This was my WI Book Club this month. After A Thousand Splendid Suns I was hoped for something more my style. Angel of Death fitted the bill perfectly. It was a fast paced extremely dark crime thriller. I winced in places hoping it wouldn’t go into too much detail, and it didn’t.

We’re more than half way through the month and I’m really happy with my stats pages. I love writing my blog posts, more than any other of my social media pages.

My Review – Looking Good Dead by Stephen Puleston
This is book number twelve and I’ve read them all over the last eleven years. The thing I love most is they are set in north Wales where I live. Often based on Anglesey, or like this story, they frequently visit. Inspector Drake and his team of now familiar detectives are faced with a murder… Continue reading My Review – Looking Good Dead by Stephen Puleston
I’m Reading These Two Books
Yes, two fantastic reads. I’ve only started reading two books at once recently and I haven’t done it for a few months. It only works for me if one is a paperback and the other an ebook.

Book Trailers
On Netflix, I love the try before you watch. I’m talking about the film trailer, a little taster that tells you whether it is worth watching. It’s the same for books. They are so good these days. A little bit of moving magic that can tempt you in. So on that note, here are mine… Continue reading Book Trailers
A Trip Back In Time at Car Museum
Here on Anglesey we have the Tacla Taid Transport Museum. They have some wonderful old vehicles that evoke memories of a time when all the cars were different. In the early sixties we went to Scotland for a holiday in one of these Austen A30s. My auntie and uncle came in their Triumph Herald as… Continue reading A Trip Back In Time at Car Museum

When I was looking at Neil Gaimen's website, he had a page called Cool Stuff & Things. I was immediately drawn to the name. It was interesting and I wanted one on mine. So I’ve started one too. You’ll find it on the menu and from the link below. It will be a work in… Continue reading My Cool Stuff
