Pieces of a Lie by Rowena Holloway
Looking for your next thriller read?..... I was flattered when Rowena Holloway contacted me and asked me to review her book, Pieces of a Lie. After the initial flattery, I did (which is quite usual for me) become a little panicky. What if the book wasn't for me? How would…
I’ve finished reading ‘Confessions of a Qantas flight attendant’…….
I will admit, I had a 'meh' attitude about reading this book. I had come off the back of reading two, great, YA fiction books and I thought this might be just a very long tabloid expose, but this book turned out to be something else indeed. Owen doesn't just…
A vintage book treat….
I have been working my little writer butt off lately, so thought I would reward myself by buying a little treat. I was browsing the internet and this little gem appeared before my eyes. It's a kitsch 1950's cookbook in mint condition with the most adorable illustrations. I was surprised…
TV Review Coming Soon….. American Horror Story – Coven
Series 2 of American horror story became so dark, twisted and terrifying that I could barely continue to watch. I am a glutton for punishment, and do like to scare myself silly now and again so have chosen to watch and review Season 3 - Coven. The series so far…

Sample Chapter… Koshin and the Cow
Here is a sample draft of the opening of my next book for children. It's called Koshin and the Cow. Enjoy! Koshin stepped out the front door, eyes blinking as they adjusted to the hot bright morning sun. The heat burned instantly on the back of his neck as…
Book Review…. A Gender Handbook for Western Man
A Gender Handbook For Western Man. This book will polarise. No doubt. You may read it and choke on your own anger at author Elder George’s points of view (as I did on occasion). Or you may agree with his strong, often radical views on why we in the Western…
Book Review – A Slap In The Face…
Finally my review is here for A Slap in the face by William B. I thoroughly enjoyed this book and the strange thing is it didn’t teach me anything new about insults. Being English I have sarcasm down pat and insulting each other at dinner parties and thinking we are…
How do you sleep after watching a nightmare?….
Reviewing American Horror Story - Asylum for Novastream TV is a pretty tough gig. Slick production, great acting, all the best bits of those horror movies you loved as a teenager, so whats the problem? The problem is that as an adult the bad people seem that little bit more real,…
Going to the country.. gonna eat a lot of peaches…
As you may know I was asked to review Peaches for Monsieur Le Cure for Random House. Here is my review, enjoy! I was a little apprehensive reading Peaches for Monsieur Le Cure as I hadn’t read Chocolat and was unsure if I would understand the characters or get into…
