We've seen a lot of talk about The List by Yomi Adegoke so we were very excited to read it - and we certainly weren't disappointed! Ola and her fiance Michael seem to have it all, but then his name is published online in a list of alleged abusers... #ReadingHour #BorrowBox
Next up, Miss Dior by Justine Picardie. A really gripping and fascinating memoir of a French Resistance hero who was brutally tortured and dispatched to Ravensbrück concentration, Catherine Dior, brother of Christian. Very moving. #ReadingHour

Our final recommendation for this week's #ReadingHour - The War Pianist by MandyRobothamUK/MJRobotham. Two cities. Two spies. Which woman survives? A pianist is a person who operates a radio transmitter - Marnie takes over as pianist when her grandfather is killed. A great WWII story!
The Cassandra Complex by Holly Smale 🦕 made us laugh and completely reeled us in to Cassie's story. She's never really fitted in, but when she discovers she can go back and change things, she has endless chances to fix her life! #ReadingHour
Death of A Bookseller by Alice Slater 🐌 deserves the attention it's been getting - we enjoyed this dark tale of sinister obsession. Loner Roach is fascinated by true crime - and her new colleague, fellow bookseller Laura. Laura smells of roses, everyone loves her... #ReadingHour
Hello Beautiful by Ann Napolitano is a warm story of family and betrayal. The four Padavano girls aren't just sisters but best friends too. Julia, the oldest, falls in love with Walter. He confides in Sylvie though about darkness from his past... #ReadingHour .
Next up for #ReadingHour , an unsettling and compulsive book in Homecoming by Isabel Ashdown. The Starlings gated community is idyllic - but after a party a member is found dead by the clocktower. Who knows what happened? Gripping.
First up, a summery holiday read in Beach Rivals by Georgie Tilney. Claire and Jack are opposites but they are both spending the summer running a bookshop in Bali. And sharing a flat. They are driving each other crazy, but also having fun...just like this book! #ReadingHour
