A biographical novel that walks a difficult line between true fact & imagined conversation & walks it with skill, delicacy & drama: STANLEY AND ELSIE by Nicola Upson π³οΈβπ #TuesdayBookBlog wp.me/p5gEM4-3Zx
It's the final week of #MurderbytheBook Cambridge University Library, so I'm sharing some personal highlights. This claustrophobic 1926 chiller by the author of the Hornblower novels has a brilliant, ironic twist. And what a cover! See the exhibition free until Saturday lib.cam.ac.uk/murderbythebook
Last few days of #MurderByTheBookβ¦ This has been such a fabulous show - huge thanks to Cambridge University Library team and our ever wonderful exhibition curator, crime novelist Nicola Upson π³οΈβπ.
A lovely day for a book signing St Michael's Mount with Nicola Upson π³οΈβπ #TheDeadofWinter Faber Books
Probably my favourite item in #MurderByTheBook, the original manuscript of the final Poirot novel, written in wartime and hidden away until just before Agatha Christie's death. Very moving that something so deceptively fragile has such a powerful history. lib.cam.ac.uk/murderbythebook

The new Rebus play is everything you would want it to be - taut, twisty and incredibly classy. Absolutely loved it. Hope there'll be more, Ian Rankin? On Cambridge Arts Theatre for the rest of this week.
Bargain ! And read by the wonderful Jenny Funnell x
