Angelic Paranoia

I've had a cold, so I got a lot of books read. What I Just Finished Reading Rosamund Heads the Chalet School by Lisa Townsend. This is a Chalet School book written by someone else. It follows the same term as Redheads, but is about the head girl, who barely appears in Redheads. I enjoyed... Continue reading

What I Just Finished Reading The Twyford Code by Janice Hallett and The Mysterious Case of the Alperton Angels by Janice Hallett. These are a similar idea to the first book: there's a mystery and it's all told in an epistolary sort of format. I enjoyed these, although I think the first book was the... Continue reading

What I Just Finished Reading Killing Eve: No Tomorrow by Luke Jennings. Interestingly, this book and the TV series completely diverged. I preferred the series, I think, since it was a lot of Eve and Villanelle being like a couple and Eve assuming that Villanelle has emotions that she doesn't have because she's a psychopath....

What I Just Finished Reading I had no internet for the whole weekend (and some of Monday) so I've got a lot of reading done recently. Killing Eve: Codename Villanelle by Luke Jennings. This was interesting. There were some elements in here that are similar to the series, but some things are totally different. Which... Continue reading

What I Just Finished Reading The Vanishing Stair and The Hand on the Wall by Maureen Johnson. It turns out that it takes three books to solve the mystery started in Truly Devious. After I finished the first one I couldn't leave it there. And I had got into it. The last two books in... Continue reading

What I Just Finished Reading Killing Eve: Codename Villanelle by Luke Jennings. This is the first book in the trilogy that the TV series is based on. I thought I'd try it since it was only £2.99, but then it turns out it's really short. And much less humorous than the TV series. I enjoyed... Continue reading

What I Just Finished Reading The Devil Rides Out by Paul O'Grady. This starts when he's 17 and stops just as he's getting into drag. The ending felt a lot like he'd just reached his word count and stopped, so came as a bit of a surprise. It was really interesting though. Childhood's End by... Continue reading

Last night I realised that I have rabbit socks and I forgot to include them in the count! They are number 108. What I Just Finished Reading The Surplus Girls by Polly Heron. This was a bit of a random pick from the library's choices for International Women's Day. It's set in the early 1920s... Continue reading

What I Just Finished Reading Quantum Leap: Pulitzer by L Elizabeth Storm. The Quantum Leap podcast said they were going to do this book next, so I re-read it. I remembered enough to know it was good, and it was good. It reminded me that everything I know about the Vietnam War I know from... Continue reading

In 2022 my book goal was to read more books than I acquired. Which would then get my to read pile down a bit. I read 9 more books than I acquired. Which is good and I achieved my goal. It just didn't get my to read pile down by much... So my 2023 book... Continue reading
