Thrilling books and gripping stories, all in one place.
My first Jack Reacher book - and my new favorite action hero! I'm not sure how I never read a Lee Child book before, but it was about damn time, because Jack Reacher is right up my alley! If you've been living under a rock like me, Jack Reacher is an ex-military loner who has... Continue Reading →

The most terrifying book you'll ever read - and it's all true! I love thrillers. Thrillers, horror, mysteries, crime and action, whatever it is, I love reading and watching things that can make my heart beat faster. So when I first discovered the true crime genre at some point in my early teens, I was... Continue Reading →
The very definition of a murder mystery! I'm sure if you looked up mystery in the dictionary, you'd find Agatha Christie there, if not this exact novel as an example.

That's not to say I didn't have to read things, I just didn't have to read loads of old books from some arbitrary, outdated list. But I'm trying... Continue Reading →
As an archaeologist I'm always fascinated by books and authors who dare play with history. Whether it is in fantastical worlds that only draw inspirations from our own, like Tolkien; historical mysteries and conspiracies like those woven by Dan Brown; or those incredible tales set in a more accurate past like Conn Iggulden. No matter... Continue Reading →
I've got a new favorite type of science fiction, and it's whatever Andy Weir writes! I never read the Martian. I never read a lot of things, but I never read the Martian either. I saw the movie though, and I liked it enough to remember Andy Weir's name when I saw Project Hail Mary... Continue Reading →
