Review of The Book of Witty Women

 

Ad-PR 

Today is my stop on the Random Things blog tour for The Book of Witty Women. Published by Farrago books.

I think I mentioned a couple of months ago that I have really gotten into short stories recently. I like to read first thing in the morning in bed with a coffee and a short story is a great way to start the day for me.

When I saw the tour for this book, I knew it was one I wanted to add to my short story collection and I was not disappointed.

This book features fifteen stories and is introduced by Helen Lederer. It is the first anthology that is dedicated to comedy writing by women authors.

My favourite story was Double Date by Lucy Vine and this book allowed me to discover some new authors whose books I will now look out for.

The Challant family have been spending their summers in Beaulieu in the French Riviera for years. However, on stormy night in 1928 a terrible tragedy occurs and a young girl local boy is killed.

The four Challant children are deeply affected, especially Ines. However, as time goes by their memories of the time begin to fade.

However, local rumours swirl even as the years go by about what truly happened. In searching for the truth, what hidden family secrets are they about to reveal?

A novel full of family secrets set between the French Riviera and the Cornish coast. I loved the dual timeline of this book and I can’t wait to read more Tilly Bagshawe books.

Today is my stop on the blog tour for Seven Days by Robert Rutherford.

Alice has not seen her father for years when her sister tells her that he is on death row and has only seven days to live.

Even though they are estranged and she knows he is guilty of many things, Alice is not sure that even he is capable of murder.

With only seven days to prove his innocence, will Alice be able to do it and does she truly want to?

This is a gripping book that had me hooked from the first page. This is an amazing debut novel and I can’t wait to read more by this author.

Highly recommended for thriller fans!
