I am a big lover of writing craft books. I read a lot of them, and I read a variety. Many have interesting tips, great advice, and can be written really well. Unfortunately, How to Write Your First Novel is not one of them. This book is for absolute, complete beginners. The problem, I think, isContinueContinue reading “How To Write Your First Novel – Sophie King [Books]”

January / February / March Part 1 / March Part 2 / April Part 1 Welcome to my April Reading Wrap Up, Part 2! Like March, I read a lot in April. 18 books in total.

Jeff Wayne’s The War of the Worlds [Books]
Yep, another Audible Drama. Going into this, I expected something…different. I really should have read more about this version before getting it. What I wanted was, essentially, an audio version of the musical, though I suppose that would technically just be the album then, wouldn’t it? Anyway. That aside, and putting away my disappointment atContinueContinue reading “Jeff Wayne’s The War of the Worlds [Books]”

The Twilight Zone Radio Dramas, Volume 1 [Books]
Can you tell I am absolutely loving Audible? I try to mix up what I get, and so far I’ve tried non-fiction, full cast, fiction single person narration, and now The Twilight Zone Radio Dramas. Having grown up in the UK, The Twilight Zone wasn’t something I had access to. Not long after we first got together, IContinueContinue reading “The Twilight Zone Radio Dramas, Volume 1 [Books]”
