Every month amazon has a set of kindle monthly deals. This in the post where I talk about any books which are of interest.
So I’m going to briefly talk about the books I’ve read which are on offer, and those that I have bought myself. Why I liked them/bought them, and what they are about. End links are to the amazon page, any other links are to my reviews. Amazon links are affiliate links but any money made goes back into the blog (e.g. for giveaways)
Please note prices are correct at time of publishing and may be subject to change.
I’ve read a few QI books and they are interesting whilst still being easy reads. I’ve not read either of the two on offer so I will probably buy them
You can buy The Second Book of General Ignorance…here (only £2.29) or the Book of Advanced Banter…here (also only £2.29)
This is the first book in the Clovenhoof series (I’ve read Pigeonwings too). It’s about the devil being banished too earth. Rather funny. The boyfriend has compared it to Good Omens (which I haven’t read yet)
You can buy it…here (only £0.99)
Middlesex is one of those books that people have to read to really get. It is a must read, I loved it. It’s about Cal, and how she finds out she’s a hermaphrodite.
You can buy it…here. (only £2.99)
I don’t know why these books about language are so frequently reduced because they are really good. Interesting, funny, conversational. The Etymologicon is probably the best of the group
You can buy it…here (only £0.99)
I’ve read a few of Pam Jenoff‘s war books recently so I’m quite interested in The Winter Guest. It’s about two sisters during WW2 who shelter an injured enemy paratrooper.
You can buy it…here (only £0.99)
This one is on The Rory List which is why I’m thinking of buying it, although I’m shying away because apparently it’s rather graphic. It’s an autobiography of Mötley Crüe.
You can buy it…here (only £0.99)
I like the gothic type atmosphere in Kate Morton books. The House at Riverton is about the circumstances around a poet’s suicide.
You can buy it…here (only £1.69)
I really like Picoult books, they always make me think. The Pact is about two teenagers who make a pact to commit suicide together, but only one dies and the other is arrested for her murder.
You can buy it…here (only £1.49)
I’ve read and loved Sebastian Barry’s The Secret Scripture, if you’re going to buy one of the Barry books I would recommend this one. I’ve also read The Temporary Gentleman and A Long Long Way which are good but not fantastic. On Canaan’s Side is the only one on special offer which I haven’t read, and I may buy it in my quest to find something as good as The Secret Scripture.
Buy The Secret Scripture… here (only £2.59)
Buy A Long, Long Way… here (only £2.59)
Buy The Temporary Gentleman… here (only £2.29)
Buy On Canaan’s Side… here (only £1.69)
