Every month amazon has a set of kindle monthly deals. Whenever there are deals of interest I post on here. Links are associate links but money goes back into the blog.
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.
Please note prices are correct at time of publishing and may be subject to change.
Where My Heart Used to Beat- Sebastian Faulks
I’m a tentative fan of Sebastian Faulks. I have loved some of his books but am a little bit off buying this one because I haven’t found the same pleasure in reading the last few of his that I have read. I will probably end up buying this one before the month is out though.

Curry Easy- Madhur Jaffrey
I’m mainly including this one because I want opinions. I want a curry cookbook, and my parents main cookbook of the type is by Madhur Jaffrey, so I think she’s a good writer to go for.
