Hello, welcome to damppebbles and to this, my sixth #CaseClosed post of the year. How can it be July already? Where have the first six months of the year gone? Are you having a good year so far? I truly hope so. We've said goodbye to June 2025 and the summer in the UK…

Hello and welcome to damppebbles. Goodbye May, hello June! I am so excited that Summer is almost here. I say 'almost' because I don't think it's quite arrived in the UK yet. As I sit here on Tuesday 2nd, looking out the window, all I can see is rain. Lots and lots and lots of rain. I also…

Hello you! Welcome to damppebbles and to my fourth #CaseClosed post of the year. April 2025 has packed its bags and left the building. It wasn't a bad month for me here on the blog. I read a few books, reviewed a few books and faffed about a bit! All good fun. Now May has arrived and I…

Hello and welcome to damppebbles, and a very happy April to you! Unbelievably we're now one quarter of the way through 2025 (HOW??!). I hope that first quarter was stuffed to the brim with the best books and your year has got off to a brilliant start. The warmest of welcomes to the third…
#CaseClosed: February 2025 | Monthly Wrap-Up #amreading #amreviewing #bookblogger #BookoftheMonth #GoodreadsChallenge #NetGalleyCheckIn #BookTwitter #booktwt #BookX #BookSky #damppebbles
Hello and welcome to damppebbles. We've waved goodbye to February 2025 (which, despite being the shortest month of the year, felt as long as 'never-ending January' did!) and we're celebrating March's arrival. Well, actually, truth be told, I'm sat in my dining room writing this post on…

Hello and the warmest of welcomes to damppebbles and to the first #CaseClosed post of 2025 (if previous attempts are anything to go by, it may also be the LAST #CaseClosed post of 2025!). If you're new to the blog and wondering what #CaseClosed is all about then please allow me to…

Hello and the warmest of welcomes to damppebbles and to the final #CaseClosed post of 2024. You may be thinking to yourself, 'oh, I don't remember seeing ANY other #CaseClosed posts last year'. Well, yes. I started 2024 with the best intentions and wanted to resurrect my monthly wrap-up post…

Hello bookish pals. Long time, no see! I've been away recuperating following an operation on my shoulder for the last month and a bit but I am delighted to confirm that I am back for the foreseeable. My shoulder has healed nicely and I returned to work at the end of last week. Not only have I missed you lovely lot in the online bookish…

Question I wish some of my colleagues asked themselves more often: Why?

Hello and the warmest of welcomes to damppebbles and the second #CaseClosed post of the year (of several years if truth be told - for context please see February's post where I admit to being quite dismal at maintaining a monthly wrap-up feature!). March felt a long old month, didn't it? Perhaps…

Hello and welcome to damppebbles. I know what you're thinking. It's probably something along the lines of 'Huh?'. For those of you new to damppebbles I expect you're wondering why I've suddenly introduced a monthly wrap-up post. For those of you who have been around a while, the 'Huh?' is probably accompanied by you shaking your…

Hello and welcome to my final post of 2023, my top ten(ish!) books of the year. ‘Ish’ because, as in previous years, I hope you can’t count 😂. It’s been another great year for books with some absolute corkers published in the last twelve months. My blogging mojo took up and…

I'm reviewing the wip (novelx4) checking for pace and continuity & inevitably doing some edit-on-the-fly. The thing is complete but for a few chapters still to be filled in. I need to get a feel for the overall shape before I do that, hence a review.
It's going well so far: no major problems; a few clarifications to add in and stuff like that. I'd like to add a bit more sparkle, though. Does anyone have magic wand I could borrow? 🌟 😁

Hello bookish friends and welcome to the highlight of your bookish year (yeah, I'm not sure about that either...) - it's the #R3COMM3ND3D2023 After Show Party. I'm mixing things up a little this year and adding an extra special…

My #PeerReview notes for the MS I'm reading include
* “my name is Petitio Principii, you begged the question, prepare to die”
* “xkcd285”
* “one does not simply walk into an analysis”
It's going to be a bit of a challenge to turn them into something actually constructive for the author before submitting 😬
