Hello lovely book people, how are you doing? It's August. I'm not entirely sure how that's happened as it only seems like yesterday we were welcoming in the New Year. It'll be Christmas before we know it 😐😳. I'm already seeing a lot of Christmas books being offered up…

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. 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…

#CaseClosed: December 2024 | Monthly Wrap-Up #amreading #amreviewing #bookblogger #BookoftheMonth #GoodreadsChallenge #NetGalleyCheckIn #BookTwitter #booktwt #BookX #damppebbles
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…
I know I promised myself I’d start Silo (which I did and I’m HOOKED), but this was part of a #GoodreadsChallenge. #TheMysteryGuest by #NitaProse is another short and no frills cozy mystery. Molly the Maid is delight to follow along as she gets tangled up in another mystery.
