Working my way through Edgar Allen Poe’s full collection of stories & poems. Never read any of his work before. Just at The Tell-Tale Heart now.

Snap by Brenda Bauer. A crime novel that was a bit different. I found it hard to get into but then I really enjoyed it as it went along. A mother leaves her three children in the car when she breaks down on the motorway, to find a phone (pre mobile days), but doesn’t come back. This obviously causes huge trauma for the family as they descend into a chaotic lifestyle. But the eldest boy is determined to find out what happened and who murdered their mother.

Divine Might: Goddesses in Greek Myth by Natalie Haynes
This book explores the stories behind the Goddesses of Greek mythology through a feminist perspective. As usual with Haynes, hugely insightful and erudie but also chatty and humorous.
