Recommendsday: Kindle Offers

It’s that time of the month again, but this time it’s a tricky one as we have prime day offers going on on the ‘Zon so it’s a bit of a lottery which of these are going to last all month… but I have to say it is a really good month for deals on the recent releases.

It’s Wimbledon, so it’s maybe apt that Carrie Soto is Back is 99p at the moment – it’s also out in paperback now if you want a physical copy of the former BotW. Ali Hazelwood’s Love on the Brain came out last summer and is 99p – I assume to encourage people to buy the new one. One of my favourite not-new books of the year (oops, that’s a spoiler!) Nora Goes Off Script is 99p, again because I assume the new one is out. Once More With Feeling is also 99p which is a total bargain for Elissa Sussman’s latest and one of my favourites of the year so far. Incredibly recent BotW Mrs Nash’s Ashes is also 99p as is Fake Dates and Mooncakes. And let’s not leave of Jenn McKinlay’s Summer Reading – also 99p

I have You and Me on Vacation waiting to be read – but if you’ve read some of Emily Henry’s others – like Happy Place and Book Lovers, then fill in a gap! Also waiting to be read is the new Sarah Morgan, Summer Wedding, which is 99p. I’ve read a couple of Sarah Adam’s romances and found them too New Adult for me – but I know they’re super popular so the fact that the latest Practice Makes Perfect is 99p will be good news for them. In historical detective novels, the latest in Nicola Upson’s Josephine Tey series Dear Little Corpses is £1.99.

I read it a long time ago now, but Nick Spalding’s Bricking It is £1 – as are a bunch of his other books (some are also in Kindle Unlimited). Also from quite a long time ago but on offer is Libby Page’s The Lido, while Curtis Sittenfeld’s Rodham is £1.99. And in non fiction Caitlin Doherty’s From Here to Eternity is 99p as is former BotW The Traitor King, which is really, really worth a read.

If you’re collecting series, the Bridgerton-adjacent The Further Observations of Lady Whistledown is 99p as is the non-Bridgerton Julia Quinn The Secrets of Sir Richard Kenworthy. In other things you can find on Netflix, if you’ve watched their Wham documentary, Andrew Ridgely’s memoir Wham! George and Me is 99p.

This month’s Peter Wimsey is the brilliant Murder Must Advertise, complete with one of the best cricket matches in a book and a fascinating look at the advertising business in the 1930s. There are a couple of M C Beaton’s Agatha Raisin books on offer including one od the most recent ones – Agatha Raisin Down the Hatch and there are some Hamish MacBeth’s too – including Death of a Bore. In classic stuff, there’s a Jeeves and Wooster omnibus for 99p, as is The Color Purple, which was one of my A Level set texts back in the day. Amy Lea’s Exes and Ohs is 99p,

I bought David Sedaris’s Happy Go Lucky while writing this post, as well as Jarvis Cocker’s Good Pop, Bad Pop. And if that’s not enough books for you, I don’t know what is.

Happy Humpday everyone!
