It’s the second Wednesday of the month, so it’s time for some more Kindle offers. And I’m not going to lie, given that it’s Valentine’s Day this month, I was expecting more romances on offer than I actually found. But hey, maybe this is counter programming?
Lets star with the romances I did find though. There’s an older Katie Fforde Living Dangerously, Casey McQuiston’s Red, White and Royal Blue, Kirsty Greenwood’s The Love of My Afterlife, How to End a Love Story (which I had some reservations about), recent release (and even more recently mentioned) Not in My Book and one of the Christina Laurens I haven’t read – Love and Other Words.
There are a few intriguing looking new releases on offer – like Frances White’s Voyage of the Damned, which claims “if Agatha Christie wrote fantasy, this would be it” which is quite the claim and almost enough to get me to buy it without reading a sample for 99p. But not quite enough because I’m working on that impulse control, so I have the sample on the Kindle now.
If you want to start the Rivers of London series ahead of the next book this summer, the first book is 99p this month. There are a couple of Agatha Christies on offer too – Sparkling Cyanide and Nemesis. Also in old favourites there’s Memoirs of a Geisha, which I first read at uni and is way better than the movie of it is.
In stuff I have but haven’t read yet, there’s T J Klune’s retelling of Pinoccio In the Lives of Puppets and Stephanie Garber’s Caravel.
Two Discworld books to flag this month – I Shall Wear Midnight from the Tiffany Aching middle grade series is 99p and Feet of Clay from the Watch sequence is £1.99. There’s a Georgette Heyer murder mystery, Death in the Stocks, on offer at 99p as well as a few romances including one of my all time favourites in Devil’s Cub and short story collection Pistols for Two at £1.99.
Happy Humpday!
