Come take a seat and tell us about the stories that have got you gripped this week/month/year.

Is it a new book, or something you’ve read before?

We also have cake and drinks to keep you refreshed through the night.

Oh that’s quite the haul you’re going through.

I’m currently reading two.

A graphic novel series called Username by Joe Sugg, for a little light reading.

I’ve just started a new one called Realm of Lore and Lies by Clare Wright.

I’m also repeating an audiobook called Natives by Akala when driving.

Oh, I’ve not read much of George RR Martin since A Dance with Dragons.

How are you finding it?

If he hasn’t asked for it, leave it a bit longer, don’t want to rush if you’re enjoying it!

Is it part of series or a standalone novel?

It's an old one he wrote before ASOIF, an American gothic vampire novel in the vein of Anne Rice. Quite enjoying it! He didn't ask for it back so I don't think there's a rush, I just feel bad 😅

I was not aware Guillermo Del Toro had his hand in novel writing too, that seems like one to have a look at.

I loved The Passage! Gave me vibes of The Stand by Stephen King.

It definitely sounds intriguing, the film was one I enjoyed.
