Heartfelt and deeply relatable, Eighteen Months is a moving portrait of one family’s struggles and growth during Covid.

...I really like this concept. Just got back from a week in Juan-Les-Pins where I read 7 books, fiction & non-fiction, including these. Empathy injection: tick. 2/2

"The real reason we read is to get an injection of empathy, to help ourselves break out of the shell of our experiences & enter other human lives, so that we can understand this business of being alive just a little bit better." Andrew Marr's intro to Melanie Reid's book. 1/2

If you're a fiction reader, who is always on the lookout for recommendations of books they might enjoy, I've written a series of blog posts which might be of interest. This is the most recent, from last summer. See what you think? Happy reading!

5 years on from the first Covid lockdown - & I think most of our memories of what happened when are quite hazy. If you'd find it interesting to revisit our recent history, have a look at the opening pages of my fourth novel, 'Eighteen Months', here: https://t.co/5lCHLH94M7

Read this in one day today, sitting by a pool in Juan-les-Pins - really enjoyed it. Thank you Yael van der Wouden.

Just finished (and really enjoyed) @ChimamandaReal's latest novel 'Dream Count'.

This phrase struck me: 'In the jungle of the internet, there still existed the kindness of strangers'.

I really hope so.

"..The acknowledgements provide a fleeting moment of intimate connection with the person behind the text, & thus they are so much more than just a list of names." From the @UniofYork student literary magazine. 2/2

[jillberrywrites @jillberrywrites]

Do you read the 'Acknowledgements' at the end of a novel? I really enjoyed this piece in the @UniofYork student literary magazine: https://t.co/rvnNe1QQRd 1/2
