What a wonderful sense of humour this author @matson_taylor_ has!”All about Evie” has been my book at bedtime which has made me laugh,sometimes out loud (the opera which I love,is screaming & plinky,plonky) & cry.I’m almost finished but I don’t want it to end!Highly recommended.

READING FOR PLEASURE CHANGES LIVES! But how do we get kids to do it? Research shows these are the 3 most crucial factors:
1. Read aloud to them.
2. Give them the widest possible range of books to choose from.
3. Let them choose freely, and never dismiss their choices.

My Book Group has a new venue - Codsall Library! BUT they want us to have a name. The Group has chosen “Penguin”, so the Penguin Group we are. All read the @HazelPriorBooks , loved them and this is the reason! Thanks Sharon @StaffsLibraries was a successful meeting.

My Dad, in a care home, didn’t know me but when we played music he knew all the words. He loved music🥲

[Hazel Prior @HazelPriorBooks]

Played harp in a Care Home today... and I have to say it's (even) more rewarding than writing novels. I hope that if ever I'm in a Care Home somebody will bring live music to me.

@Booktrust Loved these books, in fact re-read some! Doesn’t matter that they are old fashioned, that’s why we like them. Reading is taking me into another world where it’s not always familiar and that’s why I love it.

[SEJ @sylviaj52]

Been to Waterstones, Shrewsbury this morning to buy the new Matson Taylor book. Good news Mr Taylor - they had sold out! 😩@matson_taylor_

[SEJ @sylviaj52]

What a long, busy day! Walk in Shrewsbury & went to @Waterstones where bought “Still Life” by Sarah Winman which was recommended by @matson_taylor. Also bought “Ellie and the Harp Maker” by @HazelPriorBooks 👍

[SEJ @sylviaj52]

Finished”Call of the Penguins” by @HazelPriorBooks last night - happy & sad😟 Loved it! Had read “Away with..” & couldn’t wait to read follow up. Didn’t disappoint, thoroughly recommend. @StaffsLibraries Might re-read @matson_taylor_ “..Evie” next cos it makes me laugh.

[SEJ @sylviaj52]

Long riverside walk in Shrewsbury & came home shattered BUT a nice surprise from my sister & family waiting. Parcel with chocolates 😋 She knows me well! @ajentscotland @HotelChocolat @OriginalShrews
