Book Lovers by Linda M Priestley

Book lovers is not just a love story.  It's also a geography trip to Wales and a bit of intrigue too.

It's a nice gentle tale about books, lots of books, which was quite funny reading on a Kindle.  I did get annoyed with some of the characters' behaviour, but then, if it was "boy meets girl, they like each other lots, the end" it wouldn't be a very long story.

Even though this is classed in the Romance section, the romance plays a bit part to Amy's story.  I thought the bits with Debbie's cancer were very well written and also Amy's frustrations with being pushed out.

In all, a good read.

Earth Magic by Linda M Priestley

Linda M Priestly is also know as Linda Gruchy author of the gritty Death in Spiggs Wood.  Even though that book has the word "wood" in the title, that's as close as it would get to this book that's full of flowers and weeds and vegetables and planting in an allotment.

Earth Magic is rather a magical tale of two young people who come across each other unexpectedly and help each other where they thought no one could help them.  That sounds a bit soppy, but this story is not soppy at all.  It's just lovely.

If you picked it up recently, bump it to the top of your pile.  It's not a long story, which is good as once you start, you won't be able to put it down.
