It.... definitely doesn't help, thanks

I just can't quite believe it, last time I looked I'm sure both our kids were approximately 10

Yikes....

The bookshops in Bath are amazing. My 16yo and I have managed to buy 11 books between us today and that was us showing remarkable restraint...

Ah Lorna sending so much love, you will all be in my thoughts

Oh no, Lorna, thinking of you all

Sending you all love, glad he is getting a stent and hope he's home and feeling much better very soon

So anyway Catch Your Death by Ravena Guron is a fun murder mystery that I basically read in 24 hours and it is *not* on the YA book prize shortlist

So proud of myself until I realised I'd read the wrong book for a shortlist.... 😢

It won't win as I think the Carnegie tends to go to more serious, heavy themes and older books. Steady for This is great but it's funny (so, so, so funny) and funny books don't win the Carnegie sadly
