🚨 ONE week to go 🚨

Don't miss this gripping, heart-wrenching and timely thriller from Anna Sharpe!

Pre-order your copy of #NotesOnADrowning now: geni.us/NotesOnADrow...

Just found out the 6K run I signed up for is actually 12K, so if anyone wants to pray for me, that would be great 💀

My first read of 2025! Cheating because I started it in sunnier climes in 2024, but it's really very good. The grief, family and love are all so well-drawn #Intermezzo

I’ve known @maggiesmithpoet.bsky.social since before she went viral and it’s so weird to see our books on the same end-of-year roundups.

A box of my copies of my new thriller arrived! I acted like an entirely normal person. Notes on a Drowning is out 23 January. Pre order now from your bookseller of choice.

My favourite reads/listens of 2024!
