Just finished this! Lamplighters author Emma Stonex returns with a dark, powerful page-turner - a story full of pain and loneliness but also love and redemption. A very sophisticated and moving psychological thriller. Out in May!

Where my Fourth Wing fans at? I'm finding myself unreasonably excited about Onyx Storm... tell me I'm not alone. I absolutely do not have time for a re-read of FW and IF but am close to ditching everything and doing it anyway

Tragic lesson of hero who tried to fix rugby: a brain cannot be replaced Gloucester fan Tom Morris, who died from brain cancer at the age of 46, cared deeply about the game and worked tirelessly to help protect players from head injuries

Incredibly proud of the legend that was Tom Morris. Tomorrow the Sunday Times publishes this wonderful tribute to our friend, who gave so much of himself to improve the sport he loved and make rugby safer for the players. A hero indeed.

What's the best audiobook you've read this year? Doesn't need to be a 2024 book. Just finished BEFORE WE WERE YOURS by Lisa Wingate; I started it for research, not expecting much from it, but it turned out to be incredibly moving & compelling. www.audible.co.uk/pd/Before-We...
