My first post – and the first book I will be reviewing

Hello there, and welcome to the first post of this blog!

So, to introduce the first book which I will be reviewing (once I have finished reading it). Bitter Orange by Claire Fuller.

Many of you will have read, or at least heard of, Claire Fuller’s previous novels, ‘Swimming Lessons’ and ‘Our Endless Numbered Days’, the latter I have read. Our Endless Numbered Days (especially the ending!) is still a book which comes to mind whenever anyone asks for a good book to read. I have not yet read Swimming Lessons, but I have only heard positive comments about it.

Bitter Orange is, therefore, a book which I was looking forward to reading – and almost 50 pages in, it has not disappointed. But any further details will be left for the actual book review, which I hope to have on my blog very shortly.

On that note, I had better continue reading Bitter Orange so I can get my blog post together. Thank you very much for joining, and I hope you join again when my first book review is ready.
