This was a really entertaining and funny novella which I read in one sitting. I haven’t read The Curvy Girls Club but this worked well as a standalone read.

He hates being pigeonholed … More Frank Derrick’s Holiday of a Lifetime by J B Morrison

So I was so pleased to have the chance to review this book about a cookbook ghostwriter. What I thought: I really enjoyed this … More Too Many Cooks by Dana Bate
