The Growing Pains of Adrian Mole (Adrian Mole #2) by Sue Townsend
🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 5/5 Stars - I enjoyed this one even more. Adrian has some real and relatable struggles, but it's still hilariously funny.
The Secret Diary of Adrian Mole Aged 13 3/4 by Sue Townsend
🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 5/5 Stars - Hilarious, full of character and with plenty of social commentary, truly a master of the form.
Leviathan Falls (The Expanse #9) by James S.A. Corey – Series Finale

The Rat Catcher: A Love Story by Kim Kelly
🐀🐀🐀🐀🐀 5/5 Rats - Charming and uplifting with a fascinating historical setting and a sweet little love story.
A Room Made of Leaves by Kate Grenville
⭐⭐ 1.5/5 Stars - This does nothing remotely interesting and it pissed me off.
The Wee Free Men (Discworld #30; Tiffany Aching #1) by Terry Pratchett
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5 - Written for a younger audience but never talks down to them, and I absolutely love Tiffany!
White Noise by Don DeLillo
⭐⭐⭐ 3/5 Stars - A biting and often funny satire, but I wanted to enjoy this more than I actually did.
Nine Perfect Strangers by Liane Moriarty
⭐⭐ 2/5 Stars - Disappointing. Flat characters, boring and never went anywhere interesting.
Rouge by Mona Awad – Review & Analysis
Dark, beautiful, thematically rich and got better with every read. I’ll never look at skin care the same way again.
It Happened One Summer by Tessa Bailey
⭐⭐ 2/5 Stars - I don't think a book has ever made me cringe this much.
