A Recipe for Disaster by Belinda Missen
I loved this sweet light-hearted romance. Perfect summer holiday read! The story is a simple tale of two people, perfect for each other, torn apart by life circumstances. It is a perfect read on the beach, or travelling or even just sitting in the garden! Easy to pick up and read a few pages and then go off and do whatever needs doing, to return later and pick up where you left off. The story…

The Date by Louise Jensen
MOMOBOOKDIARY highly recommends this gripping new release from the awesome Louise Jensen. I loved this exciting five star read. Louise Jensen always writes with such passion you can tell that the subject has been fully researched to ensure the story is told perfectly and accurately. I had not heard of the condition that this book focuses on – prosopagnosia – which is commonly known as Face Blindness. The lead character is unable to recognise anyone after…

A Mind Polluted by Martin Geraghty
MoMoBookDiary highly recommends this gripping debut novel from Martin Geraghty. I was hooked from the first page of Martin Geraghty’s awesome debut novel. I read it in two sittings and was up until after 2am unable to sleep until I reached the final page – and then for some time afterwards as Connor’s story swirled around inside my head. I am still thinking of the emotional rollercoaster from this gritty and dark tale a few…

And So It Began by Owen Mullen (Delaney #1)
An explosive crime thriller form a best-selling author. Synopsis PI Vincent Delaney thought he was done with the NOPD until a string of seemingly unrelated child murders brings an unexpected invitation from the FBI, and his old boss. A serial killer is roaming the South, preying on children appearing in pageants, and the police want him to go undercover using his own family. Accepting would mean lying to people he loves and maybe even putting…

Then. Now. Always. by Isabelle Broom
MoMo’s Book Diary highly recommends this latest release from the wonderfully talented Isabelle Broom. Isabelle Broom has done it again. I had never heard of the town Mojacar on the south coast of Spain before reading this book yet now I have a strong desire to make time to go and discover this town for myself. Isabelle Broom has a way of writing that takes you deep inside…

Before The Devil Knows You’re Dead by Owen Mullen
WOW…. This book is way above a recommended read! I have to say I really enjoyed Owen Mullen’s first two books featuring PI Charlie Cameron – Games People Play and Old Friends and New Enemies – and have been recommending them both to everyone I speak to. Owen Mullen writes a fantastic thrilling third novel, Before The Devil Knows You’re Dead which is even better than the first two! I really cannot get enough of…

The Yellow Envelope by Kim Dinan
Kim Dinan has given us a fascinating memoir telling of her journey, with her husband, around the world. As they prepared to set off on their adventure, their friends gave them a yellow envelope containing $1,000 for them to use for those in need on their journey. Whilst I found the descriptive way the author talks of the places visited very interesting, I would have preferred to read more of this than the sections which…

The Idea of You by Amanda Prowse
MoMo’s Book Diary highly recommends the latest Amanda Prowse release. Be warned – you will be left an emotional wreck but it is worth it! Amanda Prowse is an incredibly talented author who writes poignant and moving books that will have you hooked in the opening pages and does not let go until the last word.

The Silent Wife by Kerry Fisher
MoMo’s Book Diary recommends Kerry Fisher’s latest novel ‘The Silent Wife’. It is packed full of family secrets and earth shattering betrayals that will leave your mouth open in disbelief again and again. The characters are brought to life in such a way you can easily relate to their individual personalities. The Farinelli family certainly has high expectations! The author expertly looks at the complicated relationships with step-children, in-laws, and the constant reminders of the first…

Sins of the Father by Sheryl Browne
Another fantastic new release from the amazingly talented author Sheryl Browne. Sins of the Father is the second instalment featuring DI Matthew Adams. I would recommend reading “After She’s Gone” first but it can be read as a stand-alone novel. Sheryl once again has given us a tense nail-biting thriller that will have you reading page after page, chapter after chapter. The characters are believable, and mostly likeable. After getting to know DI Matthew Adams…

After She’s Gone by Sheryl Browne
A fantastic new release from the amazingly talented author Sheryl Browne. In “After She’s Gone” Sheryl has given us a gripping thriller that had me eagerly turning page after page. The characters are brought to life in a way that only Sheryl can do. I felt true empathy for each and every character, even Patrick Sullivan at times. DI Matthew Adams and his family have been through so much but he still has so much…

Old Friends and New Enemies by Owen Mullen
I enjoyed Old Friends and New Enemies, the second PI Charlie Cameron novel and give it a thrilling recommendation to all. The book is mainly set in Glasgow, as was the first novel – Games People Play. This should be read after the first book but can also be read as a stand alone novel. The author knows his way around Glasgow and brings the city alive in his descriptive writing. This gripping instalment had…

The Girl Before by J.P. Delaney
I was lucky enough to be one of the few chosen to read a sampler of this novel in November 2016. I rated the sample highly and I am very pleased to say now that I have read the full novel I would again recommend this as a fascinating read. The book is cleverly told from two different people, at two different times….but their stories are linked in such a way that you just have…

Games People Play by Owen Mullen
MoMo Book Diary enjoyed Games People Play, Owen Mullen’s brilliant novel set in Glasgow. The book is mainly set in Glasgow and I loved the way the author used the language, and could even hear the rough glaswegian accents coming through. This well written story had me hooked from the introduction and on tender-hooks through to the nail-biting conclusion. Private Investigator, Charlie Cameron is a complex character which the author demonstrates though the telling of…

MoMo’s Book Diary recommends this as a witty read. This is the second book in Helen Cox’s Starlight Diner series. I have not yet read the first book but have purchased it to read now so I can catch up with the story of Esther. This second book revolves around the character Bonnie who didn’t feature in the first book so you will miss nothing by reading…

MoMo’s Book Diary recommends this emotional family tale. This is the first Amanda Prowse book I have read. My first impression is that Amanda Prowse is an exceptional novelist who has deeply researched this storyline. In this heart-wrenching novel we are introduced to Freya and Lockie and their two daughters, Charlotte and Lexi and taken on an emotional rollercoaster of a journey with them as they are plunged into a nightmare situation. What starts out…
