#TheGalileoHeist (No. 3 in Sam Sedgman's Isaac Turner Investigates) is a really fun heist story that makes good use of a solar eclipse. It opens with a great action scene and the pace rarely lets up. Out 12th Feb. Thanks to #NetGalley for the ARC.

Really enjoyed the audiobook of Charlie Higson's Willie, Willie, Harry, Stee. Ideal if you enjoyed David Mitchell's book Unruly and Greg Jenner's You're Dead to Me podcast. Thanks to @netgalley.bsky.social and @harpercollins.bsky.social. Full review: snarhookedonbooks.wordpress.com/2026/01/31/w...
It's almost here! We Are Dragon by @alastairc.com is out 9th April and it is fantastic. Thrilling action alongside heartfelt moments of being human. Plus the joyous Kevin the Ant. @nosycrow.bsky.social #WeAreDragon #NetGalley Full review here: snarhookedonbooks.wordpress.com/2026/03/29/w...

Earlier this week, @alomshaha.bsky.social was chatting about how the message of loving each other should inform more public discourse (beyond religion).
So, for #KidsBooksFriday this week what kids books help kids to understand the importance of love in all its forms?

Echoing the calls for any of Alastair Chisholm's works, likewise Jonathan Stroud's (especially The Outlaws Scarlett & Browne). But it's Garth Nix's Sabriel/Old Kingdom series I have waited the longest to see adapted.
#KidsBooksFriday #UKKidLit #KidLitUK #KidLit
Diana Wynne Jones' The Chrestomanci Chronicles, Chris d'Lacey's The Last Dragon Chronicles, Angie Sage's Septimus Heap series and Jenny Nimmo's Children of the Red King series are my go-to recs. Plus the Worst Witch for those who prefer shorter books. #KidsBooksFriday
#KidLitUK #UKKidLit #KidLit
-The Animals of Farthing Wood by Colin Dann (for the animal perspective)
- Save Our Forest by Nora Dåsnes (GN about activism)
- The Beck by Anthony McGowan (appreciating nature and taking action to protect it)
- Green Rising by Wren James (teen eco superheroes)

Thanks to Toppsta for the review copy of The Monster in the Mines, the second in Jennifer Killick's Serial Chillers series. It arrived before the copy I ordered for the school library so I got to read this fun comedy horror early. snarhookedonbooks.wordpress.com/2026/02/11/t...
