Well here they are. My top 10 books of 2024! ✨️ What a year. Can't wait to do it all again in 2025 🥰📚 #BookSky

Sorry I have neglected you so much, Bluesky. I genuinely forget you exist 90% of the time. Please forgive me xxx ANYWAY, has anyone read this? A fabulous revenge thriller from the one and only Jackie Kabler. It's twisty, suspenseful and SO full of drama. Let me know if you plan on picking it up! 🩷

This book was WILD! 🤯 Dark, twisted and intense - I inhaled it! I was mesmerised by Lizzy’s gorgeous writing as well as a toxic world of a cult-like wellness group striving for perfection. Fascinating, gripping and unpredictable. An easy 5⭐️! @bylizzybarber.bsky.social @daturabooks.bsky.social

The Cliffhanger is such a triumph of a thriller, a real edge-of-your-seat, atmospheric, all-consuming read you won’t be able to put down! It's flawlessly written and completely unpredictable. I already know it’s one of my books of the year! 😍 @emilyfreud.bsky.social

I really enjoyed Jeremy Vine's brand new book, Murder On Line One - a brilliantly plotted, wonderfully layered whodunnit, filled with a quirky cast of characters and an intriguing mystery to solve. Bravo, Jez! 👏 Out now! Thank you @harpercollins.bsky.social for my proof! 🫶

My little April wrap up! 📚 My favourite read in April was Into The Fire by @gdwrightwrites.bsky.social. Some of you may know that Gary is really ill in hospital, so please keep him in your thoughts, and maybe consider pre-ordering Into The Fire, out 5th June. It is INCREDIBLE 🧡 Get well soon, Gaz!

Well @gdwrightwrites.bsky.social has done it again! Another gut-wrenching, absorbing, completely addictive second novel to rival his debut of 2024! 👏  A tense, captivating, tightly-plotted crime drama with emotion and feeling tucked into every corner. SO brilliant! Out 5th June, don't miss it! 🔥🧡

March Wrap Up! 📚 I needed to slow the pace this month, but still managed to read some brilliant books. My favourite being The New Neighbours 💙 What was your favourite book this month? 😊✨️ @lucynichol.bsky.social @callieuntitled.bsky.social

As expected, this book was bloody GREAT! A fantastic feminist revenge thriller. It’s funny, dark and twisted, and you will LOVE Sally! 🍸 Thrilling, clever and addictive. Perfect for fans of Dexter! 🩸 Thank you Avon Books for my proof 🫶 @lucynichol.bsky.social ❤️

Just out of interest, is Bluesky working for you, bookstagrammers/authors? It was so great at the start for me, now it is not 😅

Will I ever get over this book? Absolutely NOT 💔 Refreshing and beautiful, yet heartbreaking and reflective. A must read! Thank you @faberbooks.bsky.social for my proof 🫶 Full review on the blog!

Happy publication day, Claire! 💙🥳 The New Neighbours is anxiety-inducing, so incredibly suspenseful and had the best twist! Will there ever be a book from Claire that I won’t rate five stars?! Fabulous 👏👏 Out now! Go grab it! 💙 Thank you @michaeljbooks.bsky.social for my proof! 🫶

Happy Publication Day to @guymorpuss.bsky.social's A Trial in Three Acts! Thank you to @viperbooks.bsky.social for sending me over a proof of this. Much appreciated! Read my review here: bethreadscrime.com/2025/02/21/a...

February wrap up! 📚 Another great month with such varying genres! My favourite reads have to be Famous Last Words and The Daughter. Perfect thrillers! 💙 What was your favourite book of Feb? 😊 #BookSky

When a mysterious box lands on your doorstep containing a signed proof of Lisa Jewell's new book, DON'T LET HIM IN. Thank you Cornerstone Press and Lisa 🥹😍 SO EXCITED FOR THIS BOOK!! #BookSky

Writing is hard. I admire every single author and everyone else who is writing. I've written 200 words on a new chapter and I hate them all 😂

Life Number Nine is SO much more than a love story. It’s the thought-provoking journey of two imperfect beings. It’s about the meaning of soulmates. It’s about the fascinating idea that what if we’ve met each other before, in different lifetimes? ❤️ Loved it! #BookSky💙📚

Do you buy multiple copies of your favourite book? One of my favourite books is Wrong Place Wrong Time by Gillian McAllister. I have 3 different hardbacks and the eBook! If you haven't read it yet, I definitely recommend! #BookSky 💙📚

My book of the year. I’m calling it, right now!! Is it a thriller? God yes. But it’s also a love story, and I’ve never read anything so different, so striking, so beautiful in all my life. Tense, gripping, absorbing. What a book! #BookSky @gillianmauthor.bsky.social @michaeljbooks.bsky.social 💙📚

It felt SO good to be reunited with Torben Helle! 💚 A complex, witty and thoroughly entertaining mystery with brilliant characters and a baffling new murder to solve. Another triumph, @oskarjensen.bsky.social! Brilliantly done! 😊 Helle's Hound is out NOW! 🐾 @viperbooks.bsky.social

When pre-orders arrive before the release date 👌😍 @gillianmauthor.bsky.social @michaeljbooks.bsky.social #BookSky 💙📚

I loved everything about this one! It’s a dark psychological suspense/police procedural/crime thriller just dripping with atmosphere and tension. An easy five star for me! Publishes 30th Jan. Thank you @hqstories.bsky.social for my copy! 😊 @amyjordanbooks.bsky.social #BookSky 💙📚

📚✍️ AUTHOR SPOTLIGHT ✍️📚 For #thrillerthursday this week I’m focusing on one of my favourite authors, @tmloganauthor.bsky.social Next week I am EXTREMELY excited to be going to a book event with Tim & @alicefeeney.com, literally can’t wait! 🙌 What’s your favourite #TMLogan book? 📖 #BookSky📚💙

Who's read Orbital? What did you think? 🌌 I thought it was stunning! It paints a breathtaking picture of our world, of space and everything in between, and makes us question our existence. Fascinating! 💜 Thanks @tinabakerbooks.bsky.social for recommending this for one of my 12 in 2025 reads! 🥰

Cannot tell you how EXCITED I am for @thebookparty.bsky.social in July!! So many AMAZING author announcements already!! 🫶📚

🤯🤯 This is the definition of a page turner! A pacy, suspenseful thriller that hooked me in from the start + had me speed-reading until that glorious, unexpected finale. The paperback of @linwoodbarclay.bsky.social's I WILL RUIN YOU out on Thursday! Thanks for my early copy @hqstories.bsky.social 💚

My most anticipated read of the year! 🤩 Pre-orders make such a difference! amzn.eu/d/5TmLGdM

Jeeeeez! My first read of 2025 was incredible! 😲👏 An intense, atmospheric novel about 81 y/o Maggie who meets her match in the form of 8 y/o Otto. It’s an uncontrollable game of cat and mouse, where revenge slowly gets more horrific until it spirals into something nightmarish... 😈 LOVED! #BookSky

Hellooo #BookSky! I've not posted for a while because I haven't a clue what day it is and I'm just generally enjoying doing nothing 😆 BUT here is my wrap up for December 📚 It's been a Christmassy, murder-y, memoir-y month with a hint of the Black Death. Quite the mix 😂 What's been your favourite?

I sneaked into the stock room in Eason in Dun Laoghaire earlier today to sign the first copies of The Killing Sense! These are literally the first finished copies I've seen 😍 - it's embargoed until next Thursday, when these will be looking for their new homes! Let me take you to Paris... 📚💙

Thank you for my giveaway win, @thestucumminsreads.bsky.social 😍😍 I've been meaning to read some @claremackwrites.bsky.social so 2025 will be the year 🥳👑 #BookSky💙📚

✨ REVIEW ✨ Nothing To See Here by @susanlewisbooks.bsky.social This had me hooked the whole time! The story is told through both main character POV and snippets of a true crime podcast, it really keeps things interesting! Recommended if you love a good mystery thriller & true crime podcasts #ad

Thank you @shonaholmes23.bsky.social 😍😍 My giveaway win of Jack Jordan's REDEMPTION has arrived and I am so excited to read this!! ❤️ Have you read it? #BookSky

I love all these books so much for so many different reasons. Can't wait to share my top 10 of the year with you all after Christmas! #BookSky 💙📚

One of the most beautifully written Christmassy books I’ve read! An idyllic setting in the Isle of Skye, a heartwarming storyline at the best time of year, finding love, discovering lost family and embracing new family. So brilliant! ✨️ Loved it, @suemoorcroftauthor.bsky.social 🥰 #BookSky 💙📚
