About I receive free copies of books, mainly crime fiction, particularly golden age era authors but also general fiction, supernatural and horror titles, thrillers (particularly noir), classics, humour, biographies, autobiographies and travel. I review them on Amazon, Waterstones, Facebook, Goodreads and other sites. I am also a great fan of audiobooks and have been a member of Audible since March 2009. In that time I have managed to build a library of 2,793 titles!

In addition to adult books I am also a keen reader/listener of children's and young adults' titles. My mother was a keen reader which encouraged me in my love of books and I brought up my own children to read and enjoy books, my view being that books are not an occasional treat, they are essential to intellectual growth in the same way that a healthy diet is essential to a healthy body. I now enjoy passing on my love of books to their children.

I used to work in the library service as librarian for the elderly and housebound but, following an accident I became disabled and was unable to continue in that job. I then went to work at a local girls' secondary school as a Teaching Assistant and was training to be an English teacher. However in my final year an aneurism in my brain burst and although I got my degree I was not well enough to do my PGCE. In 2013 I was retired early as my health was deteriorating and I have now been bed ridden for some years. However every cloud has a silver lining and I spend my time doing what I love best, reading and listening to audiobooks. I started by reviewing purchases on Amazon and as friends were always asking me for recommendations, I started to put reviews on my Facebook page. From there I have expanded to my other social media sites and am considering starting a blog.
