Pam (Durham)

I am totally obsessed with the tudor era, I'm reading : the shardlake series at the moment. But I do read other history non fiction, especially the medieval period. Also non fiction books on these eras and sometimes other periods in all aspects of history. I tend to read several books at a time, it doesn't get confusing, that's just the way I am!

Pam recommends:

Very interesting plot, gets you guessing on who is the person who's doing the murders, set in the tudor times.

Books&tea30 (Durham)

I enjoy all types of genres and will read any recommendations given. I’ve read all my life but recently very much got back into reading. I’m looking to read some good books but also the social aspect of a book club, leaving the house, social interaction and potentially making friends (which is very hard to do at the age of 30!) rather than sit with a hot drink, a book and my dog or boyfriend to unload my thoughts and feelings of the book onto.

Books&tea30 recommends:

Powerless by Lauren Roberts
Powerless
by Lauren Roberts | Buy this book
The first fantasy book I ever read. Such an easy read. Romantacy. Such a good plot and a very good/ shocking plot twist at the end which had me itching to read the next books!

The Last Kingdom by Bernard Cornwell
The Last Kingdom

Perhaps my favourite historical fiction series of all time, it follows the life of Uhtred of Bebbanburg (modern day Bamburgh) and his quest to recover his lost birthright. Every time I read these books I get lost in the world of 10th century England
