The Shadow Cabinet

The sequel to Her Majesty’s Royal Coven? love this book because of their portrayal of modern witches and how they might live and work, blending in with regular people. I love the politics, suspense and well written relationships between characters.

Hi, I’m Sarah, 55yrs young. I moved to Leigh on Sea for love 4 years ago and although the love didn’t last, my passion for reading stayed strong! I would really like to find/start a book club in the area. I enjoy all kinds of books and have a list of 1000 books to read before I die. I’m half way through! ☺️ I wouldn’t mind hosting books, wine and cheese nights or join an existing group.

The Graveyard Book

It’s a fantasy book about a magical world hidden in a tapestry but with the usual Clive Barker twist.
