To play along, just answer the following three (3) questions…
• What are you currently reading?
• What did you recently finish reading?
• What do you think you’ll read next?
I am currently reading The Winter Foundlings by Kate Rhodes the third in the Alice Quentin series, I read the second one A Killing of Angels .
Blurb
The girl was lying on the steps of the Foundling Museum, dressed all in white.
Four girls have disappeared in North London. Three are already dead.
Britain’s most prolific child killer, Louis Kinsella, has been locked up in Northwood high-security hospital for over a decade. Now more innocents are being slaughtered, and they all have a connection to his earlier crimes.
Psychologist Alice Quentin is doing research at Northwood. She was hoping for a break from her hectic London life, but she’ll do anything to help save a child – even if it means forming a relationship with a charismatic, ruthless murderer.
But Kinsella is slow to give away his secrets, and time is running out for the latest kidnap victim, who is simply trying to survive… Amazon
I have just finished a book written (in part) by my favourite author Erin Kelly. Broachurch was based on a British hit TV series written by Chris Chibnall.

Next I am going to read Your Beautiful Lies by Louise Douglas which has a beautiful cover and it’s set at the time of the strikes of the 1980’s which I remember well.
Blurb
Annie Howarth is living a restless life in a restless town. It’s 1987 and for a mining community in South Yorkshire, the strikes mean tensions are running high. Then a murdered girl is found on the moors and the anxiety levels are pushed to a dangerous breaking point.
Married to the Chief of Police, Annie should feel safe – William can be secretive, though surely whatever he’s hiding is for her own good.
But Annie is keeping her own secrets. Ten years ago the man she loved was ripped from her life in a scandal that still haunts the both of them, and now his return will put her family, her marriage, even her life, at risk. NetGalley

Broadchurch is very big here in the UK but I have to admit that I haven’t seen it yet! I have a couple of Erin Kelly’s books on my wishlist but so far I haven’t read any yet. This is my first WWW!

Hi Sarah welcome to WWW! I’m very slow on the uptake and so I missed the TV series (in the UK) but I’m going to make sure I catch the second series which I think is coming out soon. Erin Kelly is one of my favourite authors my favourite being The Burning Air.

Yeah liking the sound of Your Beautiful Lies too. I LOVED Broadchurch! Not sure I’d want to read the book though, with knowing who the killer was.

Yes I have to admit I’m not sure whether I’d have been as motivated to read it knowing the ending, but I probably would have done as I love Erin Kelly’s writing.

Cleo – Oh, I like the cover of Your Beautiful Lies too. And that setting and context (the couple who are keeping things from each other) are also appealing – great setup for a mystery. I’ll be keen to see what you think of that one.

The cover really appealed to me and that premise should have some legs… I’ll let you know what my verdict is.

Wait – the book was based off of the TV show Broadchurch and not the the other way around? That’s interesting. Loved the show and now may have to read the book.

I really like the cover of Winter Foundlings–but I don’t think a book about innocents being slaughtered is going to make it onto my TBR! 🙂

No, I didn’t think that choice would be your cup of tea! It is good though…. for us more bloodthirsty types

Aargh! Dilemma! I have The Winter Foundlings and Your Beautiful Lies! I’m going to have to squeeze them in in my reading itinerary – assuming Cleo gives it the thumbs up, obviously. Her taste is SOOO reliable! Apologies, I’m not sure if I made some daft mistake trying to post my list, sorry if I wasted anyone’s time searching!
