Once again I am counting down to the New Year, as with the previous two years I shall be highlighting at least one book per day to fit the prompt on that given day. The main aim for this countdown is to highlight some of my reads during the past year and to shine the spotlight on them once again (although some of the prompts relate to forthcoming reads). Today is day 27 of the countdown to 2025 and a list of prompts can be found here if you wish to join me in counting down to 2025 and casting a spotlight on some of your favourite books (if you join in please leave me a link so I can check out your book choices).
Today’s Prompt : Christmas Crackers – Ended with a bang
Small Town Horror by Ronald Malfi definitely ends on a note I didn’t expect – not necessarily a bang, but nonetheless dramatic.

Tomorrow’s prompt: Candlelight – a book that kept you up into the early hours

Today is day 27 of my countdown to 2024. Using a series of prompts each day I will post a book title that I believe fits the prompt. The aim is to highlight as many books as possible that I read from 2023 and shine the spotlight on them once again (although for some prompts I will be looking at future reads). A list of prompts can be found here if you wish to join me in counting down to 2024.
Today’s prompt: Christmas Crackers – Ended with a bang

For today’s prompt I’ve chosen a book that fits the definition very well -but I can’t say more because that would take me to the land of spoilers. Red River Seven by AJ Ryan.

Today is day 27 of my countdown to 2023. Today’s prompt is ‘Christmas Crackers’. The prompts can be found here if you want to join in. I’m hoping to use mostly books read this year. Let’s begin:
CHRISTMAS CRACKERS (Ended With A Bang)
I had a book in mind for this one as soon as I came up with the prompt. The Girl and the Moon by Mark Lawrence is the concluding book in the Book of Ice series. It’s a fantastic conclusion to the series but more than that it seems to make reference to other works by the author and it’s just so satisfying. A masterpiece.
