we finished High Rise Mystery and it was a huge hit. They loved trying to solve and debate about who the murderer was. My more reluctant readers are keen to read the next adventure of Nik and Norva, which is fantastic. Now to go find a copy. #GreatRead

my class and I are loving your book High-Rise Mystery. I asked them to create some character profiles with what they have found out so far and they were so keen for me to share them with you. They absolutely love Nik and Norva 🥰 and the way the story is told.

I've really enjoyed The Good Turn by - the choice of our Staff Book Club from the 2023 list. Fun, pacey and heart-warming, it also tackles some very mature themes. I look forward to discussing it with my colleagues soon!

Literally everyone in this #Succession episode deserves an Emmy. Every single performance is real and raw and consistent with who these characters are.

not only is public transport free in Brussels, but they even have a bus called "Not The 48" which takes you to a mystery location if you're feeling a bit down or you just don't have anything to do that day
something for other cities to consider
