I love to read, it helps to relax me and I can’t resist being taking into other worlds, other lives and imaginations. I’ve just finished re-reading Philip Pulman’s Dark Materials trilogy, I love the books which are aimed at young adults but are incredible stories that I’ve enjoyed too. Maybe you’ve seen the film, The Golden Compass? This is based on the first book in the series, Northern Lights. Why have I been re-reading them? Well, because the books were published 22 years ago, but now there is a brand new succession to the series beginning with ‘La Belle Savauge’ which will be released next month. I, for one, am truly excited and you can pre-order this book now at Waterstones for half price.
Don’t forget that you can also get cash back for Waterstone’s purchases from TopCashback.
Each recipe has been tried and tested (and tested again!) to ensure the book is packed with no-fuss, budget-friendly dishes that you can rustle up, any day of the week. With over 130 recipes, and chapters on Chicken, Beef, Pork, Lamb, Fish, Eggs, Veg, Salads, Pasta, Rice & Noodles and Sweet Things, there’s plenty of quick and easy recipe inspiration to choose from.
You can get this new hardback book from Jamie Oliver for just £13! That’s another half price bargain!
I might try the Northern Lights books again soon. I did read the first one and enjoyed it, but didn't get around to reading the rest and now I need to reread the first because I've forgotten.
Great suggestions. Off to get the Jamie Oliver one and see are currently reading the David Walliams ones
Some great book choices there – I love Marion Keys and we have see the Northern Lights trilogy on the stage which was amazing. I will have to order hubby the new Philip Pullman xx
I found they get better as you go along the series, my son couldn't get into the second book, The Subtle Knife, but I thought it was better than the first.
I'm having the Jamie Oliver one myself 🙂
wow, I'd love to see it on stage! Marion Keyes is great, I love her storytelling.
Oooh, these look great. I keep meaning to get the Handmaids Tale
I have recently started reading again, after rediscovering it on a camping holiday. You've got some great choices here, all great authors.
My son loves the Philip Pullman books so he'll be pleased to hear there is a new one coming out and I just saw the GWR 2018 annual today, all my kids adore these. Mich x
Great selection. We loved World's Worst Children 2
