That's funny Aveline.

I'm also wary of authors who give other authors glowing reviews.

Oh yes, I love that.

I was lured by the blurb on the back of a book recently. It said " The new Hillary Mantel. " what a load of tosh that turned out to be. That should teach me not to trust the back of a book in Tescos again.

Roll on Waterstones reopening.

So true Aveline and Ilovecheese also "another book in this exciting series" potboiler to earn even more money.

Sounds about right Aveline

Also "side splittingly funny" mildly amusing.
