True Crime: The Case of Dirty John Meehan

Book review: The Windsor Knot

I can almost hear you exhaling a sigh of relief that this is not a review about another Virgin River novel. I diversified! Shocking, I know. I've got a bit of a shopping problem - my mum will be dancing and jumping up and down to this admission - but I have a specific problem with buying Kindle books. Although I love the feel of having a very real book in my hands, the feel of the paper and seeing the physical progression through a story - and the feel when you break the sp
