Dear FictionAddicts, I know it’s been a minute. As usual I went into hibernation mode without notice. I’m sorry guys but I’m back now. Who missed me?  What a way to kick of the weekend, which I know is the biggest scam of all time because before close and open your eyes, it's all gone. I’m sure you all are itching to know which books are up next so I’ll just get to it without any annoying preamble.  This month we’ll read  Behind Closed Doors by B.A. Paris and It’s Always The Husband by Michele Campbell . Behind Closed Doors, B.A.Paris: Everyone knows a couple like Jack and Grace. He has looks and wealth, she has charm and elegance. You might not want to like them but you do. You’d like to know Grace better. But it’s difficult, because you realise Jack and Grace are never apart. Some might call this true love. Others might ask why Grace never answers the phone. Or why she can never meet for coffee, even when she doesn’t work. How can she cook such...

Fiction addicts get in here! Hellooo its AUGUST and I have a confession to make. You see, I’ve been   putting the books on out here from month to month but I only just caught up with the books of the month this July. What I mean is that I post of the books of the month but I don’t actually read the book of the month. I actually read the books of the last month.   Can you imagine that? Well that’s what happens when life gets in the way of my reading.   I had to read three books from previous posts this July just to catch up. I pushed myself hard. Now that my confession is out of the way, I feel relieved. I trust we were pleased with An American Marriage and The Girl on the Train . I get the feeling that An American Marriage will be made into a TV series or movie. It was a very nice read with so many likeable quotes. This month we will read, The Woman in the Window and Little Fires Everywhere The Woman in the Window by A.J Finn: Anna Fox lives alone ...

As she beings to mix in New York high society, Lou meets Joshua Ryan, a man who brings with him a whisper of her past. Before long she is torn between Fifth Avenue wh...

I’m glad it’s over now and it is with so much joy in my heart that I welcome you all to the Month of  Love … February. May your hearts ever swell and burst with love and may you never run out of love.

This month we’ll be reading, Lily has not always had it easy, but that’s never stopped her from working hard for the life she wants.

Helloooo Fiction Addicts reading me from all over the world.  Happy Independence Celebrations Nigeria! May the labours of all our heroes past never be in vain. I trust we are all enjoying the holiday. As always, I’m sorry the post is one day late as a result of circumstances beyond my control. September was an awesome month for me and I’m sure you all had a September to remember. I really do hope you had loads of fun with the books of the last month. I particularly found them unputdownable. I always said to myself  until there were no chapters left. This month we will be reading Paula Hawkins’ INTO THE WATER .

Into the Water : Women in a small British town have been downing since 1679 at a place popularly known as the Drowning Pool. Danielle Abbot, an award winning wr...

Wow! I can hardly believe it’s August.  July was a good month in more ways than one and I’m sure you all had fun with last month’s book of the month. The book of the month for August is Can You Keep a Secret by Sophie Kinsella. Emma Corrigan is a young lady with a huge heart, a nervous flyer and more than a few secrets. Sitting on a turbulent plane and thinking it might be her last moments, she starts spewing her secrets with reckless abandon to the American gentleman sitting next to her on the plane, but she’s too frightened to even notice. She tells him all her fibs about her size, how she is not sure she has a g-spot, how the coffee at work is horrible, how she once threw a trouble client file in the bin, just to mention a few. She survives the turbulence and finds out the next day at work that the American from the plane is her new boss at the mega corporation which she works for. She soon realizes that he remembers everything she said on the flight . Things c...
