Welcome to Maggie Reads

Hi, I'm Maggie (well not really, it's a nickname my husband gave to me when we were first dating).
Welcome to my blog.

I've enjoyed books from the moment I could pick one up and turn the pages.  My childhood was full of Secret Seven and Famous Five, my pre-teen years were Judy Blume and my teenage years included plenty of Jilly Cooper.

Thankfully my reading choice has developed as I've got older.

I particularly enjoy psychological thrillers, crime and drama.

I use GoodReads and various online book clubs to assist with choosing new books, and these days I mainly read on a Kindle, although I still can't help buying a real book each time I visit a book shop.

My intention is to share reviews of books I've read/am reading, in the hope that it might help you to decide from the many titles available online and in the shops.  I would also quite like to improve my writing skills, which are sadly lacking.  Rather than a few lines on Amazon stating that a book was brilliant and storyline was great, wondering how on earth I can fulfil the required number of characters to complete the 5* review, it's time I compiled a more useful and less generic response!

Here's hoping I can put my thoughts into words than people would actually like to read.
