Hi there – my name’s Simon. Lovely to meet you!
I’ve been blogging about books since 2007, with a focus on novels by women from between the World Wars, though I’ll dart a bit around other genres and periods. But basically, if you imagine a housewife in 1930, then you can probably picture my reading taste.
I love Jesus, cats, napping, the soap opera Neighbours, and baking. And, yes, of course books. I live in a little village in Oxfordshire, and am almost at book-capacity in my one-bed flat.
I also co-host the podcast ‘Tea or Books?’, where Rachel and I debate the difficult decisions of books and reading. Find it in your podcast app of choice!
Would love to hear from you, so do jump into the comments – or you can find me in any of these places:

p.s. feel free to get in touch to talk about review copies, though I tend not to review self-published authors or books that fall outside my preferred genres. If you are a publisher at a reprint publishing house then EMAIL ME RIGHT NOW PLS. I don’t take paid reviews and I’m unlikely to take part in book tours, though there are exceptions.
