Showcase Sunday #5: Precious Thing by Colette McBeth

Showcase Sunday is hosted by the lovely Vicky at Books, Biscuits and Tea. It's a chance for bloggers to show of their weekly book swag and an opportunity to meet other bloggers and talk about all things bookish! 


I had a lovely surprise waiting for me in the letter box yesterday morning, it was my first book from Bookbridgr! 

If you're a book blogger that hasn't yet signed up to the Bookbridgr network yet, I'd highly recommend it. It gives bloggers the chance to request books to review on their blogs. The site hosts a range of different genres, authors and book tours. 

When I first signed up and noticed Precious Thing, I knew I had to make a request. It's a psychological thriller that has been compared to Gone Girl in some reviews. Colette McBeth explores the theme of jealousy in female friendships and has been quoted that her main source of inspiration came from a friendship she had herself whilst in school. 

I'm really looking forward to reading this! I haven't read many psychological thrillers, but the one's I have I've really enjoyed. I have high hopes for this. 

Let me know what books you've brought, borrowed or received this week!

    Isn't Bookbridgr brilliant? It makes it so much easier to request books and see what's coming up in the next few months! I've reviewed two titles of them so far (A Heart Bent Out of Shape + Forgive Me, Leonard Peacock), both of which I thoroughly enjoyed. Hope you enjoy Precious Thing too!

      I didn't realise Forgive me, Leonard Peacock was on Bookbridgr. I've been wanting to read that for a while, it sounds brilliant!

      Yes, it's the first one I saw and I instantly requested it as I too wanted to read it for a while. It's even more amazing that I expected it to be, so if it's still up there do request it!
