I've heard of that. Is it a real page turner?

Thank you! Not seen that one before.

Recommend me a book which has the biggest, most unexpected twist at the end ever.

Last night, I attended a motivational talk from Bear Grylls: adventurer, survivalist, SAS trooper, Everest-summiter, writer and TV presenter.
"𝘋𝘰𝘯'𝘵 𝘭𝘪𝘴𝘵𝘦𝘯 𝘵𝘰 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘥𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘮 𝘴𝘵𝘦𝘢𝘭𝘦𝘳𝘴. 𝘎𝘰 𝘧𝘰𝘳 𝘺𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘌𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘦𝘴𝘵. 𝘕𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘳 𝘨𝘪𝘷𝘦 𝘶𝘱."

Yep, it seems to be a polarising book.

I haven't read either, yet. What didn't you like about them?

Pretty cool! I don't know that book. What genre is it?

Tell me the name of a popular book that everybody else said they loved, and you didn't.

Thank you, Val!

Does anyone on here enjoy true crime?
I'm fascinated by the criminal psyche. What makes these people do the things they do?
And anyone who's read 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘈𝘯𝘵𝘪𝘤𝘭𝘰𝘤𝘬𝘸𝘪𝘴𝘦 𝘗𝘳𝘰𝘱𝘰𝘴𝘢𝘭 will know I had a personal involvement in O J Simpson's case!

Awarding members for service is my greatest pleasure as commander of Coast Guard.
Last night I handed out several awards, including a meritorious service award to this gentleman, without whom my life would be a lot harder.

Enjoy Shiraz's prequel, Sue! It's a little different from the rest of the series.
☕💀📚

Signed paperback copies available; the prequel is shorter than the rest of the series, so these retail at only AU$9.99. Please DM me to reserve one.

If you haven't read any of Shiraz's adventures - 𝘈 𝘉𝘭𝘰𝘰𝘥𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘳𝘴𝘵𝘺 𝘚𝘤𝘳𝘢𝘱𝘦 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘢 𝘔𝘪𝘥𝘯𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘵 𝘌𝘴𝘤𝘢𝘱𝘦 is a great introduction.

Love the classics! Thank you :)

That's definitely a great first line. Presumably it's a memoir?

Wonderful. I have a personal connection to Dickens in my hallway, a clock that stood in a pub where he drank, opposite his house at Gad's Hill.

Have you ever read a book that began, "Once upon a time..."?
How about, "It was a dark and stormy night..."?

What's the best/weirdest first line you've come across?

This animal is called an Echidna. I've seen them in the wild a few times and photographed this one this week.
It's native to Australia, about the size of medium dog and is extraordinary because it's one of only two mammals in the WORLD to lay eggs.
