Two grey and white soft toy rabbits sitting side by side. One is holding a light blue Easter egg with multicoloured spots on, the other one has a large plushie daisy. Both look totally fed up with the concept of Easter.
Looks like these rabbits are done with Easter and hot cross bunny jokes already!

#BookReview Reaper by @vandasymon.bsky.social
The addictive plot is taut, pacy and poignant, and Reaper is Vanda Symon at her very best.

Child to me at school today,
"I don't like my banana pen, it smells like my dad's farts. Seriously, if you go near my dad's bum when he farts, you will DIE!!"

I once forgot myself and wished good morning to a cow! 😂
Just saw a man greet a cat,
"Hello, puss-cat. You are so fluffy! Oh my gracious, look at your fluffy tail."
He then spotted me and exclaimed, "Oh my gracious!" ❤️
❤️❤️❤️
It is always such a joy to review Doug's books! 🥰

Delighted I could recommend it again, Abir!
I agree. I'm looking forward to reading Pinnacle when it's published later this year.
Every weekend, I recommend a book I've enjoyed to Alfred FM's listeners. This week, I've chosen The Burning Grounds by @radiomukhers.bsky.social. thisisalfred.com/podcast/the-... (from about 54:14, if you fancy a listen).
