Fiction - The Ghost Woods by C.J. Cooke Author of The Lighthouse Witches and The Nesting, CJ Cooke creates pitch perfect eerie reads. Her unnerving gothic tales of folklore and the unexplained have that curious habit of sliding beneath your skin and prickling uneasily up your neck. | | |
Non Fiction The Golden Mole by Katherine Rundell A pangolin's tongue is longer than its body. It keeps it furled in a nifty pouch near the hip. A swift flies 200,000 miles in its lifetime. That's far enough to get to the moon and back – then back to the moon. There's a fable that storks deliver babies. In fact, the Nazis used them to air-drop propaganda. | | |
