Welcome to What The Book! I'm a freelance writer/editor by day, running my own games media website alongside my partner. In my spare time, I've often got my nose stuck in a book. I love crime/thrillers, with the odd bit of women's fiction thrown in. Here you'll find my book reviews, recommendations and musings on all things book-related.
