Good morning everyone! Today I’ve got a book Spotlight for The Book Of Eve by Meg Clothier. I’m hugely excited for this book and must admit to squealing when I received it. It sounds fantastic and that cover is simply gorgeous. I can’t wait to read this soon!
Thanks so much to the lovely Rosie from Headline for my copy of this book!

Out 2nd March 2023!
Book Synopsis:
In the name of the Father, not a word of this. Her letters are forbidden.
Beatrice is the convent’s librarian. For years, she has shunned the company of her sisters, finding solace only with her manuscripts.
Then, one carnival night, two women, bleeding and stricken, are abandoned outside the convent’s walls. Moments from death, one of them presses something into Beatrice’s hands: a bewitching book whose pages have a dangerous life of their own.
But men of the faith want the book destroyed, and a zealous preacher has tracked it to her door. Her sisters’ lives – or her obsession. Beatrice must decide.
The book’s voice is growing stronger.
An ancient power uncoils.
Will she dare to listen?
