Half-way through the book and I was well and truly glued to my kindle. But - and I'm loath to say this - I'm afraid the ending

We All Have Our Secrets: A twisty, page-turning summer drama

Billie Eilish’s title song is not the only tune with a starring role in Craig’s final outing. Although this news has been overlooked in English-speaking media, the film prominently features a song from an artist whose own life of glamour mixed with sadness attracts legions of French-speaking gay fans. Queer Bond fan and Sexuality Studies graduate Läne Bonertz dissects how the song perfectly complements the ‘othered’ world of 007 and considers how its inclusion could foreshadow the fates of No Time To Die’s characters.Touching in many ways and a story that proves that blood needn't be shared to form a familial bond, We All Have Our Secrets engages the reader thoroughly. Yes, both James Bond and Dalida are understood as mostly heterosexual; but it is their exceptional circumstances that remove them from accessing those pillars of “happiness” defined by Ahmed. As Bond quips in Thunderball, “you can’t win them all”, and it is the decadence of his profession – a glamour that appeals to queer and heterosexual fans alike - that ultimately deprives him of more traditional aspirations of love and family. It is the absence of these features of heteronormativity – these indicators of happiness – that allows us to contextualize both their experiences as queer. ‘Et la vie continuera’ Wow! I was hooked right from the start, as Emily, a busy midwife, was coping with her shift and her love life until it all started to unravel. As she sought solace with her father, she met Francoise, his new carer, a woman with a hidden agenda. I do like a book that keeps me on my toes, and I was certainly invested in the story and wanted to find out the truth. Well written, this had me thinking, and does really ask the question what would you do for a loved one, in their end stages of life. We all have our secrets it’s true but 93 year old Harold Gentle, his midwife daughter Emily and his new carer Françoise have more than most. The story is told by Françoise and Emily in the present and by Henry from 1945.

This book was unlike any of Corry's previous books. It felt so much more epic. It spanned many locations and was a really intriguing slow burn. There are are a couple of small twists, but nothing you won't see coming. And btw, Jane Corry, Hair analysis is done by evaluating hair structure and DNA from cells attached to the root of the hair. So cutting hair to send off for testing just isn't going to cut it.M: Look, if it’s an error, it’s on my shoulders, fair and square. I’ve dedicated my life to defending this country. I believe in defending the principles of this. But we used to be able to get into a room with the enemy, we could look him in the eye. And now the enemy is just floating in the ether. We don’t even know what they’re after. Lyutsifer Safin: No. We’ve just developed different methods for the same goal. Only your skills die with your body. Mine will survive long after I’m gone. And life is all about leaving something behind. Isn’t it? Francoise is a young French woman who arrived in Cornwall to see Harold Gentle, when he answered the door he had assumed she had come about an advertisement he had put out looking for a carer. Francoise had not put him right as to why she was there. She had experience after nursing her mum as she was dying, she had also worked in a home in France starting as a cleaner but then becoming a carer with end of life patients. But what is she really doing in Cornwall and why has she gone to see Harold Gentle? Was she after money? The house? what does she want from Harold Gentle? Emily made one bad decision, and now her career could be over. Her family home on the Cornish coast is the only place where she feels safe. But when she arrives, there's a stranger living with her father. Emily doesn't trust the beautiful young woman, convinced that she's telling one lie after another.

Robin’s review of We All Have Our Secrets - Goodreads

Lyutsifer Safin: The thing that no one wants to admit is that most people want things to happen to them. We tell each other lies about the fight for free will and independence, but we don’t really want that. We want to be told how to live, and then die when we are not looking. People want oblivion, and a few of us are born to build it for them. So, here I am, their invisible god, sneaking under their skin. I wasn't convinced on the plot at first. It seemed pretty tame at first but it definitely became more interesting as the story went along. Both women already don't get along from the moment they met, but it all seems to get worse when they are suspicious of each others activities. And this is where the good part in book ends.

OK, so it's made out of plastic, and we'll have a look now at the components that make up the Row-bot - what makes it really special. James Bond: [over radio] Madeleine, you have made the most beautiful thing I have ever seen. She’s perfect. Because she came from you. Systém ochrany proti kopírování měl obecně k dispozici jen malou nebo žádnou obranu, protože všechna jeho tajemství jsou viditelná prostřednictvím simulace.
