Easy Reading - Wicked Games

So tonight I managed to devour a whole book. Yes a whole book and even better it was free on Amazon Kindle.
It was an easy read, fast flowing story with captured my concentration enough just to see who would indeed win.
I don't want to give any spoilers away but I did love the other view at the start of the chapters. I liked the writers style and how easily it all seemed to flow, it didn't take me more than 2 hours to read all 172 pages... And that was with distractions!

Its very light hearted with a touch of naughtiness as well - which is definitely my style. Romance and humour, what's not to love?! A quirky best friend would have been all the better 

What let me down was that there were so many characters it got confusing just to see a name every so often without details into them... There was a lot more that the writer could have done, areas that could have been expanded and explored. Like the games themselves or other characters. There was also time after the show which could have been included and in fact what the main character, Abby, was like before she went on the show would have given more insight to her character.

I've noticed there are more books in the series which appear to be of a similar style... Guess I know what I'm going to get next... :-D

Wicked Games - eBook by Jessica Clare

"Abby Lewis never pictured herself on the survival game show, Endurance Island. She’s just not the ‘survival’ type. But when her boss offers her a spot on the show and the opportunity of a lifetime, she packs her bags and heads to the tropics to be a contestant."

Tesco Orchard - Autumn Harvest: Free Food

So recently I joined the Tesco Orchard scheme. The scheme is basically that you try Tesco products for free or a reduced price and then give Tesco and the world your feedback about said products.

I joined up just before the "Autumn Fall" programme began and my vouchers came through in the post just before my holiday in October.
My vouchers were for £1.50 off Elfe Finest potatoes, £1 off any autumn fruits, suggested apples or pears, and £1 off root vegetables, suggested parsnips or carrots.
Alongside these I also have 3 more vouchers for 50p off each of the above to give to family or friends so they could enjoy the products too.

I spent my vouchers on a big shop one week after I came back from holiday. I brought the finest potatoes, everyday value parsnips and carrots, red gala apples and pears (can't remember the brand anymore). The apples and pears were on offer for 75p each. I have to say that the dates on the items were reasonable and in fact all of the items have lasted way beyond that anyway. I even have a few carrots, apples and pears left!

I tried the potatoes as jacket potatoes (though there weren't many large sized ones), chopped up and fried for a fry up, as chips (sliced up and put in the deep fat frier) and also as roast potatoes. Yes that one bag went that far for the two of us and the little guy. Very impressive!
We also used some of the carrots grated with soft cheese (everyday value) mixed in as a bagel filler, surprisingly this was quite filling!
