I just finished this book on @audible and savoured every word. I think listening to Michelle Obama speak was the best way to inhale this book. So many words of wisdom and powerful everyday moments. A light for positive action on topics of ethnicity, race, women and children. I miss the Obamas ... ❤️ @michelleobama #becoming #inspiringreads

Phew! 🤗That moment when you read through the manuscript you put aside before Christmas ... and discover it is better than you originally thought. ************************************* All that hard work and daydreaming last year was like a present to my 2019 self 🎁******************************************************Good luck to all the writers out there plugging away on their current manuscript. 😘❤️🤛************************************* So excited to be on the home run for this manuscript for #book3 — at least home run of the first draft! Now all I have to do is work out #whodunnit 🤞😉 #historicalfiction #dualtimeframe #tripletimeframe #mystery #amwriting
“Kirsty Manning weaves together little-known threads of WWII history, family secrets, the past and the present into a page-turning, beautiful novel.” —— Heather Morris, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Tattooist of Auschwitz. ******************************************************So pleased to share my debut US and Canadian cover by @williammorrowbooks and @harpercollinsus for ‘Song of The Jade Lily’ (The Jade Lily in Australia and NZ). Out in May. 🇺🇸🇨🇦*****************************************************Will also be out in the UK in May. 🇬🇧******************************************************Grateful to the talented and wise Heather Morris for her lovely cover quote. ❤️😘 #debutauthor #USdebut #historicalfiction#worldwartwobook #shanghai
I’ve been doing a tonne of driving over the holidays ... and also now kids are back at school. I love having a podcast, or talking book, that the teens, tween and I can all enjoy! And who doesn’t love a Greek god? 😉 It’s @stephenfryactually retelling the myths and legends. It will have you all hooked, I promise! #audible #mythos #stephenfry
Lunch ...
My friend @sallyhepworth has her latest novel out this week. I read an early copy and frankly, you should read it too! A mother-in-law murdered ... tricky and complex family relationships all round. Super-clever book. Also, Sally’s writing is funny and sharp and sassy. What’s not to love? #themotherinlaw
