Happy St. Patrick’s Day

Carmel Harrington 17th March 2021 16th March 2021Author/writer updates! 0

I hope you are having a great day, wherever you are! I know we can’t have the day we might like to, but we can always read, can’t we? And I just so happen to know of an Irish author, who has a book with a green cover, that’s currently…

Celebrate St Patrick’s Day with Carmel

Carmel Harrington 16th March 2021 16th March 2021Author/writer updates! 0

I know we can’t celebrate St. Patrick’s Day in the usual way this year. In so many ways it feels like yesterday that the decision was made to cancel parades last year. And here we are again… But, if you would like to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day a little bit…

    Had to share this gorgeous post from @cathryanhowa Had to share this gorgeous post from @cathryanhoward who has just read #moonoverkilmorequay 💕 Posted @withregram • @cathryanhoward So obvs @happymrsh is a bestie and THE MOON OVER KILMORE QUAY, being entirely devoid of serial killers and stomach-churning crime scenes, is not my usual fare, but this book is a gem. I always enjoy Carmel’s books but this one is on another level. Its mysteries make it a real page-turner and its characters make it a lovely place to be. It’s FULL of heart and I’m warning you, it’ll SMASH yours (😭) - but put it back together again just before The End. It should really come packaged with tissues and a box of Barry’s Tea, which as a Corkonian I’m happy to say features prominently. Split between Wexford and New York, it also made me desperately want to return to NYC. Bea is on a journey of self-discovery into her past. Lucy’s heart longs for home until she meets the love of her life. From the idyllic Irish village of Kilmore Quay to the electrifying city of New York, this is the story of two women, family secrets and the voices that call you home. #MoonOverKilmoreQuay is out on May 27 in the UK/Ireland and a few days later in the USA, and available to pre-order now. I highly recommend curling up with Carmel! Thanks for sending @harpercollinsire. Published in the USA by @bookouture. 🌕 #book #books #bookstagram #bookreview #irishwriter #irishbooks #irishbookstagram #wexford #newyork #comingsoon

    True story for you all - we gifted my step daughte True story for you all - we gifted my step daughter and my mother in law, book subscription boxes courtesy of @thebookresort a few months ago. Little did we know that in a few months time, the @thebookresort would decide to include #mypearshapedlife in their monthly book boxes! Let’s just say that my stepdaughter and MIL now have more than one copy of my book 😂 was so funny to get a call from each of them to say, guess what my book was this month?! 😂 If you haven’t checked out The Book Resort as a gift option yet for a loved one, I can happily recommend them! And I can honestly say that my recommendation is not just because they like my books either 😂 A fan of what they do months before... #giftideas #bookstagram
    Happy St Patrick’s Day everyone! Could we ever h Happy St Patrick’s Day everyone! Could we ever have guessed that we’d still be in lockdown one year later? It feels quite surreal doesn’t it? However, despite this I’ve had a lovely day. This morning I joined @brentcultureservice for a special #stpatricksday online event. Thankyou to all who joined in and asked such great questions. And then this afternoon there was some exciting book news to share! I’ve signed a new deal with @bookouture in the USA and Canada. Very excited to connect with new readers in North America for my next two books. More news coming soon on #moonoverkilmorequay publication this June! Oh, and I finally had the opportunity to wear my fabulous @mise_collars too, the perfect accessory for such a big day, a gift from my SIL @evelynmoher 💕 #carmelharrington @isobelakenhead @kim_the_bookworm @jennygeras @thesohoagencyuk

Food courtesy of @cistineile - our favourite restaurant. The beef, oh my word - Delicious! I got to choose the movie - had to be a golden oldie - so hello Pretty Woman! We had such a lovely time we forgot to take a photo (eejits) and we even got out of our sweats for the occasion. 😂 You’ll have to take my word for it that we looked smoking 😂😂😂 But instead, here’s one of us on our honeymoon, taken in Las Vegas, at the Top of the World revolving restaurant. Can remember that night like it was yesterday, so romantic and full of love. Check me out flashing my engagement ring. 😂💕 We look so young! We were so young! We’ve been through so much together since then, Mr H and I. He’s my constant in a world that is forever shifting. 💕
