This book is a "clear commentary on how society pushes women to their breaking point, pits them against one another, and then abandons them," Velshi says as he invites author Paula Hawkins onto the show to discuss the banning of her novel in Ron DeSantis's Florida.

Welcome back, my fellow creatives! Yup, I'm back to looking at the first five pages of various stories, for those five pages can make or break the engagement of a reader--or an agent. So, let's scope out the stories of others to see how they hook an audience! There's a lot to be said for a strong setup. At first glance, I wasn't all that keen on multiple quotes, then a prologue, then an exhibition note, and then an email. It felt like a series of post-it notes one had to sift through before finally opening the book. However, Paula Hawkins was keen to establish certain storytelling elements before embarking on the official narrative. The poet Dylan Thomas is quoted about bones, for instance, and the exhibition note mentions a bone included in a character's sculpture. The poem selected also notes that death cannot stop love, and the back of the book highlights that the artist character is—or was?—married to someone who was unfaithful to her. The email also highlights the bone of the sculpture, informing the art museum that the bone is not an animal bone as the sculpture's description states, but a human bone. So there is some hard work on narrative set-up here, even without the prologue. For I honestly wonder if we needed those two pages of the artist losing herself in the night's waters. Sure, there is a note of looking for the husband and seeing him—or not?—but considering all the other indirect approaches we have here to the narrative, why not one more instead of the first-person prologue? A letter from a friend, for instance, supporting the artist in her time of loneliness, encouraging her to seek a divorce or something. Then all the materials before the official narrative would have that sly, backdoor quality to them, a collection of clues for the reader before we are ready to begin. But that is merely this writer's opinion. The premise for the story is sound, the mystery promising before Chapter 1 begins. If you ar in need of a good mystery to carry you through these short winter days, look no further than Paula Hawkins' The Blue Hour. And what will we discover in the following story's pages?We'll have to wait and see. xxxx Read on, share on, and write on, my friends!

When Paula Hawkins dropped her pen name and switched from writing romantic comedies to thrillers, she wrote The Girl on the Train. Now she has a new book called The Blue Hour. It follows a reclusive painter named Vanessa Chapman and reflects on themes of power and legacy. Paula and Mattea Roach talk about the motivations and inspiration behind the women at the centre of her stories. 

Una puntata all'insegna del thriller "La casa dei silenzi" (Longanesi) è il nuovo romanzo di Donato Carrisi con protagonista Pietro Gerber, psicologo infantile che sottopone i suoi pazienti a ipnosi e per questo viene chiamato "l'addormentatore di bambini". Stavolta affonta il caso di Matias, 9 anni, che da un anno fa sempre lo stesso incubo: nel sogno compare una donna con i capelli neri, vestita di scuro, che non parla e lui la chiama la "signora silenziosa". Se prima Matias era un bambino allegro ed espansivo, ora è diventato asociale e apatico e soprattutto è terrorizzato all'idea di addormentarsi. Ma perché Matias fa sempre lo stesso sogno? Chi è la signora silenziosa vestita di nero? Attraverso l'ipnosi Pietro Gerber cercherà di fare chiarezza e di aiutare il bambino. Un thriller inquietante e struggente. Nella seconda parte parliamo di "L'ora blu" (Piemme - traduz. Rachele Salerno), nuovo romanzo di Paula Howkins, famosa per il thriller psicologico "La ragazza del treno", un best seller da 25 milioni di copie nel mondo e dal quale è stato tratto anche un film. Questo nuovo giallo è costruito intorno all'opera d'arte di una pittrice, Vanessa Chapman. L'artista è morta da cinque anni, ma una sua opera esposta in una mostra desta una particolare attenzione: è un insieme di elementi (legni e oggetti di recupero) contenuti in una teca di vetro, ma un antropologo forense segnala che un osso contenuto nell'opera non è una costola di artiodattilo come indicato, ma si tratta di un osso umano. Il curatore della Fondazione artistica che ha ereditato le opere di Vanessa Chapman si reca, dunque, nella piccola isola dove viveva l'artita per esaminare i suoi diari e i documenti custoditi da una sua cara amica ed esecutrice testamentaria.

Rachel and Simon speak with the novelist Paula Hawkins. Born and brought up in Zimbabwe, Paula moved to London in 1989. She worked as a journalist for 15 years, reporting on business and personal finance. Her first book, "The Money Goddess", a financial guide for women, was released in 2006. She turned to fiction in 2009, publishing "Confessions of a Reluctant Recessionista" under a pseudonym, Amy Silver. Several Silver books followed until Paula published "The Girl on the Train", a thriller, in 2015. The book became a worldwide hit, selling more than 23 million copies, and was adapted into a film starring Emily Blunt. Paula's subsequent thrillers, "Into the Water" and "A Slow Fire Burning", were also instant bestsellers. We spoke to Paula about moving from financial journalism to writing fiction, experiencing huge global success with "The Girl on the Train", and her latest novel, "The Blue Hour". A new edition of “Always Take Notes: Advice From Some Of The World's Greatest Writers” - a book drawing on our podcast interviews - is available now. The updated version now includes insights from over 100 past guests on the podcast, with new contributions from Harlan Coben, Victoria Hislop, Lee Child, Megan Nolan, Jhumpa Lahiri, Philippa Gregory, Jo Nesbø, Paul Theroux, Hisham Matar and Bettany Hughes. You can order it via ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Amazon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ or ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Waterstones⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.

Author Paula Hawkins is best known for her 2015 novel The Girl on the Train. Her new book, The Blue Hour, is also a thriller, this time set on a remote but idyllic Scottish island. The novel focuses on the death of artist Vanessa Chapman, who leaves behind her diaries and a piece of art that sets off a shocking discovery. The story that follows involves secrets, lies and murder. In today's episode, Hawkins speaks with Here & Now's Deborah Becker about how the ownership and interpretation of Vanessa's legacy is disputed among the book's other characters. They also discuss the complexity of long-term female friendships, how women are treated in the public eye and the unreliability of our own narratives.To listen to Book of the Day sponsor-free and support NPR's book coverage, sign up for Book of the Day+ at plus.npr.org/bookofthedayLearn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy

The Blue Hour by Paula Hawkins An isolated Scottish island, accessible to the mainland only twelve hours a day. A famous (some might say infamous) artist whose notoriously unfaithful husband disappeared after visiting her twenty years ago. A present-day discovery that intimately connects three people and unveils a web of secrets and lies. Welcome to Eris: an island with only one house, one inhabitant, one way out. Unreachable from the Scottish mainland for twelve hours each day. Once home to Vanessa: A famous artist whose notoriously unfaithful husband disappeared twenty years ago. Now home to Grace: A solitary creature of the tides, content in her own isolation. But when a shocking discovery is made in an art gallery far away in London, a visitor comes calling. And the secrets of Eris threaten to emerge.... Unfiltered: My Incredible Decade in Formula 1 by Guenther Steiner Formula 1 sensation Guenther Steiner, author of the number one bestseller Surviving to Drive, takes readers into the heart of his ten years running Team Haas, packed with hilarious stories and unprecedented insight into the world of elite motorsport. Fasten your seatbelts as Formula 1's favourite underdog, Guenther Steiner, takes you on a wild ride through his ten years at Team Haas. From the first seeds of his idea to establish a new F1 team to the challenges of funding and building that team from the ground up, Guenther shares the real story of the origins of Team Haas, immerses readers in the high and lows of its first decade on the grid, and opens up about his departure from the team at the end of 2023. As Guenther recalls his proudest achievements and the many, many disasters he has faced, he takes readers behind the scenes, into the pit lanes and garages, and out on to the circuits of the world's greatest race tracks. We spend time with drivers, mechanics, executives, sponsors, commentators and fans, and take in many personal moments too, all the while grappling with the big challenges and small details that keep the wheels of a Formula 1 team turning. Told in his inimitable style, packed with hugely entertaining stories, outspoken opinions and unvarnished truths, this is Guenther at his very best – insightful, opinionated and completely unfiltered.

It's nearly been a full decade since British author Paula Hawkins made a name for herself in the literary world. Crime thriller The Girl on the Train was a global number one bestseller - it sold over 23 million copies and helped solidify Hawkins' place in the crime fiction sphere. She's returned with her latest work, The Blue Hour, and fans and critics alike are calling it her best book yet. Hawkins says her strategy to keep readers hooked is to keep little plot twists coming - and encourage readers to go back and look for hints. "There are obviously lots of different ways of getting into books - and some are slow burns. But it's a great thing where you come up with an idea and think - oh yes, I can grab them with this one."

Our journey into the realm of hot, messy women embroiled in murder mysteries continues with Tate Taylor's adaptation of Paula Hawkins' The Girl On The Train. Much like The Woman in the Window, the film stars an A-list actress (here it's Emily Blunt) doing great work in a lukewarm thriller.Plus: female archetypes, too complicated plotting, our desire for a miniseries, and comparisons to male-centric "prestige" pictures like OppenheimerWanna connect with the show?> Gena: @genadoesthings (Instagram/BlueSky)> Jenn: @jennferatu> Joe: @bstolemyremoteIf you like the podcast, please rate, review, and subscribe!

The Main Character A Novel By Jaclyn Goldis A bestselling thriller author arranges a luxury train trip that is not what it appears to be in this electrifying modern homage to Agatha Christie from the author of the “tense and twisty” (Julie Clark, New York Times bestselling author) The Chateau. Reclusive, mysterious author Ginevra Ex is famous for her unusual approach to crafting her big bestselling thrillers: she hires real people and conducts intensive interviews, then fictionalizes them. Her latest main character, Rory, is thrilled when Ginevra presents her with an extravagant bonus—a lavish trip along Italy's Mediterranean coast on the famed, newly renovated Orient Express. But when Rory boards the train, she's stunned to discover that her brother, her best friend, and even her ex-fiancé are passengers, as well. All invited by Ginevra, all hiding secrets. With each stop, from Cinque Terre to Rome to Positano, it becomes increasingly clear that Ginevra has masterminded the ultimate real life twisty plot with Rory as her main character. And as Ginevra's deceptions mount, and the lies and machinations of Rory's travel companions pile up, Rory begins to fear that her trip will culminate like one of Ginevra's books: with a murder or two. In the opulent compartments of the iconic train, Rory must untangle the shocking reasons why Ginevra wanted them all aboard—and to what deadly end. Another stylish and compulsively readable mystery from Jaclyn Goldis, this is the perfect read for fans of Ruth Ware, Lucy Foley, and Paula Hawkins.

The Dark within them is described as "In this gripping psychological thriller, faith-healer Amber thinks she's found peace in Lehi, the small Mormon town she's moved her family to. But when a death affects her family, her safe haven shatters. As the tight-knit community closes ranks to protect its secrets at all costs, Amber's world unravels. With her beliefs shaken and nothing feeling certain anymore, she's faced with an impossible choice: take a leap of faith to protect her loved ones, or risk losing everything by exposing the truth.   "Luring you in with promises of happily ever after, Kenyon quickly removes any feelings of comfort..." - The Northern Bookworm   But how far is too far when it comes to protecting those you love?   A TIGHT-KNIT MORMON COMMUNITY.   BODIES BURIED IN THE GARDEN.   ONE FAMILY DIVIDED.   ‘intense and compelling…an enormously talented writer' - Shabnom Khanom   'a honed and beautiful writing style…not your usual psychological thriller' - Debz Hobbs-Wyatt   'A must-read for fans of Paula Hawkins or M. T. Edvarsson... A gripping, pacy thriller.'  - Northern Soul Magazine   'Isolated and without even her faith to call on, Amber is left to determine how much darkness is really within her.' - The Northern Bookworm   'Kenyon's book explores themes of faith, motherhood and marriage with nuance. At the same time, the plot propels the reader forward with the claustrophobic tension of recent grip-lit classics like The Girl on the Train.' - Crime Culture Magazine" For more details go to: https://www.flyonthewallpress.co.uk/

Writing topics include creative process and inspiration, first drafts, novel structure, writing in fragments, point of view, narrative momentum, voice, description and writing at sentence level. Charlotte is such a beautiful writer but also a seasoned writer - she's been to all the places you, as a writer, have been or are heading towards - and she generously shares all that wisdom.

We're on vacation until the start of season four, Thursday, February 2nd! Until then, we're ecstatic to share the shows still rent-free in our heads. Here's a favorite from our archives. After losing her home, her husband, sobriety, and career, one woman is on the brink of losing her mind. Her life is dwarfed into a series of train rides, back and forth, morning and evening, until she sees something no one else sees from the window of her commute. She's witnessed something that propels her into a series of events, forever changing her life and the lives of everyone she knows. The woman's name is Rachel. The book, The Girl on the Train.

On this week's episode of Currently Reading, we have a very special GROUP Show for you! All 5 of us got together to play a Bookish game of Never Have I Ever, and we think you'll love it! As per usual, time-stamped show notes are below with references to every book and resource we mentioned in this episode. If you'd like to listen first and not spoil the surprise, don't scroll down!  New: we are now including transcripts of the episode (this link only works on the main site). These are generated by AI, so they may not be perfectly accurate, but we want to increase accessibility for our fans! *Please note that all book titles linked below are Bookshop affiliate links. Your cost is the same, but a small portion of your purchase will come back to us to help offset the costs of the show. If you'd prefer to shop on Amazon, you can still do so here through our main storefront. Anything you buy there (even your laundry detergent, if you recently got obsessed with switching up your laundry game) kicks a small amount back to us.
