Welcome to our more intimate corner of the internet where we share our love of words and writing through book reviews, writing tips and advice, author interviews, all things literary and anything else that matters to us.
We are Jon and Caz Cole, and we love our life amidst books, music, movies, all things literary, and more. You can find us on city trips, at music gigs, in bookshops and vinyl stores.

Former journalist Jon is an author and historian with a special interest in WWII and modern-day technologies. He also has a keen interest in sports (a fan of Portsmouth FC since his father first took him to Fratton Park) and is a movie and music buff. Ask him a question about a film or a band/song. Nine times out of ten, he’ll give you the answer!
Caz, an editor and writer, made a life-changing move from the Netherlands to the UK, a country she’s always admired for the culture, history, charming villages, bustling cities, stunning countryside, and unique bookstores. She is passionate about words and history, a lover of books, music, and Greek myths, and fascinated by philosophy and psychology.
