‘Black Mirror meets Tales of The Unexpected with shades of Shirley Jackson.’ - Nina Pottell - Prima Magazine

Recommended as one of the best books to read this January by Martin Chilton, The Independent’s Chief Book Critic

‘Why are you tired Jan? Because I started reading this at 11 and all of a sudden it was both finished and 2.30am... Can I recommend this novel as one to put on your radar? It’s got great characters, a truly quirky plot, and the writing kept me hooked. Another cracking book from the lovely people at Bluemoose Books.’ - Jan Carson

‘Christ On A Bike is BRILLIANT. For once I don’t really know what else to say. Just BRILLIANT.’ - Jennie Godfrey

‘I absolutely loved Christ On A Bike. It is clever, well thought out, had characters you’ll both love and hate… I was glued to it from the very first page. highly, highly recommended!’ - Jules Swain @thereadingpara

‘Strikingly original and utterly brilliant!’ - @TheBookshopMan

‘So fresh and quirky and unlike anything I’ve read before. I really urge you to give it a try.’ - @LauraPAuthor

‘Orla has an innate ability to write books that are unsettling and dark but in a very subtle way… What Orla does so well is weave in a wry humour to temper the darkness. I bloody LOVE this! It should absolutely be on your 2024 reading list.’ - @bookishchat

‘This is a brilliant novel – and one that would make for an equally brilliant TV drama. It’s clean, lean writing that never prevaricates or wastes the reader’s time. A phenomenal read from cover to cover.’ - @talesfromabsurdia

‘Finished Christ On A bike - oh my god, that ending! Such a brilliant book! Do NOT miss this one.’ - Ellie Hawkes
