What I Read in September 2021

I only read two books in September, one at the very beginning of the month, and the second right at the end. I realise, however, that if I’m going to hit my goal of 52, I need to get back into the habit of reading daily! But here are the two books I read this month…

What I Read in August 2021

August has well and truly slipped away, I'm actually incredibly surprised about how much I read this month even though I say this every single month. August has gone incredibly quickly but I'm also incredibly proud of everything that achieved, not just what I've read, but how I’ve adapted to the situations that I put myself in, and I do think life will be better for it. Because of these changes, I've had maybe a little bit more time to read, so you will notice as you go through this list that I have definitely reread some favourites to get me back into the swing of things. But here we go, this is what I read in August.

Anyway, without further ado, here is what I read in June…

The Comfort Book by Matt Haig

As you all probably know by now, I am a huge fan of Matt Haig’s writing. Whilst in his fiction, he builds fantastical worlds you can't help but dive into, his non-fiction books, to me, have always been so comforting. This, is no exception.

You and Me on Vacation by Emily Henry

I really enjoyed this book, it was light and easy with the classic romance you'd love to read by the pool somewhere sunny. The characters are well built, and the structure of the book allows you to really understand the decisions they make and why - excellent character development.

What I Read in April 2021

In April, I read very little. I’ve felt quite overwhelmed, not only by life, but by the ever increasing stack of books I have to read and the rate at which it is growing. I’m obviously very grateful to be in this position, but I think I do need to accept that I do not have time to read them all. That being said, here are the two books I did mange to read this month.
