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…
Read MoreAugust 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.
Read MoreThis book was an absolutely heartbreaking and yet incredibly easy to read emotive tale about four siblings, the children of a Rock Star, living in Malibu and coming together to overcome such an odd combination or privilege and struggle.
Read MoreDespite being quite unwell for July and it being one of the most chaotic months of my life, I'm incredibly surprised at how much I managed to read. But here they are, I actually loved every book I read this month, so they’re all here with links if you fancy picking one up yourself.
Read MoreI always seem to read more in the months where I’m busiest. Maybe it’s because I have to make the time for it. Maybe it’s because my brain is already in a state where it’s ready to take things in. Maybe it’s because I’m procrastinating, who can say really?
Anyway, without further ado, here is what I read in June…
Read MoreNormally when I’m planning a book club, I will Google the name of the book followed by “book club questions”, but for The Split by Laura Kay, this returned no useful results. Therefore, I’ve decided to publicly share the questions I’ve made for this book.
Read MoreAs 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.
Read MoreMay started off great, with me reading two books in the first week. But then I sort of slumped, so I decided to reread a favourite. As always, here’s to hoping I read more next month!
Read MoreBeth O’Leary’s books to me, are the perfect form of escapism. A light romance, with more complex characters, that allow you forget about life and just emerse yourself in another life for a short while. Here are five books you’ll enjoy, if that’s your vibe.
Read MoreI 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.
Read MoreIn 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.
Read MoreThis book has been waiting on my shelf to be read for so long. I’d been a fan of Emily Dean’s podcast, Walking the Dog, in which she walks dogs with famous faces, for some time, so when I saw this in Waterstones, I had to pick it up.
Read MoreShould I read the Bridgerton books or watch the Netflix series first? How many books are there? What order do I read the books in?
All questions that shall be answered in this guide…
Read MoreThis was one of those months where I read quite a lot in the first week, mainly the Bridgerton prequels, and then so very little for the rest of the month. But, here we are…
Read MoreWith companies bringing out “eco” or “conscious” ranges, all they’re doing is...
Admitting the rest of their products aren’t sustainably made.
Just trying to ease the emotional burden of their clients.
Pulling a PR stunt.
I started the month by reading almost an entire series in a week, but then my pace slowed down due to life just getting busy. But here is it! What I read in February.
Read MoreI read more this month than I usually do, maybe it’s the fresh start, maybe it’s the global pandemic restricting me to my house. Who’s to say?
Read MoreWith the fourth series of In Our Own Words launching in just a few weeks, I thought I’d share what my top podcasts are and why I love them.
Read MoreThis book is a wonderfully poetic yet tragic love story. At first, I found the fact that it was written in the second person quite jarring, but once you lean into it, the words take you away.
