Happy Friday my lovely bookworms. I am currently travelling home from holiday. But today I’m really excited to be ending the blog tour for Something Certain, Maybe by Sara Barnard. This is also my current read for the train ride. It’s been so long since I read a book by Sara and I’d forgotten how much I loved her writing.

Something Certain, Maybe is a […]

The last time I did a wrap up post it was April and I said I had the best reading month. Well I’ve beaten that and I’m so happy. I think with the horrible UK heatwave a few weeks ago, all I did was read as I was too hot to sleep. I would also say that this […]

Hello my lovely readers. Happy Thursday evening – I hope everyone is staying cool. I am so very glad it’s the weekend tomorrow! Today I thought I would bring you a series review for a change.

Happy Weekend my lovely readers. It’s been a week since my last post – [Insert post] – it’s been quite a busy week at work and lots of travel disruptuon as well so I’ve been getting home pretty late and super tired.

I can’t believe I haven’t done one but I think it’s largely down to not reading much at all and I felt it wasn’t worth it. As you can see from the title of my post […]
