I really thought that this month was going to be a bit slow in terms of reading but alas, here I am with six books to talk about! In other news, I've got a new job in a bookshop so this is only going to get worse... or better, let's be positive! Have you read... Continue Reading →
I started this month with a cheeky Easter holiday which always means lots of reading. It's also funny how much reading you do when you don't have anything to Netflix binge!
