Hi friends, this month I’ll be taking you into the past. Not too far away, just under a century or so. To be specific, the books I chose this month all take place during the Second World War; from 1939 to 1945. A time when my grandparents were bringing up my parents. So, if you want to see which titles I’ll be reviewing, press below please…

Hi friends, this week’s review is one I decided to add at the last minute.

Hi everyone, this week’s post is an enchanting non-fiction book I found quite by chance fairly recently. When you see the word “Map” I know you’ll probably think, ‘Oh no, it’s some weird atlas’ but rest assured this is not any ordinary atlas. This, my friends, is a book created by writers and illustrators of the world’s they create in their books. So, I hope to see you below to read my review…

Hello friends, this week’s selection is an adult book, a guide of sorts shall we say. It spoke to me from the shelves and made me pick it up. Wouldn’t it have been romantic if I had read this while lounging somewhere tropical? Sadly, the truth was that I ended up reading it on my lunch breaks at work to several raised eyebrows from colleagues who were piqued at the title. So, if you’re up for it, press the button below to find out more…

Hi everyone, this last week’s post is a review of an enchanting title that begins a series of diverse reads re-imagining the cult classic that is Jane Austen’s Pride and prejudice. I believe that even if forewarned, one can’t assume much from just a mere review post. You will have to let your curiosity wander through and find out if this read and its subsequent installments fulfill all requirements…

Hi friends, this June I’m celebrating a theme that’s dear to my heart: Sisterhood!! To paraphrase our esteemed Jane Austen; “It’s a truth universally acknowledged that, within any family that’s made up of girls lies an unbreakable bond of sisterhood…” Yes, this month I’m planning on focusing on that unique bond I share with my sister, and the sisters around me. Hope to see you below so I can regale you with what’s in store for you later…
