You know how sometimes, you need a book to thoroughly absorb you, to escape into reading for a bit? Just me? Well, I read this in June, and I was going through a rough time so I knew I wanted an epic fantasy, something I could truly become absorbed into and forget about the realContinue reading “Book Review – The Priory of the Orange Tree by Samantha Shannon”

Book Review- The Daughter of Dr Moreau by Sylvia Moreno-Garcia
I saw this book and curiosity got the better of me. A few months ago I read the Island of Dr moreau by HG Wells which I thoroughly enjoyed. So, when I read that Sylvia Moreno-Garcia, the author of Mexican Gothic which I also enjoyed was continuing Wells’ world I couldn’t help but give itContinue reading “Book Review- The Daughter of Dr Moreau by Sylvia Moreno-Garcia”
Book Review- New Beginnings at the Old Bakehouse by Christie Barlow
As you may know by now I love my cosy rom com reads. Combine this with a foodie aspect and you are onto a complete winner for me. Christie Barlow’s new novel did this and much more. You may have already read my reviews for some of her previous novels in the Love Heart LaneContinue reading “Book Review- New Beginnings at the Old Bakehouse by Christie Barlow”
Book Review – Book Lovers by Emily Henry
If you tell me there is a book out where the setting is book related (i.e., publishers, library etc) I will go straight for it. So, when I heard about Book Lovers I couldn’t resist. This time we travel to America to Nora Stephens, a cut throat literary agent who doesn’t have much luck inContinue reading “Book Review – Book Lovers by Emily Henry”

Book Review – The New Doctor at Peony Practice by Christie Barlow
I last read a book from the Love Heart Lane series back in December last year, which was Heartcross Castle.

ThisContinue reading “Book Review – The New Doctor at Peony Practice by Christie Barlow”

Book Review – Immanuel by Matthew McConaught
If you had said to me a year ago I would be reading a book about religion, cults and megachurches, I would have laughed in your face. I am not particularly a religious person, although I do believe in something else out there, I am just not sure what. But, I was gifted this byContinue reading “Book Review – Immanuel by Matthew McConaught”
Book Review – Summer at Primrose Tower by Annie Robertson
This book was gifted to me by Welbeck Publishing in exchange for an honest review. I read the author’s previous novel, Christmas at Lobster Bay so I was very excited to jump into this one. The main protagonist of this story is Jennie, a passionate florist who has just been offered an apprenticeship of aContinue reading “Book Review – Summer at Primrose Tower by Annie Robertson”
Book Review – The Colour Storm by Damian Dibben
I first heard of this book from a wonderful friend of mine, whom I met on Bookstagram but can now say is a true friend after meeting her in real life.
