One Christmas Morning – Book Review

Overall Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “One day to change fate…” My first Christmas read of 2023 and I don’t even care if it’s too early! Saying that, the Christmas themes in this one aren’t as strong as others I’ve read, so I think I can just about get away with it! I wasn’t prepared for the emotional…

I Wish It Could Be Christmas Every Day – Book Review

Overall Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “Being together is all that matters…” This is definitely one of the most perfect festive books I’ve ever read. And, embarrassingly, my first Milly Johnson book, although I do have a handful of her books on my shelf just waiting to be read! As Milly is from my own home town, it…

Typecast – Book Review

Overall Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “What happens when your ex writes the script?” A very pleasant surprise! Typecast blew any expectations I had out the water, and it’s turned out to be a novel I’ll remember for a long time to come. An excellent take on its genre, such an addictive storyline and excellent characters you’ll love…

Dog Days – Book Review

Overall Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “It’s so much easier to swim with the tide instead of against it.” (TW: mental health, abuse, self harm, suicide.) If you read one book this year, make sure it’s this one. What an absolutely stunning story of three characters coping with love and loss in the most intricate of ways. This…

Love, Hope – Book Review

Overall Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “Letters arrive from the past, and by the time you receive one, anything could have happened.” This book has to be one of the most vibrant, uplifting and completely heartwarming books I’ve ever read! I’ve been looking forward to getting to this book after reading so many incredible reviews and praise for…

Inked Together – Book Review

Overall Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ “If you walk a mile in someone else’s shoes, who gets to tell the story of the journey?” Diane Michaels seems to write books at lightning speed, but don’t let that fool you! Her books are always getting rave reviews and are incredibly uplifting reads. Even though I’ve only read and reviewed…

Lost in Translation – Book Review

Overall rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “I’d teach you, Charlotte. And I promise, I wouldn’t let you fall.” She’s done it again!! And I think this one might just be my new favourite Audrey Davis book. Thoroughly entertaining and as hilarious as always, but this time, Audrey has taken a much different route to her previous stories. I…

A Christmas Rescue – Book Review

Overall Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “Is Australia to blame for your unhappiness or has stepping away from your old life allowed you to see that the life you had planned isn’t making you happy?” I guess it’s a little bit late to be reading a Christmas book right now, but I never want Christmas to end! If…

The Project – Book Review

Overall Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “That’s why they tell their stories. So that we remember them. They used to be our age and once had dreams and hopes just like we do.” Wow, what an absolute delight this book is! It’s one of the most beautiful, meaningful and touching books I’ve ever had the pleasure of reading,…

A Village Vacancy – Book Review

Overall Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ “What was the matter with her that she obviously picked the wrong men? Did she intentionally pick the ones who weren’t right because she didn’t want the responsibility of total commitment, or, deep down, did she feel she wasn’t worth a really good man’s love?” Such a lovely read that surprised me…
