Book number two for December…been looking forward to this one 🐧
The postman has just arrived and given me this. My #jokabokaflod present. Now to put it somewhere safe til the 24th December 🎁🎄
I‘m not sure who it‘s from though as the sender details are smudged! Let me know so I can thank you x
so-soMy first festive read of December + on my TBR list for the #WinterGames2021.
A slow paced, warm hearted, cosy story that was full of Christmas cheer. Meredith isn‘t keen on the festive season which the reader will find out why but with the arrival of Finn in the seaside town, will she maintain that Meredith just doesn‘t ‘feel‘ Christmas. I loved the sound of the seaside village and featured a great range of characters.

2. A very Murder Christmas club, Christmas carols and a Cornish cream tea
My #jolabokaflod parcel has been sent today. It‘s on its way to a very special friend ❤️ hope it‘s gets there safely x
so-soFour residents in a peaceful retirement community meet up for a Thursday Murder Club to discuss unsolved mysteries. A local developer is found dead and the club find themselves in the middle of their first ‘live‘ case. Can they solve the murder before it‘s too late?
An enjoyable read and some quirky characters but it was too slow and too many character perspectives which where unnecessary and confusing.
Was looking forward to enjoying this so much
I‘ll take bring a ‘nerd‘ everyday ❤️📖

1. MG Leonard - MG author who captivates children with her story telling. My daughter and I love her book. We read her books together and have had some great chats.
2. No……but love reading about how you all use yours on Litsy
3. This series ignited my love of reading again. When I was pregnant, my hubby brought them for me. I even ended up naming my daughter after a character from the series.
Thank you for the tag @hannah-leeloo

pickThis has been on my TBR list for a while and I didn‘t know what to expect but I finished it in 3 days! Four famous siblings, the book is literally over the period of 24 hours. It‘s the day of the Riva‘s house party, renowned every year for its epic levels of partying. The party becomes out of control and so do that of the siblings lives. Explore lives, love and secrets that are explored in this family over the years.

1. I completed my goal of 60 books already for 2021 and up to book number 68. I‘ve also not brought one single book this year but read for my existing books at open and from my kindle! It‘s one of the hardest things I‘ve done! Roll on Jan 1st when I can hit the shops 🛍
2. I‘m trying to get hold of a copy of my buddy read for the Winter Games “In the holidaze”

#sundayfunday
1. I am. We‘re called Page Turners and meet twice a month.
2. The Midnight Library…such a thought provoking book with so much to discuss!
3. A friendly debate of course.
@ozma.of.oz
Finally starting this tonight. It‘s been on my kindle for far too long!
Such a thought provoking book unlike anything I‘ve read before. The author having experienced mental health issues was able to make me feel as I was with Nora and I wanted to know where her journey would take her. It contained so many great quotes which I‘ve made a note of and can‘t wait to discuss the book at my book club meeting on Wednesday. It took me a while to get into but I‘m sure glad I persevered .
#thoughtfulthursday
1. Reading this for my book club.
2. My Nan being able to walk after having had a knee replacement
3. When the phone rings/doorbell and I forget to put my book mark in and I lose my place 🥲
#wondrouswednesday
1. I‘ll have to be cheeky and choose two. Firstly, Hogwarts of course. Secondly, Pages & Co - the book shop where you can book wander into books (how amazing would that be!)
2. My families health and for Esme having a super first parents evening at school ❤️
Want a turn… @hannah-leeloo @NeedsMoreBooks @iread2much @Blerdgal_Fenix
Monday afternoon off work, cold outside but my sofa is cosy with a throw and Belle to keep me company 🐾❤️📖

pickA brilliant middle grade crime/mystery story. Enter a world of jewels and fashion with wonder around every corner at Sinclairs Department Store.
Join Sophie and her friends to solve mysteries, crack codes and capture the villains. See how friendship can save the day.
Perfect for Enid Blyton and Robin Stevens fans.
#weekendreads
1. The Mystery of the Clockwork Sparrow by Katherine Woodbine (middle grade crime/mystery)
2. Good Reads, Storygraph and a notebook

@rachelsbrittain
Happy Saturday everyone ❤️📖 ☕️ 🍪
pickMolly struggles with social skills but her Gran helps interpret them. When her Gran passes away, Molly must learn to navigate daily life by herself. Molly works as a maid at the Regency Grand Hotel but her orderly life is thrown into chaos when she discovers an infamous and wealthy guest.
A story containing a heartwarming journey narrated by Molly. It contains a lovely cast of characters and touches on themes of identity, love and family. 4⭐️
#wondrouswednesday @Eggs
1. Sweet Valley High everytime 📖
2. Lovely warm sun whilst sat out in my garden 🪴

I‘m tagging
#weekendreads
1. Tagged book. Just started it.
2. Blood Orange (Orange cover)
3. No costume for me but my daughter said when I‘m wearing my snoodie I look like the abominable snowman!
Happy Halloween everyone 👻🎃🧙♀️
pickI‘d heard so much about this series but was slightly disappointed. Chloe is chronically ill but makes a list of things to do to help her ‘Get a life‘. Introducing Red-the opposite of Chloe who becomes the man to help her tick off her list.
A cute, sweet story which was interesting to see how Red was attentive/tender to Chloe‘s condition. A predictable ending but an enjoyable journey along the way.
Yes please 🎃 🍭
#wondrouswednesday
1. Tagged. About half way through.
2. My mum always does a Halloween party for the grandchildren
3. Having 3 days off now to enjoy half term with my girls💕
#olayandshare
So many books could be put in this list but if I had to choose five: Harry Potter and The Philosophers Stone, Twilight, Murder Most Unladylike, Jemima Small vs. the universe and Tilly and the book wanderers. I‘d love to hear yours
@Mrs_B @Crazeedi @JaneyWaneyB
pickHannah and Si are on the same train but the next morning, Hannah wakes up in Paris and Si is on his way to Amsterdam. Hannah meets Leo and forces Hannah to question her life and herself.
This was a light hearted read and made me fall in love with Paris. Hannah was a lovable character and you only want her to be happy. The only thing I wanted was to find out more about Leo‘s character. A great debut book!
#two4tuesday
1. I love a good witch story 📚
2. I‘m on the 3rd book of The School for Hood and Evil‘ featuring witches, wizards, warlocks etc
pickA story following Connell and Marianne from teenage years to college life. A popular boy at school and the intensely private girl. These two connect on such a deep level. At school, they circle one another but Marianne veers into self destruction in later life. Can they save each other?
This is my first book by Sally Rooney who is able to scrutinise first love with great psychological prose and includes a complex, entanglement of characters.
