📖✍️ BOOK REVIEW 📖✍️

I finished this one about a week ago and in my mind I had written the review but in reality I hadn't 😆🙈

So here is, my review of Roll of Fate by Author JL Reed

4 🌟🌟🌟🌟

Such a cute story with a great look at how lockdown really had an impact on people and relationships. The book also dips into the main character escaping an abusive relationship and the fact that she needs time to come to terms with her new normal and finding herself.
There are some funny bits, zoom quiz with the family 😆 and also sad bits, the loss of loved ones but such a great book to enjoy and reflect on those difficult and strange times.

📖✍️ BOOK REVIEW 📖✍️

I know it's not Christmas but after this book caused some controversy on a book group I just couldn't help but read it 😆

In my opinion the spice in this book is barely worth mention but it does fit with the story and I totally approve of its inclusion. Such a cute cosy story, definitely worth a read 📚 especially as it's such an easy read 😊

So here is my 4🌟🌟🌟🌟 review

What a truly joyful book, I totally fell in love with the stunning location, I mean who doesn't want a castle full of books 😆 Such great writing and beautifully written characters, I feel like I know them all and I could feel their trials and troubles along the way. Life doesn't turn out how you plan is the big message I got from this book. I can't wait to check out more books by Jenny Colgan 😍

🎧📖✍️ AUDIOBOOK REVIEW 🎧📖✍️

Be Useful by Arnold Schwarzenegger

My review for this audio is short but as Arnold would say why waste time, so honestly you need to listen to this one 🤩

A great audiobook read by the man himself, life is what you make it. I highly recommend listening to this brilliant book 🤩

My current physical book 😆 because why wouldn't you read a Christmas book in the hottest May we have had in years 🥵

Now there is a story behind why I picked this book..... so on one of the book fb pages i'm on, someone said the spice in this book put them off this author, even though they have loved her other books 🫢 so of course I need to know more 😆

So here is to reading The Secret Christmas Library by Jenny Colgan Books 📚

5 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Beth does it again!!
I absolutely recommend jumping on board for a full on adventure with Zeke and Lexi, be ready to laugh and cry.
After a one night stand they both get more than they expected and end up on a journey of discovery.
This book will have you hooked 🤩

After I read this book, I looked at other people's reviews and I honestly thought, did they read the same book because honestly I loved this one 😍

It's been a quiet few days as I have been poorly but I am finally feeling better now 😊

I finished my latest audiobook earlier this week and it was just what I needed after the last audiobook 🙈

So here it is:

📖✍️ BOOK REVIEW 📖✍️

I listened to Dolly Parton behind the seams 🤩
What a brilliant autobiography and such a fantastic insight to Dolly and her fashion. It definitely made me laugh and it was so refreshing to here how she has always done her fashion and style her way even when people told her it wouldn't work. I finished the book with a great feeling of its ok to be yourself, this is Dolly's message throughout 🥰

I highly recommend a listen just to hear the lady herself 😘

📖✍️ BOOK REVIEW 📖✍️

I have just finished my latest digital book 🤩 and this is the first I have read by Kelsie Hoss, it did not disappoint. The story line was great some lush surprises 😮 and fab main characters.

My review is 4 🌟🌟🌟🌟 because I feel like I needed to know more about the bigger and more about the supporting characters but I throughly enjoyed the book and I look forward to reading the next in the series 🤩

Married to Secrets
By Kelsie Hoss

I really enjoyed this book, Bryce and Jada's story was true love at first sight story, well for him it was 😆. The marriage of convenience is well done and it has some great surprises which I loved, this is part of an interconnecting series with a slight cliffhanger, so feel free to read without feeling like you need to throw your kindle out the window because you can't wait for the next book. I'm keen to read the one and see where the bigger story line goes.

📖✍️ BOOK REVIEW 📖✍️

I enjoyed the last book I read by Jane Fallon but this one was not for me, which is such a shame as it had great promise and I really liked some of the characters but here is my review:

Worst idea ever by Jane Fallon

2🌟

I really struggled with this book, I enjoyed the different perspectives but the book felt like it was based around everyone being dishonest and friendship not meaning alot. It's definitely left me a bit flat, the ending for some characters was nice but for others it felt very unfinished.

I am thinking I might go for a different genre of book for my next audio 😉

As always check out my good reads profile to see what i am reading 😊

📖✍️ BOOK REVIEW 📖✍️

This paperback book is one of the most stunning in my collection, beautiful sprayed edges and lush colour pages 🥰 and not only is it gorgeous but it's also a stunning book that I finished reading today 🤩 and oh my I already need book 2.

Here is my 5🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 review of Beautiful Revenge By Brynne Asher

Not only is this book gorgeous to look at 🤩 it is also another exceptional book by Brynne Asher 🥰
The manor is somewhere I want to go and stay, it totally sounds amazing and I love that we are meeting new characters with just a glimpse of the characters we know and love 😍
Full of twists and turns with lots of heartfelt emotion I honestly couldn't get enough, once you start you definitely won't want to stop. I already can't wait to read book 2 in this series 😊

I have read all of Brynne's books, so they come highly recommended by me 🥰 they do all include Spice and open door romance 😘
