I'm a book blogger and all round lover of all things bookish.
Just one person trying to read all the books.

@books2dooruk very kindly asked me if I would like

@books2dooruk very kindly asked me if I would like to collaborate with them and I got to choose some books from their website.
👦📚
I chose some books that I thought my 6 year old son would like: an @usborne_books children's encyclopaedia, an Incredibles annual (he's a big fan) and a set of the five books in @_tommclaughlin's Accidental Series.
📚👦
Reviews coming soon. Thanks Books2Door!

I ordered #Strangers by @cltaylorauthor from Hive

I ordered #Strangers by @cltaylorauthor from Hive and it's arrived today. It's not published until 2nd April! And they donate a % of the order value to an independent bookshop of your choice. Win/win!!
📚
I love this author's books. I can't wait to read this for my #blogtour spot on 17th April.

Number 6 of @tandemcollectiveuk's #tandemtasks is

Number 6 of @tandemcollectiveuk's #tandemtasks is to post a photo of the beautiful book I own. I'm not sure if this is the most beautiful but it's the one that sprung to mind.
🎤
This is Daisy Jones and the Six by @tjenkinsreid and not only is it signed, it has gorgeous black spredges and perhaps best of all, those fabulous endpapers.
🎤
Unfortunately I haven't read it yet but I can't wait to do so.

I'm so so excited to be taking part in a mass cove

I'm so so excited to be taking part in a mass cover share today for @wendyholdenauthor's new novel, THE GOVERNESS! This March marks 5 months until publication of the novel on 20th August and nearly 90 years since Marion 'Crawfie' Crawford first became Governess to the young princesses, Margaret and Elizabeth.
👑
She consequently joined the inner circle of the world's most famous family and as a progressive young working-class woman in a conservative, ancient institution, she brought radical change to the family -- until a perceived betrayal forced her out... 👑
As a lifelong royalist this one is going straight on my #TBR! You can pre-order now (bit.ly/TheGovernessHB) and @welbeckpublish are kindly sending me a proof so I will share my thoughts with you asap!
👑
Thanks to @tandemcollectiveuk for the opportunity #TheGovernessBook 👑
Wendy Holden note:

She came from nothing. And raised a queen. At the end of March 1933, eighty-seven years ago almost to the day, a young Scottish teacher travelled from Scotland to London. Marion Crawford had landed the job of a lifetime, as governess to little Princess Elizabeth (now The Queen). ‘Crawfie’ remained for 17 years, living on intimate terms with the royals through abdication, coronation and total war. My new novel The Governess, published 20 August by Welbeck, brings to life her amazing, little-known story and shines a fascinating new light on the childhood of the Queen. And here is the beautiful cover!
👑
I'll pop the synopsis in the comments. Are you as excited for this one as I am?

Number 5 in @tandemcollectiveuk's #tandemtasks is

Number 5 in @tandemcollectiveuk's #tandemtasks is to post a favourite book series. I knew I was unlikely to be able to locate all the books in any one series right now so I'm sharing one book from each of the three series I love.
📚
I'm not that good at keeping up with series and I must admit I haven't read every single book in each of these series yet but I love all three.

It's day 4 in @tandemcollectiveuk's #tandemtasks and a challenge today is to post a TBR pile. 📚

Number 3 on @tandemcollectiveuk's #tandemtasks is to post some Sunny Reads (book covers). Here are six bright covers to cheer the senses. I've read and enjoyed Oliver Clock ( top right) but the others are still on my TBR pile.
☀️
This also ties in nicely with the #sixbookcolourchallenge too which was started by @amyandbooks.

Number 1 on the #tandemtasks is a #shelfie. This is my review/proofs bookcase and is actually the only bookcase I have. I had plans for some amazing bookcases years ago and then had our son and we've still not worked out how to configure the house (he's 6 😂). So for now I just have this and toppling piles of books all over. Still, this bookcase contains some pretty amazing books 😍
