The three novels I enjoyed reading in January.
My favourite reads from 2018
Exciting book releases for 2019!
I often get books through the post directly from publishers. This can often be well in advance of the book’s publication date. And I love receiving them.
The six in the video are those that have really grabbed my attention. Some of them I’ve read, and some I cannot wait to read. One made me laugh out loud (rare for a book to do that to me), one was my favourite read from 2018 and one (the one above) I just utterly adored.

Introducing the December Pick(s) for the A Bookish Baker Book Club
One of the great benefits of having a casual book club on Instagram is that you can make up the rules as you go along. So instead of having one book for the December book pick - you can have two.
Yes, it’s greedy. But it is Christmas in a few weeks.
To find out what the two book choices are for December then read the post here:

My September reading list
My summer holiday reading
The school holidays are nearly upon us and I cannot tell you how much I'm looking forward to our family holiday.
I'm so excited about it I've already compiled and bought the books I'll be packing away in my suitcase. I've gone for paperbacks, for obvious reasons, with three being fiction and one non-fiction.
