I'm really thrilled to be a part of this blog tour for the 20th anniversary reprint of Shari Low's very first book, What If ...?

BLOG TOUR REVIEW – Bridesmaids by Zara Stoneley
Anyone who's ever been involved in planning a wedding, whether it's their own, or a friend or family member's, knows that the final product (everything and everyone looking beautiful, smiles all around, hugs and kisses etc. etc.) certainly doesn't tell the full story! Not by a long shot! Bridesmaids is the story of Rachel's journey... Continue Reading →
BLOG TOUR REVIEW – Swallowtail Summer by Erica James
It's Day 2 of the Blog Tour for Swallowtail Summer, the new book by Erica James, and I must admit that when I saw she had a new book out, it did bring back memories of good times spent in book clubs over the years, as typically, hers are the type of books favoured by... Continue Reading →
I Owe You One by Sophie Kinsella
I've always been a Sophie Kinsella fan. You can always rely on her for a light, amusing read with a main character who gets herself into a bit of a mess, but who manages to come right in the end. I Owe You One doesn't really stray from that theme, but for some reason, I... Continue Reading →

I don't understand a thing when it comes to AI (Artificial Intelligence).

Book Review – Hey Ladies! By Michelle Markowitz and Caroline Moss
I can't recommend this book highly enough! If you've ever been part of a WhatsApp group (I.e. if you breathe!), email group, or anything similar with a group of friends, acquaintances or people who happen to just live in close proximity to you, then you'll totally relate to this book!
