5 Popular Books I Do Not Plan on Reading
There are so many books out there in the world and unfortunately I won't get round to reading them all. A number of those books are all that is talked about on the internet at the minute. Some of those popular books are not books I want to read, each for a few different reasons. I wanted to share a few of those books with you today. I don't want to be negative about any of these books, they just aren't books for me. Here is 5 popular books I do not plan on reading.
My Auto-Buy Authors!
There are so many authors whose books I absolutely adore. Some of those authors are auto-buy authors for me. This means that I will automatically buy anything that they release. I wanted to share with you a few of my auto-buy authors! Here they are!
February Book Haul!
It is time for another monthly book haul! I'm surprised again that this haul only consists of 9 books. This haul consists of pre-orders, presents for myself and a few books gifted from publishers. Here is my February book haul!
The Last Library – Freya Sampson
Library assistant June knows a lot about the regulars at Chalcot Library, yet they know very little about her. When her mum - the beloved local librarian - passed away eight years ago, June stepped into her shoes. But despite their shared love of books, shy June has never felt she can live up to the village's memory of her mum. Instead, she's retreated into herself and her memories, surviving on Chinese takeaways-for-one and rereading their favourite books at home. When the library is threatened with closure, a ragtag band of eccentric locals establish the Friends of Chalcot Library campaign. There's gentlemanly pensioner Stanley, who visits the library for the computers and the crosswords, cantankerous Mrs B, who is yet to find a book she approves of, and teenager Chantal, who just wants a quiet place to study away from home. But can they compel reclusive June to join their cause? If June wants to save the library, she finally has to make some changes to her life: opening up her heart to friendship, opportunities and maybe even more . . .
What’s On My Netgalley TBR?
I spend way too much of my time looking for new things to request on Netgalley, which always means my Netgalley TBR is never-ending.I love talking about the books that I'm anticipating because it makes me even more excited to read them. There have been so many amazing books on my Netgalley shelf over the years and it is a place that I’ve found so many new authors and books. Here are just a few things currently on my Netgalley shelf / TBR!
The Hawthorne Legacy – Jennifer Lynn Barnes
The Inheritance Games ended with a bombshell, and now heiress Avery Grambs has to pick up the pieces and find the man who might hold the answers to all of her questions - including why Tobias Hawthorne left his entire fortune to Avery, a virtual stranger, rather than to his own daughters or grandsons. As the mystery grows and the plot thickens, Grayson and Jameson, the enigmatic and magnetic Hawthorne grandsons, continue to pull Avery in different directions. And there are threats lurking around every corner, as adversaries emerge who will stop at nothing to see Avery out of the picture - by any means necessary.
Loveboat Reunion – Abigail Hing Wen
It’s a classic tale of girl-meets-boy, boy-meets-other-girl, heart-gets-broken, revenge-is-plotted, everything-blows-up. Spectacularly. At least they’re friends now. They’ve left the drama behind them back in Taipei—at their summer program, Loveboat—forever. Now fall is here, and it’s time to focus on what really matters. Sophie is determined to be the best student Dartmouth’s ever had. Forget finding the right guy to make her dreams come true—Sophie is going to make her future happen for herself. Xavier, on the other hand, just wants to stay under his overbearing father’s radar, collect his trust fund when he turns eighteen, and concentrate on what makes him happy, for the first time ever. But the world doesn’t seem to want Sophie and Xavier to succeed. Sophie’s college professor thinks her first major project is “too feminine.” Xavier’s father gives him an ultimatum: finish high school or be cut off from his inheritance.
The Ex Talk by Rachel Lynn Solomon – Quote
Recently, I read The Ex Talk by Rachel Lynn Solomon and thoroughly enjoyed it. I've read a few books by Rachel Lynn Solomon now and I'm sure she is an author I can trust to make me smile. So, I wanted to do what I normally do with a book that I enjoy, which is pick a quote from it and get designing. So, that is exactly what I did.
January Book Haul!
haul I kept thinking that I'd missed books but this haul is only 9 books! I feel that is quite subdued for me. This haul consists of pre-orders, presents for myself and a gift from publishers. Here is my January book haul!
