August is almost here and there are so many amazing new books coming out throughout the month. So, I wanted to share the ones I’m most excited about in this post. Here are the new book releases I’m excited for in August!
Books Recently Added to my Wish List
I've been in and out of a lot of book shops recently plus had a lot of new books arrives in the library I work at. That means I've added a lot of books to my wish list. I love using my wish list to keep an eye on books I want to purchase soon and to add books to it that catch my eye whilst out. Quite often I will buy myself a book off this list as a little treat to myself and it brings me a lot of joy. I thought I'd share some of the books I've recently added to my wish list. Here they are!
A Novel Love Story by Ashley Poston – Quote
I finished reading A Novel Love Story by Ashley Poston a couple of days ago and enjoyed it a lot. It is a book for book lovers and is full of lovely quotes. One in particular stood out to me because it is perfect for book lovers. 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. Here is a little image I designed for a quote from A Novel Love Story by Ashley Poston.
A Novel Love Story – Ashley Poston
Ashley Poston’s previous two romance novels have been some of my all-time favourite books. There were both the perfect combination of adorable romance, captivating characters and a magical realism twist. So, of course I was excited to read another romance by her as soon as I could. A Novel Love Story is a magical romance made for book people. I loved the characters, the setting was charming and I loved the romance. It may not have lived up to the other the author’s other two romance novels in my opinion but it was still exceptional.
Life’s a Beach Book Tag
Summer is here (even if the weather in the UK doesn't feel like it) so I thought I'd give a Summer themed book tag a go. I found the Life's a Beach tag on ZeZeewithBooks and thought it would be fun. Here is the Life's a Beach book tag.
This Summer Will Be Different – Carley Fortune
Carley Fortune and her books have been one of the summer constants in my life for the past couple of summers. I have loved reading her past two books whilst away on holiday. So, you can imagine my excitement when it was announced her latest book would be released just before my holiday. It was one of the first books I read whilst on my holiday this year and I adored it. It may just be my favourite book I’ve read by Carley Fortune. It is adorable, at times spicy, fun and perfect for the summer.
June Book Haul!
Happy July everyone! I've done it again and hauled more books that I thought I had throughout June. I added 17 books to my collection in June. This haul has some presents for myself, pre-orders and books kindly gifted to me by publishers. Here is my June book haul!
Mid-Year Book Freak Out – 2024
We are almost half-way through 2024 which I cannot quite believe. So, I wanted to give the mid-year book freak out tag a go. I've been doing this tag for a few years now and I always love looking back on the previous years answers. So, here is the mid-year book freak out for 2024.
What’s On My Netgalley TBR?
I've been restrained over the past month and haven't requested any books on Netgalley. I think being on holiday has stopped me from browsing the website regularly which isn't a bad thing. There are still a number of books on my Netgalley TBR but despite that I’ve still managed to keep my feedback ratio over 90% which I’m happy about. I started writing these posts to show what was on my Netgalley TBR and to hold myself accountable when it comes to reading them. So, here are some of the books on my Netgalley TBR / shelf at the moment!
