She’s decided that finding Mr Right is a myth, and that finding Mr Right-enough-to-have-children-with is the next best option. So when she meets easy-going Collin Read on a platonic co-parenting website, it finally feels like she has found her version of happily ever after.

What I Read in July!
Throughout July I have read a total of 11 books! I had a lot of luck this month with the amazing books I read and wanting to pick a new book up immediately after I finished one. So, I am back with another what I've read this month post. Here is a bunch of mini reviews for the books I read in July!
Something Certain, Maybe – Sara Barnard
Something Certain, Maybe is a companion novel to two of Sara Barnard’s other novels, Beautiful Broken Things and Fierce Fragile Hearts. The trio of Suzanne, Caddy and Rosie are back and in Something Certain, Maybe we follow Rosie’s story.
Book Lovers – Emily Henry
Book Lovers by Emily Henry is the perfect book to read this summer. It is full of humour, romantic moments and even some moments that will make you feel emotional. I’ve adored all of Emily Henry’s books but this one is easily my favourite of hers for so many reasons.
Currently I’m…
Hello! Hope you are well. I am back with another 'Currently I'm...' post. For those who don't know, I started doing these posts because of how intrigued I am to find out other people's currents. I love knowing what other people are currently reading, watching and listening to. Here is this month's 'Currently I'm...'
Something Wilder – Christina Lauren
Christina Lauren is a writing duo that I always feelI can trust to provide me with a good read. That is why I was beyond excited to read Something Wilder whilst I was on holiday. I knew it was something a little different for the pair but I didn’t realise to what extent. Let me tell you, this book blew my mind! It is unconventional and unique and it is truly exciting to devour.
This Place is Still Beautiful – XiXi Tian
Despite having had near-identical upbringings, sisters Annalie and Margaret agree on only one thing: that they have nothing in common. Nineteen-year-old Margaret is driven, ambitious, and keenly aware of social justice issues. She couldn't wait to leave their oppressive small-town home and take flight in New York. Meanwhile sweet, popular, seventeen-year-old Annalie couldn't think of anything worse - she loves their town, and feels safe coasting along in its confines. That is, until she arrives home one day to find a gut-punching racial slur painted on their garage door.
Ellie Pillai is Brown – Christine Pillainayagam
My name is Ellie. Ellie Pillai . . . And I suppose I am a little bit weird, but then, aren't we all, just a little bit? Most days, Ellie Pillai is somewhere between invisible, and not very cool - and usually she's okay with that. But suddenly, Ellie feels different. Maybe it's the new boy at school who makes her brain explode into rainbows every time she sees him (and also happens to be going out with her best friend), or maybe it's her new drama teacher, the one who seems to have noticed she exists.
What’s On My Netgalley TBR?
I've managed, thanks to my holiday, to get my Netgalley TBR under some form of control. That does not mean there are still a lot of books on there though. Writing this sort of post each month helps me to see what is on my TBR and when I need to read them. So, I wanted to share some of the books that are currently on my Netgalley TBR! Here are some of the books that are currently on my Netgalley shelf / TBR!
Why is Nobody Laughing? – Yasmin Rahman
Will the real Ibrahim Malik please stand up? Ibrahim and Dexter have been best friends forever. While Dexter is always cool and confident, Ibrahim...well, Ibrahim's dealing with a lot. Hiding his passion for comedy from his family, dealing with the pressure of being the oldest child in an immigrant family, and now he's started having episodes he soon realises are panic attacks.
