Legends and Lattes by Travis Baldree | Blind Date Book Review
Hello Readers,
After giving it some thought, I’ve decided that rather than do a full monthly wrap here of all the books I’ve read, I’m going to write a full review of the Blind Date Books I’ll be reading throughout the year. That way I can share my thoughts thoroughly on one book rather than trying to cram in numerous reviews into one post for you.

June Bookish Wrap Up
Hello Readers,
I just don’t know where the months seem to be going because it feels like it wasn’t that long ago when I sat down to write my May Wrap Up!
Compared to last month, I didn’t read as much but I did pick up one of the chonkier {it’s a word} books on my TBR and read that this month, so that’s like reading two of three “normal” length books as it’s just over 600 pages. So without further ado, let me tell you about the books I’ve managed to read during June…

I Never Wanted a Pub… by Celia Bannister {Book Review}
Hello Readers,
The book I want to tell you about today is quite a special one as the author, Celia Bannister, is actually my great-aunt on my dad’s side of the family {my grandad’s sister}. My parents were sent an advanced copy of the book, which I was very kindly allowed to read first, since I am the avid reader in the family. So I thought it would be nice to write a dedicated review for it as I enjoyed the book so much…

February Bookish Wrap Up
Hello Readers,
I hope your February went as well as possible. I know there’s a lot going on in the world right now and I feel like a wrap up of the books I’ve read during the past month seems really insignificant compared to the everything. But as always, I want my little space on the Internet to be a safe, cosy place that you can come to for a little bit of a breather and hopefully find a new book to escape into when the world gets too much for you. I just really hope you’re all taking care and keeping safe.
As for this month regards to reading, I started four books, DNF’d one of them and finished the other three. So without further ado, let me tell you about them…

Hello friends,
Last week I reposted my review of the first two books in the This Mortal Coil series by Emily Suvada and today I’m sharing my review on the final book. Just a reminder that if you’re thinking of picking up this series, it does feature quite heavily a deadly virus that’s spreading throughout the world. Some of you might find that difficult reading while we’re living through a pandemic.
