Another brilliant discussion post…..
An excellent discussion post here…..
These past few weeks I have read some rather unpleasant comments about book reviewers. Blogger ‘bashing’ seems popular just now.
https://prettymessreading.wordpress.com/…/dear-book-blogge…/
When someone – anyone – calls me or my fellow book bloggers dishonest – then steam starts to come out of my ears.
When I give a book 5 stars it is because I love it. I’ve recently given a book 2 stars because it wasn’t to my taste. Everyone’s taste is different. I get most of my books from NetGalley, Edelweiss or directly from publishers. They do not cost me anything, yet I still rate them ALL as according to my enjoyment of them. Why would anyone post anything this hurtful. I do not lie when reviewing books! I do try to be kind, as I know authors invest a lot of emotion, time, and hard work writing.

Hiya! Hope you’re having a good February so far.
Here’s a little look back at what I was reading this time last year…..


What were you reading this time last year?
What are you reading right now?
Feel free to join in with Flashback Friday and do share the link to your post with me in the comments, if you do 🙂
I am thrilled to be joining in with Daisy James’ cover reveal, for the upcoming release of her 4th book, There’s Something About Cornwall 🙂
Check out this stunner…..

Publisher: HQ DIgital; 1 edition (8th March 2017)
A knight in a shining camper van!
Life is far from picture perfect for food photographer Emilie Roberts. Not only has her ex-boyfriend cheated on her, he’s also stolen her dream assignment to beautiful Venice! Instead, Emilie is heading to the Cornish coast…
Emilie doesn’t think it can get any worse – until disaster strikes on the very first day! And there’s only one man to rescue this damsel in distress: extremely hunky surfing instructor Matt Ashby.
Racing from shoot to shoot in a bright orange vintage camper van, Matt isn’t the conventional knight in shining armour – but can he make all of Emilie’s fairy-tale dreams come true?
Now, you know you need this book in your life. I know I do!
Order your copy HERE
You will find all of Daisy’s books on her Amazon author page
