Speak to me of home

By Jeanine Cummins

4 stars

Loved this book! It's been sat on my bedside table for months, but I spent most of yesterday and this morning curled up fully immersed. She's just a great storyteller.
The Bean Trees

By Barbara Kingsolver

4 stars

Finally got round to reading this on the recommendation of my mum and loved it. A short, funny, sweet, sad and hopeful little story.
The Burnout

By Sophie Kinsella

3 stars

Another Summer book bag read. Light and fun - perfect for the beach.
Beautiful World, Where are you

By Sally Rooney

2 stars

Picked this up in an Op shop to read as I loved the TV adaptation of her book 'Normal People'. Didn't really enjoy it though - just felt too slow, laboured and a little boring and pretentious. I think I'm probably just the wrong generation to really 'get' this book as I know lots of people love her writing.
Maybe, Perhaps, Possibly

Perfect, light holiday read from my Summer book bag!
The Second Chance Convenience Store

By Kim Ho-Yeon

4 stars

A short and sweet story about simple acts of kindness and second chances. Great beach read!
There are Rivers in the Sky

By Elif Shafak

4 stars

I enjoyed this book as it was an engaging read with three intertwined stories centred around water. At times very moving, with some beautifully written passages. However, it felt a little superficial as it tried to cover so much and none of the characters were as fully developed as I had hoped.
