About Me

About Me

Book Reviewer and Entrepreneur

Welcome to my blog. It's great to have you here! I aim to review almost every book I read, shared here and on Amazon UK and Goodreads. I hope to introduce new features during 2022 and join the Bookstagram community on Instagram properly, so come and follow me there too! I read mainly Mysteries and Thrillers, with over half of my reads being Advanced Reader Copies (ARCs) directly from the publisher/author. I also enjoy some contemporary fiction, literary fiction and romance with a smattering of non-fiction.
