Overview of Books Read This Week

I've read a few books this week and I thought I'd do a collective post. The first book was Where The Crawdads Sing by Delia Owens, then Loveish by Sakshi Narula and then The Saddest Girl in The World by Cathy Glass.

Where The Crawdads Sing

Where The Crawdads Sing is May's book for a Book Club I've been part of for a few months, and one which I promised I wouldn't do a full review. However, it is a book that absolutely deserves a mention. It is in my top 5 books i've ever read, and I genuinely cried the whole way through. The whole storyline had me gripped. I won't say any more, but please read it!

Loveish by Sakshi Narula

I'm not really into poetry, but this wasn't bad. There were a few poems I really didn't "get", but there were also some that really resonated with me. I think I would prefer the "old school" poetry, but it was interesting to read something completely different. I would pop a warning on that some of the language and content are for adults only. 

The Saddest Girl in the World

Cathy Glass is one of my all time favourite authors. I love reading about her foster children, and how they improve, but I also like visiting her website, where she gives updates about the children in her books about where they are now. I'm pretty sure I had read this book previously, as I'm sure I've read them all, but as usual I loved this book. Her dedication and patience gives me a lovely feeling, and I don't think I could do it. All in all a definite must read.

Please let me know what you think of these books if you've read them, and also. if you like the format of this post!

Stay safe everyone, 

Steph 💚

DNF: Elske by Cynthia Voigt

This book held so much promise... But alas, I got half way through and just couldn't get any further. Nothing happened. The start was so...
