With school school holidays round these parts recently, while I’d like to say I ripped through a couple of books in two short weeks, I, err, didn’t. However I have puttered through a handful of them since the start of the year and am always open to other suggestions, (even if it takes awhile to get to them.)
The last weeks I haven’t even bothered opening a book because The Handmaids Tale happened. Have you watched it? Did you blitz through it in a haze of tightened stomachs, and firmly held breath? Of course you did, that’s how everyone seems to have been watching it. If you haven’t I highly recommend hot footing to your local streaming service and get viewing. I. can. not. recommend. it. enough.
But for now, it’s back to the books.
On the ever-increasing wobbly tower of must have books by the bed side table…
The Summer Book- Tove Janssen
Lombardia
Speaking Out- Tara Moss
Truly Madly Guilty- Liane Moriarty
Humans of New York- Brandon Stanton
First we make the Beast Beautiful- Sarah Wilson
How not to Die- Michael Greger
Womankind Magazine
Earth Garden Magazine
…and of course a few a others
Any suggestions? What else should be added to that pile?
What are you reading at the moment?
I always look forward to your Sunday morning posts and I’m never let down. Goes so well with a quick cuppa. Keep em coming!

That looks like a very interesting pile Brydie. I have recently heard about the How not to Die audio book. Happy reading, you have reminded me to take more time to read actual books!

I need to make more actual time to Jane. It’s just kickstarting it all again, I find once the pages are flicking over it’s hard to stop. Go get those books 🙂

I’ve just requested Humans of New York from our library. I think I’ll then move onto Humans of New York Stories.
Eat Dirt by Dr Axe is a good book. So interesting.
