Do you ever have an author whose books you hear so many amazing things about but haven’t picked any up yet. Kate Clayborn was that author for me and I’m so glad I finally picked up a book by her as she is certainly an author I’ll be read more from. The Other Side of Disappearing is a heart-warming, inspirational and enchanting story. It is about love, loss and new beginnings and it was a wonderful read I would highly recommend.
The Good, the Bad and the Aunties – Jesse Sutanto
This is the the third and final book in the Aunties series which is a series that I’ve found a lot of comfort in reading over the last couple of years. I knew I was going to be in for a wild ride when reading this book. That is exactly what I got and it was wonderful.
Currently I’m…
I cannot stick to reading one book, watching one series and listening to one thing. As usual, I've got more than one of each on the go. I’m always intrigued by what other people are reading, watching and listening to. I think that it is a very good way to learn more about other people and to get recommendations at the same time. So, I started doing the ‘Currently I’m…‘ posts to share my current reads, watches and what I’m listening to with other people who are just as curious as I am. Here is what I am currently reading, watching and listening to.

What’s On My Netgalley TBR?
Towards the end of last year I was doing amazing at keeping my Netgalley TBR down and keeping up with any new releases. I'm not doing as good at the moment but that's fine, I will get back to where I was soon. Currently, I have quite a few books on my Netgalley TBR but despite that I’ve still managed to keep my feedback ratio over 90% which I’m happy about.

We are four months into the year and I've currently read 34 books so far in 2024. Some have been good, some have been okay and others have been amazing.

The Flatshare by Beth O’Leary – Quote
A while back I read The Flatshare by Beth O'Leary and loved it. Even more recently I watch the TV series and loved that too. Both are adorable and are well worth your time! The book is full of some lovely quotes. So, I wanted to do what I normally do with a book that I enjoy, which is pick a quote from it and get designing.
The Prospects – K. T. Hoffman
The Prospects is a LGBTQ+ sports romance novel that is heart-warming, full of hope and brings a lot of joy. I don’t usually pick up sports romances but I’m so glad I picked this one up because I cannot recommend it enough.
Soulmates and Other Ways to Die – Melissa Welliver
After reading Melissa Welliver’s previous novel last year, and loving it, I’ve been excited to read another from her. So, I was so excited to pick this one up as soon as I could. Soulmates and Other Ways to Die is an action-packed, thrilling and unique YA dystopian novel that I thoroughly enjoyed!
