Top Ten Tuesday is featured by That Artsy Reader Girl. It was born of a love of lists, a love of books, and a desire to bring bookish friends together.
Theme – Bookish Memories
It was 2009 when I got back into reading again, although I had read the Harry Potter series and Twilight in between….Hush, Hush by Becca Fitzpatrick and Fallen by Lauren Kate were book series I devoured. I then went on to read This Man and of course, 50 Shades. Then I was off! I devoured all romance books I could get my hands on, indie being my fave as they were more affordable for me on ebook at that time. I used to read around 260 books a year then! Kristen Ashley, Tillie Cole, Anne Malcom, Amo Jones, Cora Reilly and so many more made my lonely evenings so much more bearable along with loads of online book friends I made along the way and we still keep in touch after all these years!
I also started this WordPress blog in 2012 which I still love sharing all my faves on!
Then in 2017 A Court of Thorns and Roses and Throne of Glass happened to me! They bought my love out more for fantasy and then onto YA fantasy and sci-fi, I haven’t stopped reading them since! This genre introduced me to book boxes, to new authors and to Instragram where I’ve met some fab online friends!
I love to mix it up by reading adult romance/pnr, YA fantasy and sci-fi…..a bit of all of it!
Sorry this turned out into a bit of my life history but I wouldn’t change it for the world!

Thanks! I don’t know what I’d think if I read it now. Maybe I should do a reread!
