MY TOP 5 BOOKS FOR JULY

This month due to ill health I wasn’t able to read as many books as normal but I managed to keep up with most of my readers news. I cannot believe it’s time for the Christmas releases already……. Can you believe it’s only 140ish days until Christmas Day !!!!

This month my favourite book has to be The Island of Hopes and Dreams by Kate Frost.

Release date 16th June 2025

This month I read a varied selection of genres and the other 4 stories I would recommend are.

Release Date 13th August 2025

Last stop on the Winter Wonderland Express really gets you in the Christmassy mood – think Christmas shopping with loved ones or your best friends with a hint of mischief.

Release Date 19th June 2025

The Forever Cottage is my first publication by Jill Steeples and it won’t be my last, I absolutely loved this story and have recommended it to many people all ready. It’s a story about starting again and having second chances at making your own happiness.

Release Date 2nd July 2025

Any book cover with a pet on is an instant winner for me, I adore reading stories which include a family pet in them. With the story set in Cornwall was another BIG PLUS for me ( you will begin to notice that some of my reviews are drawn to books based in Cornwall or nearby at the moment)

Release Date 3rd July 2025

If Love Had A Manual is the second instalment to the Skeptically in Love series, book 3 is due out later this year and I can’t wait to read it. This story is full on unexpected wit and surprise romance between Employer and Employee – a forbidden type if you ask me…..nothing good can surely come from this ?
