A Reading List

When I was younger I was very much an avid reader. I could demolish a book in an afternoon, and never left the house with at least one in my bag. Sadly though many excuses I seem to have lost that more recently, always seeming to have so much to do with no time to read. However, I've decided that if I have time to be on twitter or watch Netflix, then I definitely have time to read! I'm always in awe of people that complete huge reading challenges, and I feel like that might just be a bit too much of a challenge just now, so I've set myself a mini one: I have a stack of books on my desk that I want to read. I don't have a deadline, but every time I find myself unnecessarily on social media, I need to switch it off and read a chapter instead! So, the books in my list...

I Let You Go by Clare Mackintosh
This was given to me as a gift and isn't the book I'd usually pick up off the shelf but I thought it would be a good place to start to expand my usual reading repertoire! I tend to go for more lighthearted reads so I'm interested to see how I find this one!

The Potion Diaries by Amy Alward
I'm really excited to start this one! Amy is super lovely and this one has been recommended to me by so many people. My favourite books when I was younger were the Princess Diaries series and I've heard there are similarities, so this one sounds like a great light read to unwind with in the evenings!

Eat. Nourish. Glow by Amelia Freer
I picked this up a while ago but haven't got very far into it. I desperately need to do something to kickstart my eating habits which have (again) got into a bit of a slump towards the unhealthy side. This one was recommended as a great way to change your view on food, so I'm hoping it will help!

Go Set A Watchman by Harper Lee
I feel like this one doesn't need an introduction. To Kill A Mockingbird is the reason I love reading, one of the first books I remember reading that had a real effect on me. I've actually started this one already and am about half way through, so will share my thoughts when I get to the end!


What are you reading at the moment? I'd love it if you could share some recommendations of what to add to my list!
