Hey Bookworms!
Summer is here and I cannot wait for summer reading! Last year I found some absolutely amazing summer reads and I have high hopes for this summer too. Over spring, I found some real gems and even went back to revisit some old favourites. I read a LOT this spring, and I've actually hit my years reading challenge already, which included 6 FIVE STAR books - probably the most I've ever given out so it's been a good reading season! Some of the books on this list are advance copies so they won't be out yet but you should definitely check them out when they are! So, here's everything that I read in Spring- let me know if you read any of these and if there's anything I should check out!
Happy Reading!

My Spring Highlights:
The Yearbook - Honestly I SCREAMED when I was selected to advance read this book. Everything Bourne puts out is total gold and this was no exception. She manages to flawlessly execute everything she does, keeping up the inclusivity and feminist themes throughout all of her work.
The Couple - This was the first Helly Acton book I've read and wow - the world building was honestly mind-blowing. I talked about it for days.
The Wardstone Chronicles - I loved these books when I was younger and re-reading them was so much fun! These may technically be for younger readers but they still hold up so strong! I'm definitely going to finish re-reading the rest of the series soon too!
Magma - It's been a while since I've read something quite like this. The whole thing read like poetry and the translation was flawless. This is one those stories that stays in the back of your mind whether you want it to or not, hauntingly beautiful.
Would I Lie To You? - What a debut novel. I can't wait to see what Aliya Ali-Afzal comes out with next.
Happy Reading!
