He is set on finding a more suitable partner for Julie which happens to be the V-E-T, as they navigate a rocky first meeting and eventually a friendship, Doug helps them both navigate this new venture.
I treated myself to some new wax melts. I ordered them through a friend. The box smelt gorgeous when I opened it up. Can‘t wait to chill up later and read with my wax melts burning. Scents are black cherry, juicy orange and daffodil with vanilla.
They forgot Litsy and books of course!!!!!!!! 😄
Wherever you are have a great day ❤️

1. My nan - my mum worked full time when I was growing up so I practically lived at my nan‘s house. She always had an apron on and would always be baking sweet treats. I loved those days.
2. My 2 girls and hubby - everything if I is for them. I can‘t rest at night until I know everyone is home safe
3. I loved The Weasleys from HP - down to earth, friendly and caring 💕
1. Growing up in the countryside was so carefree, I often wonder if I grew up the city, how would I have been different!
2. Forks…I loved reading about this place in the tagged book. The trees, the rain etc

Set in southern Appalachia, a heart wrenching story of a young boy born to a single mum in a trailer park. Told in Damon‘s words he lives through child labour, foster care, high school and crushing losses.
This book is full of anger, hate and compassion, yet tells the story of the need to be loved. It features drug use and how its effects can wreck lives of loved ones. It is a depressing read but there is beauty within it too.

I‘ve heard many things about this book, both good and bad, only one way to find out….
Leonie finds herself out of a job at the beginning of the book, her boyfriend has left her too. Whilst out walking her rescue puppy she stumbles across a beautiful cottage hidden in the woods. She is determined to find out about the history of the property. As she finds out more and uncovers secrets about the abandoned cottage, can she let love and joy back into her life?
A sweet, cosy read with a great plot and warm characters. 4🌟

Thought ‘d read a few books from my TBR list on my kindle. Only another 79 to go!
A beautiful, neurotic, London socialite called Magnolia and the bad boy , Baxter, who broke who heart. They hurt each other, she dates other people and he sleeps with girls to get back at her. Whatever happens, they crawl back to one another. This is not a romantic book! Their relationship is unbelievably toxic and should never be tolerated in real life. The book has words of love which were just words. An ok read but I won‘t continue the series.
I‘ve heard both good and bad about this book. Thought I‘d give it a go, another book from my TBR list.

Britain, 1941, the Ministry of Unladylike Activity is training children as spies. May, Nuala (the narrator) and Eric are the newest recruits. Living in a London Mews whilst training they come across an unlikely collection of neighbours and a dead body. Is this the missing spy everyone is talking about?
The wartime backdrop was really interesting and vivid descriptions of daily life during the Blitz brought the story to life. 3🌟
