📚 RAINBOW STACK 📚

Today’s #rainbowstack is inspired by @wordsandkissesclub #WAKSpringChallenge and the prompt “Bright”.

It also immediately reminded me of a quote I love: “You are all the colors in one, at full brightness” from All the Bright Places by @jenniferniven It paints such a vivid image!

These books in particular were chosen for a very specific reason, and that’s mainly so I can gush about all these authors and tell you to go read their books if you haven’t yet 😛

Sweethand by @trinielf is a new release and also a debut 🥳 I just started reading it last night and I am already hooked!

@rosiedanan and her The Roommate were at the top of my favourites list last year and cannot wait to read The Intimacy Experiment as soon as it comes out next week! 👩‍🏫

Olivia Dade and Spoiler Alert… Oh man, what a treat that book was! And the best part is that there is more coming so keep your eye out for All the Feels on October 26 🎬

Fan of renaissance faires? You cannot miss @jendelucawrites and her charming Well Met series! Next book comes out October 19! 🎪

@laurajaneauthor almost drove me crazy with The Love Square - the anticipation was real - but I will forgive her anything because I just adore her writing! And there’s more to come soon with the Lucky Escape out on June 15! 👙

@quicunquevult … Every time I try to talk about how much I love Boyfriend Material, all that comes out is pretty much unintelligible squeals. It’s a problem really because that book it’s SO GOOD it deserves poems written about it! And while I wait for Husband Material to come out, I will proceed to squal some more over Alexis Hall’s writing just on May with Rosaline Palmer Takes the Cake - out on the 18th 🍰

📚 DID YOU KNOW…? 📚

Today’s #WAKSpringChallenge is brought to you by the prompt “Flowers”. If you want to join in on the fun, check out @wordsandkissesclub for more details.

Now, let me introduce you to one of my favourite flowers: wisteria… Which technically is actually a flowering plant native to Japan, China and Korea.

Some of you may be aware that wisteria has recently become very popular due to a very small, very niche, very unknown TV show called @bridgertonnetflix , based on the bestselling series of books by @juliaquinnauthor… But did you know that wisteria was not actually introduced to Britain until 1816, three full years after the first season of Bridgerton takes place?

So that being said, I present to you The Wisteria Society of Lady Scoundrels by @india.holton This book is coming out in June and it’s one of my most anticipated reads of the year. Make sure to check it out! I can also confirm that wisteria was very much present in Britain at the time this story takes place 😉

📚 BOOK STACK 📚

What do you say to a 2 for 1 book stack?

Now, let me explain. As soon as I saw @wordsandkissesclub #WAKSpringChallenge I knew I wanted to join in and have some fun. Today’s prompt is “Sunshine” ☀️🌞☀️🌞 and I just knew playing around with some colourful books would be a great way to cheer me up on this very cloudy, very wet Scottish afternoon!

However, March is also Endometriosis Awareness Month in the UK and I have just been made aware that in the book community #InMarchWeStackYellowforEndo to help spread the word.

Endometriosis is a long-term condition where tissue similar to the lining of the uterus grows elsewhere in your body.

Symptoms of endometriosis include pelvic pain (lower tummy and back), severe period pain, and pain during or after sex. Endometriosis may also cause infertility.
