I picked up this book in my local Waterstones and was instantly captivated by the blurb and gorgeous cover design. I’m currently writing a contemporary middle grade which is going to be tackling some quite tough issues so reading this is going to help me greatly in my writing journey. Also, we need more inclusive middle grade especially with regards to diversity and mental health.

Alex Neptune Dragon Thief is one middle grade that you all need to pick up this summer! It was such an amazing, unique read packed full of adventure with a great message about saving our environment. It’s out on 4th August. Thank you to @usborne_books for sending me a proof copy.

Another #pridemonth book recommendation! The Secret Sunshine Project was just a gorgeous, heart warming read that I just couldn’t put down. I fell in love with each character (well bar one) and I instantly found myself hooked on the plot. Benjamin Dean is such an inspiration to me as an aspiring writer of contemporary middle grade and I can’t wait to read his next middle grade book! 🏳️‍🌈💖

Look at how gorgeous this cover is! Gay Club is the latest YA release by the awesome @simonjamesgreen and I cannot wait to read it! I’ve loved all of Simon’s books so far, and I know this one will be no different! #VoteBarney 🏳️‍🌈

Happy #PrideMonth! This month I am reading as many LGBTQ+ books as I can. I’m also going to try and create a display at work, as I have had a few children asking if I have any books with LGBTQ+ themes.

Oh my god - I’m so bad at this bookstagram thing aren’t I? It’s been weeks since I last posted and I can only apologise. Work has been super busy, I’ve been to a few amazing events and I just haven’t had the time to sit down and take photos. I am hoping to focus more on bookstagram from now on though, as I just don’t have time to keep my blog updated due to a busy life. I’m going to use this to share reviews, thoughts and book hauls!

I am primarily a MG and YA reader, but from time to time I will delve into something else. I have read all of @carriehopefletcher’s books so, it was only natural for me to pick up her latest release - With This Kiss. It sounds like it’s going to be such a gorgeous read and I’m excited to get stuck into it ✨

Happy Easter Sunday! The sun is shining, and I’m spending the day writing blog posts, reading and eating chocolate. I hope you all have a wonderful day whatever you are doing 😊🐣🍫

Happy Easter weekend! What are you all doing with the four day weekend? I’m seeing my nieces and nephew today, and Saturday and Sunday will just be time to eat chocolate, read and relax. Monday I think I’m going out with the family. 🍫🐣
