Step into my Flow by Michelle Heighway

Image
Thank you @zooloosBT For letting me be part of this tour and reviewing this book. Step into My Flow is a book of poetry and has a gorgeous front cover of flowers, leaves, and a beautiful cottage. It’s definitely somewhere where I would like to live. My favorite poems are “To the Shores,” "The Butterfly Effect,”"Cells , Cells, Imagination," and “Spell.” All of this poetry is gorgeous and flows really well. This is a lovely collection of poetry that you can keep coming back to time after time. All the poems felt like they were written from the heart and very meaningful and really resonated with me. There are four sections of the book: beginnings and reflections, nature and healing, loss and longing, and celebration, connection, and transformation. You will find that there will be some poems that will be your favorite more than others, but to be honest, I have mentioned my favorite above, but they are all just lovely and relatable, and you can feel the emotion in Michelle ...

High Spirits at the Village Inn by Sharon Booth

Image
Thank you @rarasources For letting me be part of this tour and reviewing this book. High Spirits at the Village Inn is book four in the series. I haven’t read any of the other books, and I have read High Spirits at the Village Inn as a standalone, and I’ve not gotten lost at all with what’s going on. But I would like to read the other three books. The book's length is 248 pages, which isn’t long at all; it took me a day to read this book. This is a romance fantasy genre, and the story is set in the Cotswolds, which is beautiful, so it was lovely to read this book, and I could visualize it in my head because I visited the Cotswolds before. The story is about Danny, who's been stuck in the village for 18 years and feels like his dreams have been shattered, and then there was Rory, who lives in London and is planning to whisk his wife Kirsty away to the Cotswolds for their wedding anniversary, but will their anniversary turn out like he’s planned? The story is easy to get into,...

Selecting The Wrong Love- E.Masson & Julie G Henry

Image
thank you @hyggebooktours For letting me be part of this tour and reviewing this book. Selecting the Wrong Love is a romance genre, and his book is the first in the series. I absolutely adore the front cover. It’s mesmerizing, beautiful, and eye-catching. The story is 170 pages long, and I read this in a few hours. I was absolutely engrossed in the story, and I could not put it down. The story is about Amber, and she’s at college and meets James, who becomes her best friend but maybe a bit more, and then there was Levi, who enters Amber's life. I can’t wait for book two because I want to see what happens with Amber, James, and Levi next. The story is fast-paced and is very well written and will keep you entertained from the beginning up to the end. I really like Amber as a character. She knows what she wants, but then her life changes, and I do feel sorry for her, but nobody knows what’s going to happen. I also liked James; I thought he was a good character. There was a part of me...

The Bird Watchers by AJ Lawson

Image
Thank you @hyggebooktours For letting me be part of this tour and reviewing this book. The BirdWatcher is a literary novel, and it’s about loneliness and searching for connection. The front cover is unique and grabs your attention from the minute you see it. I think the title really works with the story. I find The BirdWatchers a fascinating read, and it hooked me from start to finish after reading it. I felt it was a breathtaking and powerful read and something entirely different from what I normally read. I thoroughly enjoyed reading The Birdwatchers. It is written beautifully, and AJ Lawson's words are so true. The story is set in a Swiss city, and the story is about Jean, who sees a woman on his daily commute that captures his attention. It made me think about the times when I would sit and just watch people because it’s so fascinating to just watch other people. I wonder what their lives are about, so for me, this really resonated with me. Fantastic read, 5 stars. Blurb T...

The Honeymaker's Daughter by Anne Brooke

Image
Thank you @hyggebooktours For letting me be part of this tour and reviewing this book. The Honeymaker's Daughter is fantasy fiction, and I was lucky enough to receive a hard copy that is 354 pages long. The front cover has lovely honey-like colors on the face and hair and her eyes, which look gorgeous. The story is about an 18-year-old girl called Amber who lives with her father and meets a magician, and she doesn’t realize how her life is going to change. I found the story easy to get into from the start, and it is a lovely and beautiful read. The Honeymaker’s Daughter is a magical and exceedingly well-written book that you will not be able to put down. I really like the characters. It was lovely to see them develop through the story. I love the fact that Amber likes her gardening and cooking. I enjoyed reading about her doing those areas, which was inspiring me to go back into the garden. I felt like the story just flowed all the way through. A a powerful read that will cap...

Thank you @rararesources For letting me be part of this tour and reviewing this book. Sugar and spice at the pumpkin corner Café is a romance genre. I really like the front cover it’s adorable with bright colours and you just get a feel of the pumpkin café and the person from the front cover. This is the first book I’ve read by Laura Briggs and I really did enjoy it. The story is about Blair who is a professional pastry chef and she gets some unfortunate news about her Auntie who dies and leaves her the sugar and spice pastry café. I would rather not give too much away because it’s a really lovely book and I think if you love romances you will love this. The story is well written and grabs your attention from the start. I really like Blair and I really felt for her when she found out about her Auntie. I just wanted to give her a big hug. Furthermore, I really like Blair as a character and I felt like I’ve got to know her. Laura Briggs is writing style is straightforward to get into....

A way with the Fairies by Brona McVittie

Image
Thank you @hyggebooktours and @Palamedes For letting me be part of this tour and reviewing this book. Away with the Fairies is a folklore anthology. I received a hard copy of A Way with the Fairies, and it contains a selection of folk songs, fairy tales, and fables from all over the European countries. The illustrations are absolutely outstanding and beautiful. They are unique, and they fit really well with this folklore anthology book. I thoroughly enjoyed reading all of these poems and stories; they were stunning and spectacular. I also like that at each story/poem there’s a bit of an introduction about them. Furthermore, I feel this is a book that you can keep coming back to time and time again. All in a Way with the Fairies is a unique and magical read. I read this book in one day, and it just blew me away. I strongly recommend this book if you’re into folk stories and fairy tales. Five stars. Blurb: 1. The supernatural is woven into everyday life. The book invites readers to s...
