Once a month, if possible me and my 2 aunties try to go on a little road trip to visit bookshops around the UK. We go off what we see online that looks good, so far we haven’t traveled too far. We’ve been to 66 books, The Old Pier Bookshop and The OakTree Bookshop. This month, we headed off to Morecambe again. We have visited this bookshop before and decided to go back again.
We visited, The Old Pier Bookshop, which is a second hand family run bookshop facing the ocean.

June Book Summary: Health Struggles & Reading Highlights
I can’t believe another month has come to an end. The 6th month too! How has half a year gone by already? Crazy.
This is what I have read in June. I haven’t managed to do individual reviews on here for many of them, but they are all on my TikTok. I have not had the best month health-wise. I have been very drained, dealing with insomnia as well as mini strokes. I will try to get to them, though 🙃

Sinners Retreat Review: A Hilarious Serial Killer Romance
Sinners Retreat by Lauren Biel
I have read a few of Lauren Biel’s books; the first one I ever read was Captured, which is very dark! I still can’t look at mayo the same. Today, I have finished the first book in Lauren’s Slaycation series, Sinners Retreat.
Is it dark?
Well, they are serial killers; they are at a resort for a serial killer annual event where they get to play bowling using people’s heads, but other than that aspect, no, it’s not dark. It had me laughing out loud many times. It is a dark rom-com, and spoiler alert, I loved it!

Interview with Kinsley Kincaid: Insights from the Queen of Taboo Romance
So I recently slid into the DMs of one of my favourite authors asking if we could do a sort of interview, totally casual I would send her the questions and she could respond when she had time and a couple of days later I had her email with her answers and I am smiling like a loon.
So, who is the author? If you follow my social media, you will know my favourite author is Kinsley Kincaid, the Queen of taboo romance!
Let’s jump straight into these questions.

I saw a post on threads where the creator asked Indie Authors to leave their promotional graphics in the replies for them to share, and I thought this was a fabulous idea. I also wanted to do the same. As I type this, I am receiving a fair number of replies, and so I have decided (where possible) to make this a regular post. I will create a blog post promoting indie authors’ works. So get your pens ready to add these books to your TBR.
I have not read the books on the list, so I cannot comment on what I think of them. However, I am making them available to you so that you can read them if you choose.

Ballet Slippers and Bad Boys: Why Cassidy Can’t Resist Max’s Dangerous Charm
Our Thing by Nicci Harris
I think I mentioned this in a previous blog post, but last year I decided to participate in the ‘12 Months, 12 Friends, 12 Books‘ challenge, where 12 of my friends on BookTok gave me a book recommendation, and I would read one a month until the end of the year. I will link to a post about the challenge here.
Our thing was recommended to me by my friend Jodie, well technically she recommended the Kids of the District series, and I think this is book one, so it counts lol. Previous to Jodie recommending this, I hadn’t heard of the series. I had read 2 novellas by Nicci Harris, but not from this series.
