Last year in between sleep deprivation and other distractions I managed a measly number, but I find that once I’m back into reading there’s no stopping me, and I find it such an enjoyable and relaxing hobby.

I used to read loads, and have tons of books that we’ve enjoyed on shelves in our living room, and I felt it was time to add a few more.

Well, funny you should post this! Im in a book club ‘in real life’ and I’ve just published a post of all we read in 2018. Im also a member of bookish mamas on Facebook, which has online discussions which are really fun Reply
Ooh I might look for that on Facebook, it’s always nice to discuss what you’re reading and makes a solo activity more of a group one. I’m in a what’s app group with some of my mates and most of us read similar if not the same things so we can often discuss there if reading at the same time! Reply
