Hello!
Happy Wednesday!
My chosen quote for this week is by the American author, humorist, entrepreneur, publisher and lecturer Samuel Langhorne Clemens (1835-1910) who was known by his pen name Mark Twain.
“Keep away from people who try to belittle your ambitions. Small people always do that, but the really great make you feel that you, too, can become great.”
Mark Twain

I haven’t been able to put this down so far. I think it is the best in the series so far.

I started this over the weekend and so far so good. I have read it before in 2014 so I have forgotten quite a bit of it.

Hello!
I’ve been seeing this book tag a great deal on instagram but I thought it looked fun to do on my blog as well. If you like the post consider yourself tagged!
5 Books You Love
These are just a selection of my favourite reads and they are books that I will happily read again and again.
4 Autobuy Authors
Andy Weir – After reading The Martian I knew that I would buy any book that Weir published and so as soon as I hear a book is coming out I get it preordered.
Elly Griffiths – I adore the Dr Ruth Galloway series by Griffiths and it was through this series that I first came across Griffiths. This has meant for the last 3 years I have bought any new books and past books by Griffiths.
Philippa Gregory – I have loved reading books by Gregory since I was a teenager and she has been an autobuy author since then. It doesn’t mean I have read all of her books yet but I am working on it.
Alison Weir – I had read a few books by Weir but then I read her Six Tudor Queens series and I just fell in love with her writing and ever since I have been buying all her newly published books and working my way through her back catalogue.
3 Favourite Genres
Fantasy – My love of fantasy started when I read The Lord of the Rings as a teenager, ever since it has been one of my favourite genres that I always go back to.
Historical Fiction – I love historical fiction and I will read about any time period. My love first started with historical fiction set in the Tudor period but now I will happily read any time period.
Classical literature – The first books I ever really read were classics and this has always been my first love.
2 Places You Read
Bed – I always read before I go to sleep as it helps calm me.
Sofa – I always like to start my day with a bit of reading whilst drinking my first mug of tea of the day and this always happens on the sofa in the lounge. Sometimes I have a cat companion as well which is nice.
1 Book You Promise to Read Soon
This will be my next classic read for this year so I hope to start reading it soon.

I was rather naughty and started Rogue Protocol today but I couldn’t resist any longer. I am reading a bit of each book everyday and absolutely loving each one.
