Just a quick one today to say it’s my birthday! Yes, I am turning thirty-mumble-mumble. For me, this is usually a chance to watch some musicals, eat good food and take some time off work, which also means reading! Later this month I’ll also be heading to the Sugar Pages Indie Book event in Cardiff, and I’m so looking forward to meeting new authors and picking up some books!
That said…it is my birthday, so I have a request. I really want to hear from you about the books you’ve been reading recently! Let me know your last great read, recent additions to your TBR you’re looking forward to, anything that’s particularly drawing your interest or occupying your thoughts right now. Drop your blog posts below too if you have a blog post up today or want to share any reviews!
While I have some time off work, too, I’ll be creating 2027’s Musicals Reading Challenge over on Storygraph. I have all the prompts lined up, so it’s just a matter of adding it to the site. I always get excited for the next year’s challenges – fresh prompts, fresh books, and fresh challenges to add to my list! I’ve really been enjoying the ones for this year, so bring on 2027!
I’ll also be paying a visit to Love Stories in Cardiff – a new favourite bookshop! Last time I was there, I picked up a couple of their Blind Date with a Book offerings, and was very pleased with what I got, so that’s going to be a little birthday treat for me.
I’d also love to hear about your own birthday treats, traditions, celebrations – let me know what you do to mark the day!
