Summer is on its way, and could be better than relaxing in the sunshine with a good book?
Readers, I’ve got your back.
In this post I will take you through this summer’s hottest new releases, as well as the backlist titles that are worth picking up.
Legends & Lattes was the book that I never knew I needed, and my introduction to the world of cosy fantasy books.
The novel features Viv, an orc who decides to retire from mercenary work and open a coffee shop. It’s very wholesome and features some minor peril, romance, and lots of delicious baked goods.
Here are some of the other fantastic cosy fantasies that I enjoyed and recommend, plus a few from my TBR. You’re welcome!
First published in 2017, Adam Kay’s legendary memoir, This is Going to Hurt, captured hearts and tickled feathers of those around the nation. Now something of a national treasure, Kay’s first book has sold more than 1 million copies and spent many weeks at the top of the Sunday Times bestseller chart. His Christmas themed follow up, aptly titled T’was the Nightshift Before Christmas, went down similarly well, and his new memoir is set to be released in Autumn of 2022
For bibliophiles, there’s no better feeling than reading about the places we love the most - bookshops.
Whether it’s fiction or non-fiction, these bookshop books allow characters to find themselves, build empires, spark magic and learn about their history. They span not just genres, but transcend languages, and are set in countries and cultures around the globe.
Here are some of the best books about bookshops - including some that I’ve read, and others from my TBR. Enjoy!
