It’s almost Christmas people!!

which means I have a lot to read …
I mean …
Let’s just get this over with.
The links will take you to their GoodReads page for each book. It the book doesn’t have a GoodReads page, the link will take you to their Amazon page. They are not affiliated links.
Need to finish ASAP!
Small Island by Andrea Levy – this is Octobers book club pick for Black History Month in the office I work in. It’s a novel centred around the Windrush generation and the post-war environment in the UK. It’s very topical here in the UK atm so I’m very excited to read it. I helped organise this book club and host it so I have to read it. Our book club meeting is currently set to 5th December. I’m currently 150 pages in.
For ReadHarder Final Sprint!
