Summer is the perfect time to catch up on a good book, work your way down your ever-growing TBR, and spend some quality quiet time with yourself.

When we're kids, it seems that reading time comes naturally to us, whether at home or school.

Where do I start? It is hard for me to put into words what this book made me feel. Previous to picking up the book I had heard about it from family and friends as well as on social media; I needed to know what all this fuss was about. For the first few chapters I have to admit it I wasn’t immediately compelled, however I was mistaken. Once you dip your feet into the book all you want to do is keeping swimming.

That’s right, ladies. We’ve got together to create our very own ULTIMATE C Word reading list - this can be novels, non-fiction, poems, short stories, haiku’s.
