I would just like to take this opportunity to wish all my Family, Friends and Followers a Wonderful Christmas and a Happy New Year.
I know that not everyone enjoys this time of year due to their own personal reasons, and it can be difficult as we remember those who now reside in our memories and hearts. I hope you can find a special memory that reminds you of the treasured times you shared xx
As 2019 approaches, I like to look ahead and make tentative plans. I am already thinking of warmer days and getting out into my garden. Planning my vegetable planting, working out what worked and what needs sowing in a different place. More importantly is where my bench is going to go, yes this is important because that is where my coffee and book sits for regular breaks from digging and weeding 😉
Warmer days also mean a chance to get out and about in the wonderful Cornish countryside. My camera and yes a book or kindle always accompanies me along with a flask of coffee ☕
2019 holds so many new adventures within the pages of books I will be reading. It will also see a change for me as well and this is something I am gutted as well a excited about. I have come to realise that I just do not have enough time in a day. A very hard decision was made several weeks ago to stop accepting Blog Tour invitations. I am completing those that I have already agreed to, so my last tour post will be in April. The exciting part though is that I will hopefully make inroads into my TBR and read those books that I keep meaning to read. It’s a chance to start many series from the beginning instead of reading from book 12… 🙄 I know I am not alone in this. I often read blog posts that have something along the lines of “I have not read any previous books in this series, but it does work very well as a stand-alone” usually then followed by “I look forward to starting this series from the beginning”… I can see several of you nodding in agreement 😉😁 I will not stop blogging, and my posts will probably reduce, but the thought of reading the books and series that you all have raved and shouted about is something I am really looking forward to 😍
Anyways, that’s all for now I am off to make mince pies, sausage rolls, boil the ham, ice my cake and then settle down with a glass of red wine and a book in front of my roaring fire 😊
All the very best, Yvonne xx

I admit I can’t wait for 2019 and for the holiday season to be over… 🙂 I thought about giving up blog tours but I really enjoy them still, so I’ve reduced the numbers I’ll be accepting, and make room for my own books or the things I haven’t had time to read yet, but I’m not ready to say bye, haha!

I tried reducing but there are just so many good ones that I don’t seem to be able to say no to😀
