Wow, another month has flown by! Is anyone else starting to feel that the festive season isn't so far away. I've just got a feeling that it will be here before we know it.
I did, in fact, read my first Christmas book this month and I loved it (details below.) There are many more books of this ilk that I plan to read over the coming weeks.
I have read some fantastic books this month and I have enjoyed sharing my thoughts with you on most of them. What have you been reading? I would love to hear.
Books I Have Read
Henry V: The Ashtonishing Rise of England's Greatest Warrior King by Dan Jones - This non-fiction title was excellent and very easy to read. You can find my review by clicking here.

The Witch of the Breton Wood by Jennifer Ivy Walker - Set in France during the Nazi occupation of World War Two, this exciting story has the power to transport the reader to the time and place. You can find my review by clicking here.
