Hello everyone! It is a strange time at the moment with everything going on in the world so, I thought I would share some love for the books coming out in April that I think you need to pick up! These are books I've been lucky enough to read early and I just adored them! I will also add that I know some books are having some of their publication dates moved to later this year but, I will add that if I find out new dates! ![]() The Pieces of Ourselves by Maggie Harcourt 2/4/20 PRE-ORDER Flora "doesn't do people", not since the Incident that led to her leaving school midway through her GCSEs. The Incident that led to her being diagnosed with bipolar II. The Incident that left her in pieces. Until Hal arrives. He's researching a story about a missing World War I soldier, and he wants Flora's help. Flora used to love history before the Incident, but spending so much time with Hal is her worst nightmare. Yet as they begin to piece together the life of the missing soldier, a life of lost love, secrets and lies, Flora finds a piece of herself falling for Hal. I just adore Maggie's books and this was no difference! This was so raw and it kept me reading until early hours of the morning. It was beautifully written and the characters where so brilliant to follow. ![]() Rules for Being a Girl by Candace Bushnell & Katie Cotugno 16/4/20 PRE-ORDER Don’t be easy. Don’t give it up. Don’t be a prude. Don’t be cold. Don’t put him in the friendzone. Don’t act desperate. Don’t let things go too far. Don’t give him the wrong idea. Don’t blame him for trying. Don’t walk alone at night. But calm down! Don’t worry so much. Smile! Marin is a smart, driven, popular girl – she's headed for Brown when she graduates and has a brilliant career as a journalist ahead of her. Especially in the eyes of English teacher Mr Beckett. He spends a lot of time around Marin, and she thinks it's harmless . . . until he kisses her. No one believes Marin when she tells them what happened, so she does the only thing she can: she writes an article called 'Rules for Being a Girl' for the school paper to point out the misogyny and sexism that girls face every day. As things heat up at school and in her personal life, Marin must figure out how to take back the power and rewrite her own rules. Two amazing authors have came together and wrote a fantastic book that tackles misogyny and sexism and shows that you can speak up, stand out and break the rules. An amazing exploring of feminism. ![]() Incendiary by Zoraida Cordova 28/4/20 PRE-ORDER Renata was only a child when she was kidnapped by the crown. As a memory thief, the rarest and most feared of the magical Moria, she was used to carry out the King's Wrath, a siege that resulted in the deaths of thousands of her own people. Now Renata is one of the Whispers, a rebel spy working against the crown. When Dez, her commander - and the boy she's grown to love - is taken captive by the notorious Principe Dorado, Renata must return to the palace and complete his top-secret mission herself. Can she keep her cover, even as she burns for vengeance against the brutal, enigmatic prince? Her life and the fate of the Moria depend on it. But returning to the palace stirs memories long locked away. As Renata grows more deeply embedded in the royal court, she uncovers a secret that could change the fate of the entire kingdom - and end the war that has cost her everything. I LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS BOOK. It is dark, rich and full of life. Full of an amazing characters and a epic fantasy plot that will just grip you from beginning to end. ![]() Would Like to Meet by Rachel Winters 30/4/20 PRE-ORDER Long-suffering assistant Evie Summers will lose her job unless she can convince her film agency's biggest and most difficult client, Ezra Chester, to finish the script for a Hollywood romcom. The catch? He hasn't started writing it. Suffering from 'writer's block,' he will only put pen to paper if singleton Evie can prove to him that you can fall in love like they do in the movies. Forget internet dating, Evie can only meet a man the way that Sally met Harry, or Hugh Grant meets anyone. Cue her entering into one ridiculous romcom scenario after another. But can life ever be like the movies? Of course, real life is never that straightforward . . . This is funny, heart-warming and the perfect rom-com to curl up with at home! It was clever and original. I enjoyed every second off it!
