One of the things I do enjoy about lockdown is the excuse to get stuck into some good books. I’ve recently been following Anika of Chapters of May on Instagram and she has given me some great ideas for reading inspiration.

If you’re a book worm like me, I thought I would share some of the books I’ve been enjoying recently. These are a mixture of new releases and old favourites.

Postcards by Annie Proulx

If you’re a fan of Steinbeck and the stories he told of migrant workers in the early 20th Century, you’ll find this book addictive. It’s told partially via postcards which are the only means of communication for the main characters. Completely absorbing, I couldn’t put it down. It’s still one of my favourite reads.
