Welcome back for another Book Bloggers Round Up!
I introduced this feature here on the blog in May 2021 to showcase blog posts by other book bloggers and as it continues to be a popular series I've decided to continue again this year too.
Each month I'll include a wide variety of content so there's something for everyone. You'll find book reviews, interviews, discussion pieces and more...
So if you're looking for new bookish content to read and/or want to discover some new book bloggers to follow, look no further!
Why I do this feature:
Scanning through various social media feeds to find suitable content can take up valuable time and so I figured I'd make it easier and put together a collection here on the blog.
It's also a way for me to highlight some of the other great book bloggers out there and help promote books and reading at the same time.
How it works:
Each month I do a post via my Twitter, where I offer the opportunity for book bloggers to submit posts published during that month for inclusion in this round up. I do this every month.
Want to be included in future round ups? Follow my Twitter profile and keep an eye out for the submission tweet.
@KarenLNHollis reviewed The Boot Camp Murder by Matthew Ross. "The book was so easy to get into. I read the first 22% all in one go without stopping and the whole thing in two days. It’s a real page-turner. Matthew Ross is a very gifted writer. I absolutely loved the clever sense of humour, witty observations and beautiful use of language." Read the full post here.
@_forbookssake joined the book tour for Adiel and the Führer by Elyse Hoffman and shared her review. "Adiel and the Führer is the 4th book in the Project 613 series, but can be read as a standalone. Having already read and loved the other 3 books in the series (Fracture, The Vengeance of Samuel Val, and Black Fox One) I had extremely high expectations for this book, and I certainly wasn’t let down." Read the full post here.
@BooksCozy reviewed Linghun by Ai Jiang. "I haven’t read too many gothic books in my life, but I know this one will hold a special place in my heart. Beautiful and rich in writing, characters, and storytelling, I will never forget this book. Truly a gem." Read the full post here.
@WorldsUnlikeOO reviewed House of Flame and Shadow by Sarah J. Maas. "This was such a fun ride! House of Flame and Shadow was the conclusion this series needed, and just finishing this book left me with such an incredible feeling of satisfaction. I cannot recommend this book enough – this book and the series as a whole." Read the full post here.
@leftontheshelf1 shared her Through the Letterbox feature where she posts about books she's been gifted or borrowed, purchased or has something new on her kindle. Read the full post here.
@Art_of_Reading reviewed House of Flame and Shadow by Sarah J. Maas. "Sarah J. Maas’s House of Flame and Shadow, the third book in the enthralling Crescent City series, is a triumph of fantasy literature deserving of its five-star rating. Maas once again demonstrates her mastery of storytelling, building a complicated tapestry of magic, intrigue, and emotion that had my attention from beginning to end." Read the full post here.
@mazsbookscape took part in the book tour for The Escape by Ruth Kelly with a review. "Creepy, and unnerving, this book has it all. And with the flashbacks, it makes it all the more difficult to put down! With a twist that I didn’t see coming, this will be the perfect read for someone who enjoys a thriller that is quick-paced and exciting." Read the full post here.
@shonaholmes23 reviewed The Murder After The Night Before by Katy Brent for her Bookstagram. "This book has it all, murder, scandal, mystery, intrigue and even internet trolls (which again shines a light on how impactful social media is on our lives) and is a fast-paced read with comical interludes perfectly placed." Read the full post here.

Book synopsis for Birth of the Storm by Valerie Storm
A bolt of lightning. And a dream of vengeance. For wolf-demon Kari, these define her every waking moment. Her parents are dead, slaughtered by human hands, forcing their only daughter to masquerade among their killers to save her own skin. Now she dwells among them, hiding her lightning-based abilities and plotting a terrible revenge, believing her schemes are all she's good for now. But when she discovers unexpected solace among a group of humans who look past her monstrous nature, Kari finds herself questioning everything. Her mission. Her dreams. Even the hatred festering in her heart. Is it possible for a creature like Kari to find happiness in a world that despises her? Or will the specters of her past force her down the path of vengeance in the end?

Book synopsis for Secrets of Peace by TA Hernandez
Open your eyes. See the truth. Make a choice.
Nearly 30 years ago, the PEACE Project rose from the ruins of a global war to take power over a new America. Providing stability in exchange for absolute authority, the Project controls every aspect of citizens' lives through each of its five units:
Protect
Enforce
Advance
Control
Eliminate
Raised in the Project since infancy, eighteen-year-old Zira has been trained as an assassin under the stern guidance of unit E-2's Chairman Ryku. After she makes a careless mistake on an assignment, the chairman partners her with Jared, the best operative in her unit. Their partnership transforms into friendship as they work together and learn to rely on each other. But when misinformation causes a solo mission to backfire, Zira's deepest loyalties and strongest relationships are tested in a place where even a hint of doubt can be perceived as treason.
The life she knows is falling apart, and nothing will ever look the same again.
Where to find Secrets of Peace by TA Hernandez online:
