August 2024 Book Blogger Round Up


August 2024 Book Blogger Posts Round Up

A collection of blog posts by book bloggers


Disclosure: The FTC Disclosure Provision is a law that requires influencers to disclose when they are being paid to promote a product or service. So please know that if I'm not making money through affiliate links/sponsored content on the post you're currently reading, it's an oversight on my part and will be corrected soon. Read the full disclosure about all the legal stuff here.

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.


August 2024 Book Blogger Round Up

@Mehsi_Hime reviewed Teddy vs. the Slimy Evil by Braden Hallett. "The book is just all around so much fun that I read this one in one go. I just couldn’t stop reading until I finished it. The author really has a fabulous writing style." Read the full post here.

@caru25 was part of the book tour and reviewed No Funeral for Nazia By Taha Kehar. "Overall, a good read and recommended if you’re looking out for a quick & short read with less chapters." Read the full post here.

@amloughrey reviewed Bloodtide and Bloodsong by Melvin Burgess. "I was totally consumed by this incredible Terminator meets Lord of the Rings fantasy.

@DanSamEnd reviewed Alter Ego by Helen Heckety. "An incredible debut exploring inclusivity and self-acceptance that had me feeling all the emotions!" Read the full post here.

About the book

Book synopsis for The Grass Widow by Vanessa Edwards

Book cover The Grass Widow by Vanessa Edwards
Ditched by her married lover Hugh on the day she was made redundant, Leonie plans to make life difficult for Hugh while she searches for a new job. She inveigles her way into his house as a cleaner, intending to plant fake clues to his new liaison for his wife Amanda to find. But instead she discovers real clues to Amanda’s secrets.

Meanwhile, fellow cleaners Brenda and Tina also have hidden agendas as they work: Brenda is counting on a spot of blackmail and Tina is looking for financial information to sell to her dodgy brother-in-law.

At the centre of this web is Amanda’s gardener Simon: handsome, ruthless and plausible, with a shady past and lofty ambitions.

A death in an apparent accident arouses Leonie’s suspicions. Can she put aside her animosity towards Amanda and use her impressive – if sometimes unorthodox – investigative skills to find the truth before someone else dies?

Book synopsis for A Rose Among Thorns by Ash Fitzsimmons

Book Cover A Rose Among Thorns by Ash Fitzsimmons

Rose Thorn should never be left unsupervised around plants. Potted things tend to die around her as if on principle. But when her great-aunt calls and asks Rose to watch her garden nursery for a few days, Rose can hardly say no. After all, Aunt Lily is the closest thing Rose has to a grandmother — and the only family she has left — so Rose doesn’t mind driving out to her tiny mountain town to look after the place.


Aunt Lily never mentioned anything about an inspection, however.


Rose is taken aback when an agent from an organization she’s never heard of arrives and panics to find Aunt Lily missing. As it turns out, Aunt Lily hasn’t been entirely straight with Rose. She’s not visiting a sick friend — she’s in danger and on the run. She keeps a hidden greenhouse on the property in which she grows highly regulated magical plants. And she’s an elf…as was Rose’s grandfather.


Though stunned to witness magic at work and shocked that no one ever divulged the family secret, Rose refuses to abandon the nursery until her great-aunt is safely home. But as she and the agent, now awkward housemates, try to keep up their cover story and find the missing grower, they realize that whatever led to Aunt Lily’s disappearance might not be the only magical crime in progress.


And while Rose has no green thumb, another talent of hers may be budding…
