Nervous First Steps…

Hello readers,

I’m not 100% I know what I’m doing at the moment…

I’ve always wanted to review books because they hold a special place in my heart. I absolutely love reading; it transports me to different worlds and allows me to experience life through the eyes of diverse characters. Each time I finish a book, a wave of nostalgia washes over me, and I feel sad as I have to say goodbye to my favourite characters, ones I’ve grown to care for deeply. However, I’m hoping that writing reviews not only helps me articulate my thoughts and feelings about the stories but also allows me to hold on to them a little longer, preserving the essence of those fictional lives and sharing my passion with others who might feel the same way. Through this process, I aim to connect with fellow book lovers and create a community where we can all celebrate the magic of storytelling together.

Fingers crossed I don’t make a total a** of myself!! As I venture into this new experience, I’m filled with a mix of excitement and anxiety, hoping that I can navigate the challenges ahead without stumbling or embarrassing myself too much. It’s always this delicate balance between wanting to shine and fearing that I’ll trip over my own expectations. Here’s to staying hopeful and embracing the moment with confidence!

My first review will be on here in a few days, and I’m genuinely excited to share my thoughts with you all. I’m currently working on it in a Word document, which allows me to organise my ideas and ensure that everything flows logically. This way, I can make sure it all makes sense before posting! I believe that taking the time to refine my review will ultimately lead to a more engaging and informative experience for my readers. Stay tuned for my insights, as I can’t wait to hear your feedback once it’s live!

I think I’ll also write a little introduction about myself, so you know who is at the other side of the screen.

Bye for now! 😊
