Who am I?

choose and book: United Kingdom; Hi, welcome to Choose and Book. It is hard to imagine a life without books. Like all booklovers, I have a huge pile of books waiting to be read and at the same time, I am looking for space to store away all the books I have read. Old and new, I will read them all as long as they interest me. I do not touch science-fiction and am especially partial to new writers and book series. I aim to make my blog fun, informative and brief. Do feel free to share your thoughts with me and stop by as much as you can - my virtual bookshop is always open! Thank you for visiting.

Review Ratings

***** Outstanding. Get me the full back catalogue now!

**** Quality stuff. Will be tracking down books by the same author and recommending to friends.

*** A generally solid, enjoyable read and I might read other books by the same author.

** Passable, but in no rush to read the author's other works.

* Struggled with this and a waste of my time.
