My Month in Books: October 2025
I am honestly so sad that Spooky Season is over. It’s without a doubt my favourite time of year. However, I am definitely ready to cosy up with some Christmassy reads. I don’t know what happened this month, but I have ended up with so many new books. I went crazy!! Anyway, here’s my month in books.
