For as long as I am remember , I have loved to curl up and read. Even as a little girl, my Mam says I would go in a book shop , lie on my tummy and read a book. My grandma and great aunt Jean used to take us shopping on a Saturday- I used to take my book , and as the others shopped, I would find some little reading spot to curl up in.
Some of my favourite authors are Belinda Jones, Miranda Dickinson and Lindsey Kelk. They all have some fabulous locations in their stories, which always gives me serious wanderlust!.
