Book Club: 2023 Reads

Book Club: 2023 Reads

One of the most wonderful things that I have done this year has been to facilitate a book club in a local café. Not only have I met some lovely people but it has created a fantastic space to talk about books (our group reads and others).

Here, I've created a list here of the books that I have read this year. If you are stuck for ideas about what to read next, you might find something in this list. There isn't any description - it is just a starting point in terms of titles and authors (fiction and non-fiction). I have enjoyed something about all of these books.

Hopefully, a blog comments section will appear in the New Year but, in the meantime, let me know if you read any of the books (and what you think) by emailing kate@trewithkate.co.uk. I'd love to know!
