Whenever I get a spare moment you will find me with my nose in a book 📖📚📔 I absolutely love to read, fiction or non fiction I don't mind I'm here for it! So with this in mind I thought it would be lovely to share this with the community and perhaps get a little recommended reading list going!
As it's Earth Day soon I thought I would kick off with some of the Community Team's favourite "Earthly" books!
Have you read any of these? Do you have a "self-help" book that you find yourself going back to time and time again? We would love to hear your book recommendations fiction or non fiction we welcome them all (just remember...keep it clean 😉)
