I recently checked out some books from my favorite author, Sophie Kinsella, from the library and I fell in love with her writing style too. Her latest book, "Lottie Big Sky", is about a girl named Lottie who isn't exactly sure when her boyfriend will propose to her. She's convinced that he'll get down on one knee and ask for her hand in marriage at some point soon, but when that moment doesn't arrive, she jumps at the opportunity to travel abroad with him instead. And just as things are starting to look up, an old flame reappears, reminding Lottie of their past plans to get married at a certain age. The book follows Lottie's journey as she navigates her relationships and figures out what she really wants in life.

I have to say, I'm absolutely excited to read this book for May, and I can already tell it's going to be a wild ride. Sophie Kinsella is one of my favorite authors, and I've been a fan of hers since reading "Confessions of a Shopaholic". Her writing style is always engaging and entertaining, and I know I'm going to love this book. I also have a few other books lined up for the month, including "The Elite" by Kiera Cass, which is the sequel to her hit series "The Selection".

I recently received some amazing books from Three Rivers Press, which are part of Crown Publishing. They sent me two books, one for myself and another for my viewers to give away. I'm really excited about these books because I've heard great things about them, and I think they're going to be a lot of fun to read. The first book is called "To My Assistant, Things I'll Never Do to You (But Many Other Crazy Bosses Will)", which sounds like it's going to be a hilarious and entertaining read. It's written in emails, which will definitely make it feel more modern and relatable.

I've also been sent another book by Lydia Whitlock, called "Dear Girls Above Me". This book is inspired by a true story, and it follows the author's journey as he navigates his relationships and tries to figure out what makes women tick. I think this book is going to be really interesting and insightful, and I'm excited to dive into it.
