Weekend Book Buzz – 19/20 January 2019

Posted 20 January 2019 by Katie in Book Buzz / 1 Comment

Welcome to the first Weekend Book Buzz for 2019! As you can see, I’ve started the new year with a brand new website, which is why it’s taken me a couple of weeks to get back to the Weekend Book Buzz. There are only so many hours in a day!

If you haven’t a chance to do so yet, make sure you go to my homepage and have a bit of a look around. I’ve made it easier than ever for you to find reviews and interviews, and I have a brand new section that lists new releases by month—and you can find them listed right up to June 2019 so far!

But for now, let’s get on with the rest of the bookish news!

Blog tours are great for getting a cross-section of reviews on a book, and they often have giveaways associated with them too! Click on the hyperlinks or the tour banners to find our more information about each tour. Please note that these links will only be live once the blog tour begins.
