Left on the Shelf

Hello. I'm Annie and I am a book reviewer and blogger. I love reading and talking about books. You will rarely find me without my dog and a hot beverage to hand. I have been a panellist for The Book Blogger Novel of the Year Award and the Romantic Novelist Association Award. I am also a published short story writer. I read books of all kinds and genres and am looking forward to sharing some of them with you.

 

My blog was established in 2013 and you can find it at https://leftontheshelfbookblog.blogspot.com/
