Team WBC's Summer Reading
Unbelievably, we're already halfway through the year and all of a sudden it's summer. Here at The Willoughby Book Club we've been planning our summer jaunts for a while, and can't wait to dig our toes into the sand or the grass, take a deep breath of fresh air and begin to relax. And what better time for reading than on holidays? As booklovers, we need to put serious thought into what we take to read on our holidays, because there's nothing worse than having reading time but nothing to read (or the 'wrong' title)! Some of us will be reading new releases, some of us tackling the stacks of books we've gathered so far this year, and some of us just like to meander. How about you?

We Asked You To Choose Our Books!
As a bit of fun in this sunshine-soaked May we asked our Instagram followers to vote for which book we should read next. It actually felt quite liberating to have the decisions made for us about what to read, particularly as we all put in so much time choosing books for others!

The Stars are Guiding Me! Reading According to your Star Sign

Do you believe in star signs? For thousands of years, astrologists and mystics have been looking to the skies above for answers to some of the most profound questions imaginable. ‘What should I do with my life?’, ‘Will I find true love?’, or ‘Should I get a new job?’.

Sometimes the question can be as simple as: ‘I’ve finished my book… now what should I read?’.
