Hello all! Hope you're all enjoying the summer! I'm currently on holiday in a huge castle in the South of France and enjoying relaxing, playing games, and of course reading a lot! Today's post is a review of a dreamy summer romance that's perfect for your holiday TBRs! Title: A Sky Painted Gold Author: Laura Wood Series: n/a Pages: 356 Publisher: Scholastic Date of Publication: 5th July, 2018 Source: Publisher for review* Synopsis from Goodreads: Growing up in her sleepy Cornish village dreaming of being a writer, sixteen-year-old Lou has always wondered about the grand Cardew house which has stood empty for years. And when the owners arrive for the summer - a handsome, dashing brother and sister - Lou is quite swept off her feet and into a world of moonlit cocktail parties and glamour beyond her wildest dreams. But, as she grows closer to the Cardews, is she abandoning her own ambitions... And is there something darker lurkin...
I've probably titled this a bit inappropriately, but whatever. Book news! This isn't going to be a regular feature or anything, by the way, just feel like I should tell you that. There's just a bit of news about this week that I need to tell you about is all. If it was going to be a regular feature, I probably would've given it a better name...
Anyway!
First off, Marissa Meyer, author of the brilliant Cinder and Scarlet, will be making a brief stop in the UK in a week and a bit! How exciting is that! She'll be a doing a talk/Q&A/signing at Waterstone's Bromley on the 26th March, 6:00pm. I'm really upset that I won't be able to go to this one, actually. I would've loved to meet her, but even if you can't make it, she'll hopefully come back to the UK soon! And also, you can phone an order for a signed copy from the shop if you're desperate :)

Also, Laini Taylor of Daughter of Smoke and Bone and fame is hosting a trailer competition for its sequel, Days of Blood and Starlight - in which the winning entry will win $1000! Here's the video which explains it all. :)
And this last this is less news and more me asking for help. Apparently Google Reader is shutting down, and for a blogger I know relatively little about the internet and the technological stuff, so if anyone wants to help me a)understand what the hell's going on and b)how to get a new platform for people to follow me and what not, it would be much welcomed!
That's all for today, I think!
