Fangirl Friday is the time of the week where I choose something related to books that makes me happy. This could be be a topic, a genre, a trope, a theme or anything else! And it can result in any kind of post; fan art, a rec list etc etc. There are no limitations as long as whatever it is makes me happy or excited! WHY COFFEESHOPS?For the first Fangirl Friday I want to celebrate the beautiful union of coffeeshops and books. When the weather is dreary and you’re wet and tired there is no better place to take shelter than a coffee shop (apart from a book shop, but usually I spend a lot more money there than I do in a coffee shop and so I try to avoid frequenting them too often haha). Let me set the scene; a comfy couch. A hot drink. A sweet treat. The hustle and bustle of everyday life without any of the pressure to interact with anyone other than your barista. I finished work early today to meet some friends for lunch and after we were done I wasn’t quite ready to head home and call it a day, so I took myself and Wranglestone by Darren Charlton to my nearest cafe. A chai latte and a brownie later I was comfortably enthralled in a zombie filled adventure. It felt like the perfect choice of book too. In Wranglestone winter is just starting to set in and as I read the weather outside seemed to worsen. Only when the rain started to let up did I decide it was time to make my exit, and I wish I could have stayed longer. Ironically enough the first place I went when I was done was a bookshop. Do you have a favourite coffee shop? A favourite drink or snack to have while you’re reading? Or do you prefer to read in the comfort of your own home? Let me know in the comments! And talking of Wranglestone, expect a review sometime in the next week! I’m really enjoying this one so far!

Reading in a coffee shop sounds absolutely fantastic! But I’d have to say my favorite reading spot is my house on a nice spring day with the windows open and a cool breeze blowing through. 😁

YES!!! When I first got there today my usual sofa was taken so I sat in the armchair near it and as soon as I heard one of them say they were ready to leave I was like “HI HELLO CAN I HAVE YOUR SEAT” ?
