I often come across books from this series in the bookstores I frequent. For this reason, I had very high expectations prior to reading this first book in the seemingly popular and best-selling series.

The erratic shifts between heavy rainfall and dazzling sunshine that characterises May can be rather annoying for those looking to spend time outdoors. Never fear! Here are some new releases that will bring that Summer energy right to your doorstep.
