This is book is a good, quick read that packs a punch; I love the simplicity and clarity it presents.
Centred on change, “who moved my cheese” challenges readers to think differently about change and explains how this mindset shift can equip us for success. Through the central story we learn not to allow fear, particularly fear of change, to hold us back.
Heart and Hustle was a great read full of useful tips for life and for business. Having been a long time follower of Patricia Bright on YouTube, I rushed to pick up this book as I hoped it would have her huge YouTube personality and more of her life story. Sadly, whilst the tone of the book was friendly and conversational, I felt like it missed a bit of Patricia Bright’s warmth. Although I loved that there were a few stories of her life and upbringing, I personally wanted more.
It’s a new month and that means a new list of books that have us excited!

If ever you needed an excuse to have some ice-cream, there you have it. Whilst you’re at it, let us know if you excited about any of the new books below or others coming out this month.

You can quickly see why I, like many, bought into one of the biggest scams of childhood.
On the surface, this book appears to be a book about race – A young, newly-wed black man is wrongfully convicted of a crime we know he did not commit (not a spoiler, the blurb gives this away) or so it seems.
In the midst of this chaotic pandemic period, we can find comfort in our book worlds. We hope you are all keeping safe with your families or friends. Below are new books coming out this month that have us excited:
