Always Trust In Books: Update On My Absence And Return

Hello everyone! I have been away for quite a while with absolutely no update or explanation as to why and I felt now is the time to get back into the fold.

2020 has been an absolutely terrifying year for us here in the Always Trust In Books household as my wife has spent all of it in hospital. After a routine surgery my wife contracted a serious infection (necrotising fasciitis to be specific) and it very nearly bested her. My wife, being the incredibly strong woman I know her to be, has since made a long and gruelling recovery and is now home and mostly out of the woods.

I have been under a lot of pressure these last few months and it left me unable to even contemplate picking up a book. I was 80% of the way through Beast by Matt Wesolowski when everything went down (an amazing book, a must read!) and I haven’t read a page since. I apologise to all the authors, publicists and everyone who I had arrangements with for this set back.

I sincerely intend on returning to blogging very soon. I have a huge pile of books to get through and I just need to get to a place where I can get through them with excitement and intrigue instead of stress-related fatigue and dread. I really appreciate every single person who has supported this blog so far and I hope I can get back into full swing and start talking books non-stop again when I feel ready.

Thanks for stopping by to read this update and please recommend me a book to draw me back into reading sooner rather than later!
