Book Haul

The Colour Purple - Alice Walker

Us - David Nicholls

The Time Traveler's Wife - Audrey Niffenegger

Deliciously Ella - Ella Woodward

It's no secret that I'm a bit of a bookworm, but now that I have a job I can actually afford to splurge on a few books I've been eyeing up. I heard about the new David Nicholls novel when it was first published, and I picked it up knowing 0% what it's about, but if his other books are anything to go by, it's definitely going to be good. Similarly, I've heard so much about Ella Woodward's book, and having loved a few of her blog posts in the past, I thought I'd give this a read. Mostly for the 'healthy' cakes. Less calories, less guilt. More cake. Right?

I read The Colour Purple when I was 16, and I remember loving it to pieces, so I decided to pick up this gorgeous copy to give it another read. It was nothing like I expected it to be but probably one of my top 10 favourite novels. The Time Traveler's Wife isn't one I've read before, but I know in the distant past I've seen the film, so before I watched it again, I wanted to read the book first.
