One of my very favourite places when the weather warms up is in my very own backyard.

We are lucky to have a wonderful outdoor space that allows the sun to stream down on my legs (yes, mum I wear sunscreen) while I drink my cup of tea and listen to my children play.

It is my favourite time because I often escape out there with a magazine or a book. Sometimes a new one, or sometimes I just take one of my classic favourites and am immediately transported to my happy place.

I am always on the search for a great new book (if you have/know/love/recommend/hate a book please let me know!)

I have stumbled across this reading list from Lauren Conrad that looks like it has some pearlers on it.

What do you think? Can you recommend something else?
