Thank you for visiting IzzyReads.com. This site began as useful place to share information on the books that I enjoy. I hope that you find some recommendations here that you like and that you will enjoy your visit.
My book choices are influenced by friends and by reviews. I love to read the books pages in the newspapers at the weekend and I keep my To Be Read ( TBR ) list is always longer than the time I have available for reading.
I am a member of a very informal book club that gets together about once a month to drink wine and chat about books. If you’re interested, here are some tips on how to set up your own book club.
