A Triumphant Return And Some Great News!

Hello there, my lovely readers! 

I know, I know... it's been a while hasn't it? I've been a bit rubbish about updating recently and for that I apologise. Sometimes life has a way of taking over and forcing us to prioritise our to-do lists, doesn't it? 

Lots of changes have occurred in Lauraland, but now I'm back on the blog and I fully intend to stay here! I've read a whole bunch of great books in my absence so will be blogging about them soon. I guess I'll have some updating to do with the different challenges I'm a part of too. If you're keeping score then have a gander at the Audiobook Challenge, the What's In A Name Challenge, and the TBR Challenge pages over the next few days. 

Before I start writing and posting reviews, I have some great news! I now have a teeny-tiny book review column in the South Wales Evening Post! By-line and all! Woop! It's an opportunity I've been given in my shiny new job as a librarian and I'm thrilled with it. It's going to be a challenge as I have to submit four reviews each week and they can only be 80 words each! I'm so used to rambling on that whittling down the wordcount might prove difficult. 

I always did talk too much...
