• Favourite of 2023 Reads – Poetry

  Poetry is a genre I sometimes feel isn’t always one people will pick up but I think it’s probably more accessible than you think. Here are six of my favourite collections from last year that I definitely recommend you pick up.

• Favourite of 2023 Reads – Non-Fiction

  Non-Fiction is such a broad genre and we’ve got quite the range here! We learn so much from fiction when we see ourselves in stories, but non-fiction can have just as much impact with the author speaking directly to us.
