Top Five Tuesday | Books in my Audible library

So, it’s been a while since I’ve written one of these posts, having had to take a step back from the blog and concentrate on personal circumstances. However, even though I haven’t been reading much, that definitely hasn’t stopped me from downloading a bunch of books each month. My Audible library is looking a little cramped right now, but it’s nothing that a few days commuting cannot help!

Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone | J.K. Rowling

An incredible adventure is about to begin!

Boyfriend Material | Alexis Hall

Length: 13h 11m
Narrated By: Joe Jameson
Summary: Luc O’Donnell is tangentially – and reluctantly – famous. His rock-star parents split when he was young, and the father he’s never met spent the next 20 years cruising in and out of rehab. Now that his dad’s making a comeback, Luc’s back in the public eye, and one compromising photo is enough to ruin everything.
To clean up his image, Luc has to find a nice normal relationship…and Oliver Blackwood is as nice and normal as they come. He’s a barrister, an ethical vegetarian, and someone who has never inspired a moment of scandal in his life. In other words, he’s perfect boyfriend material. Unfortunately, apart from being gay, single, and really really in need of a date for a big event, Luc and Oliver have nothing in common. So they strike a deal to be publicity-friendly (fake) boyfriends until the dust settles. Then they can go their separate ways and pretend it never happened.
But the thing about fake-dating is that it can feel a lot like real-dating. And that’s when you get used to someone…start falling for them…don’t ever want to let them go.
