Summer is officially upon us, and for the book lovers out there, that means it's time to lay on a sun lounger, in the park or on the beach with your nose tucked into a paperback. While ebooks and hardbacks are also an option, there's something about a paperback that screams the 'warmer months are here'.
With 'bookstagram' and #booktok screaming about The Fourth Wing by Rebecca Yarros and the latest, spicy romance novel from Ana Huang, or being greeted by the plethora of bookstands in your local shop, it can be hard to know where to start. Thankfully there's a new book bundle service that takes the stress of choosing your next page-turner away.
Bookhound is the new online service where you just need to pick your favourite genre, and you'll get four books that everyone's been talking about sent out to you. It's perfect for when you're about to head off on holiday, and can't decide which books to take - or you can choose your own four books for just £9.99.
Now here's the best part! They release new book bundles every month and every season, so depending what your reading appetite is, you'll always be able to find the right box for you.
The July Bestselling Feel Good Fiction Bundle (DMSR234A), which is currently out now, has some of the biggest names in romance at the minute - such as Tessa Bailey and Jenny Colgan.
'Hook, Line and Sinker' by Tessa Bailey, was nominated for Best Romance back in 2022, at the Goodreads Choice Award. It follows on from 'It Happened One Summer', but focuses on a completely new couple. The book follows town playboy Fox Thornton - he has never wanted to commit, but now that he's living with his best friend Hannah Bellinger, that might be changing. With forced proximity, fake dating and a dash of jealousy - this romance had readers talking.
Over 263,000 people have rated the slow burn, highly on Goodreads - and it holds a spot on over 82,000 user's 'to be read' shelves, making it one to snap up and see if #booktok are onto something.
The July bundle also contains 'Welcome to Rosie Hopkins' Sweetshop of Dreams' by Jenny Colgan, 'Three Weddings and a Proposal' by Sheila O'Flanagan, and Erin Green's 'Taking a Chance on Love'. So if you're one that loves to devour romance novels by the day, whilst sunning yourself on holiday? Then this really is the bundle for you.
And it's not just romance readers who can benefit from Bookhound though, there are a range of thrillers, bundles of children's books and even puzzles that you can treat yourself or someone else to. You can shop the full range at Bookhound here.
