A Very Personal Post

· Posted by at
I don't normally write personal posts, but I felt it was necessary to explain why I have been a little MIA lately. 

The past week has been one of the toughest of my life. Last Saturday while playing Netball (a sport similar to basketball), our teammate and friend collapsed on court during our match and sadly passed away. Loosing anyone is hard, but for it to happen so suddenly and to someone so young, only 4 weeks before her wedding, was absolutely tragic. Our netball team and club we're shocked, devastated and utterly heartbroken.

Like many of you would know, reading can be extremely therapeutic...an escape from our daily lives. For me that has never been truer, and having my books to escape into this week has been a blessing. And I'm so grateful to have my blog to keep me preoccupied. However the past week has been busy and looking at my email inbox, with so many unread emails, I just know I will have missed something; a cover reveal, blog tour or review request, so I apologize for anything I may have missed.

I will continue blogging, however it may be a little less frequent over the next couple of weeks. In the meantime, give your loved ones a hug and hold them close. xxx

    I'm so sorry Amy, that is incredibly tragic and there are really no words that can offer comfort at a time like this. My thoughts are with both you and the young lady's family. If you ever need to talk, or just need a friend to listen, please email or Tweet me, I'll be thinking of you.
