Book reviews from Latte Lindsay and the KappaCino Book Club.

Finding a good book can be hard. Sometimes it’s best to take recommendations from friends or join a book club for inspiration. With this all in mind, I present to you the KappaCino Book Club.

This club is open to anyone who likes to read. Here you will find posts on various books that I have read and you can join in too by leaving a comment.

For every review, there will be links to my affiliates where you can buy the books I have reviewed. These affiliate programmes help to fund the site with every purchase.
