Hello, I’m Emma.
I’m a UK book blogger, YA reader, Secondary School Librarian and coffee lover. Welcome to my corner of the internet, Never Judge a Book by its Cover.
This YA book blog was established in 2012 to review YA books. Since then it’s become a hub of book recommendations, author interviews, and in 2024 I will be starting my own YA book club.
This is a space to share my passion for books specifically Young Adult as you are never too old to read YA!
Feel free to say hi to me online.
