January'17, book of the month.

2017 is tomorrow.

Can you even believe it ?

Let's put a new spin to the new year; a book-club is the way I decided to do that. 

If you still don't know what "Around Cairo Reads" is; it's a book-club where every month a book will be chosen to be read at your own pace throughout the entire month. 

Each month's read will be different and the whole idea is that us - readers - read together and discover fantastic new books with each other. Instagram talks and tweets will be posted throughout the month under the #aroundcairoreads; so come on hop on board. 

The extra thing is that the reads who live in Cairo get to MEET at the end of each month; so follow the hashtag for the meeting date and place announcement. 

For now that is all. 

Now are you read for the book of January?

You better be because I've only heard AMAZING things about it.

Catherine may be one of the most desired girls in Wonderland and a favorite of the unmarried King, but her interests lie elsewhere. A talented baker, she wants to open a shop and create delectable pastries. But for her mother, such a goal is unthinkable for a woman who could be a queen.

At a royal ball where Cath is expected to receive the King’s marriage proposal, she meets handsome and mysterious Jest. For the first time, she feels the pull of true attraction. At the risk of offending the King and infuriating her parents, she and Jest enter into a secret courtship.

Cath is determined to choose her own destiny. But in a land thriving with magic, madness, and monsters, fate has other plans.
