Hi - I'm Clare Swindlehurst; welcome to my little corner of the Internet!
I'm a bit of a bookaholic - I love books so much that new ones appear on my shelf faster than I can read them LOL. Blue Archipelago Reviews is full of reviews of all the books I've read since January 2008, as well as other bookish thoughts.
Feel free to have a mooch around; maybe you'll discover some new books or authors that you've never come across before.
If you've read the same books as me be sure to leave a comment and let me know what you thought. I'm always on the lookout for new titles and authors so if you come across a fabulous book be sure to leave me a recommendation!
If you're an author or a publisher and you'd like me to review a book for you then you can click here to send me a message :)

Every book I review has a star rating - here's what they all mean:

• 6 Stars - Wow! One of the best books I have ever read - highly recommended
• 5 Stars - Thoroughly enjoyed it and will read it again one day - highly recommended
• 4 Stars - Great book - kept me interested from cover to cover
• 3 Stars - So so - not really my cup of tea but you might like it
• 2 Stars - Wish I hadn't wasted my time
• 1 Star - One of the worst books I have ever read
• 0 Stars - Didn't even finish it
