February Wrap up - Book Haul & What to Expect Next Month

Welcome, welcome, dear reader.

Thanks for stopping by on my blog. It was quiet over here in February because I was in Kenya, to volunteer as a Teacher in an Education Project. I will definitely write a blogpost about this soon.

I also didn't get to post all the reviews of the books that I've read while working in Kenya, so in March, I will review some of those as well.

I do hope your month was a good one and please stop by again!

Synopsis
Framed for a murder she didn't commit...
As one of HM Prison Holloway's most high-profile new inmates, Helen Grace has a target on her back and nowhere to hide. She has made a long list of enemies over the course of her career--some are incarcerated within these very walls. When one of Helen's fellow prisoners is found mutilated and murdered in her own locked cell, it's clear that the killer is someone on the inside.

But time is running out for Helen as she races to expose the person who framed her, and the body count in the prison starts to climb. Helen will need to draw on all her investigative skills and instincts to catch the serial killer behind these murders and discover the truth--unless the killer finds her first.

My trip to Kenya

Dear followers, those of you who have been following me a year or longer, might remember that I went to Kenya last year.
I wrote two blogposts about it, here and here.

I'm so happy to announce that I was chosen to go with this great project called Teachers4Teachers, AGAIN this year!

(Part Dutch, Part English)

That means I'll be leaving tomorrow and I'll be back on February the 25th. 
You will not hear anything from me until then, but I do hope to check back on all of you when I'm home again.

Hakuna Matata!
