The mum-of-three went on: "But as I get older I definitely find it's something I really like doing. It's something that seems to be a bit of time just for me. I don't do it enough… But I find that more and more it's just a really nice time to get lost and escape and switch off from actual reality.

"So we thought what a better way to do this than to create our own Wylde library which is over on the website… There will be loads of recommendations…
"I just feel it's a really lovely thing to do to share and enjoy and maybe you can have some of those moments yourself where you just get lost in someone else's world for a little bit… Happy reading!"

Holly's followers differed in their reactions to the news, with one commenting: "I hate reading, I wish I didn't…" and another adding: "I'm going to try… When I'm at home… I can't seem to concentrate."
However, others were more enthusiastic, with one writing: "Love this," and another agreeing: "You can be absolutely free when you're reading a book".
