About



Welcome to Simply Books!

Simply Books is a creative hobby blog that chats about everything related to books, reading and more.

Leila Goreil is the writer and creator of Simply Books and can’t wait to share her love of reading with you.

After seeing many others launch blogs and share their love of books, Leila, of course, wanted to put in her two cents.

Working full-time as a Marketing Manager and as a marketing creative freelancer, she knew she needed a space to gush about her favourite thing, (other than marketing and design), books!

Leila lives in Hamilton, ON where she also works and plays. 

When she is not reading (or working), she is catching up with friends and family, checking out local spots, trying a new restaurant or binging on Netflix shows with her cat, Willow.

Although the Book-Tube community and Goodreads connections create a great platform and conversation about books, Leila wanted to create her own little space to share reviews, book events and more that pique her interest.

Leila enjoys reading adult fiction, historical fiction, contemporary (chick-lit) and YA genres. 

Join Leila as she reads, reviews, rants and raves about everything book-related.
Leave a comment or send her a message.

She looks forward to hearing from you.
