Aug 19, 2018Sep 23, 20183 Comments

I've been a bit hit and miss with these weekly wrap-ups, as I've had so much on (which you'll find out in a post next week) and I've just run out of time to blog. However, I'm back today with everything I've read since the beginning of August, as I decided to just consolidate it … Continue reading Books I’ve Read This Week

In case you missed Part 1, I read 22 books over the month of July in the midst of a very hectic time. Today, I'll share what the 11 … Continue reading July Wrap Up Part 2

July Wrap-Up Part 1

Aug 6, 2018Dec 15, 20182 Comments

I am aware that we are now nearly a week into August, so this wrap-up is a little bit late! However, I've been really busy and unfortunately just haven't had the time to write this until now. Better late than never though, I guess. July was a very hectic month for me, but I still … Continue reading July Wrap-Up Part 1

Current Physical TBR 8.7.18

Jul 8, 2018Jul 8, 20181 Comment

For a while now, I've been doing this thing on Twitter for a while, where I post a photo of my physical TBR (the majority of which are usually library books) and tag the authors. I just do whenever I feel like it, so there's no commitment. I decided that I should take this thing onto my … Continue reading Current Physical TBR 8.7.18

So, I've had this blog for two weeks now and decided that I should let you guys know a little bit more about my reading habits. Essentially, I read everywhere and at most times of the day, you'll find me with my nose firmly stuck in a book. Anyway, I want to start a semi-weekly … Continue reading Friday 6th July: What I’ve Read This Week

Top Ten Tuesday: 3rd July

Jul 3, 2018Jul 6, 2018Leave a comment

Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly theme hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl and this week's theme is Books with Red, White and Blue covers to mark Independence Day in the USA. I'm not usually someone who really scrutinises the covers of books, so this became quite a challenge for me to remember 10 books that fit … Continue reading Top Ten Tuesday: 3rd July
