Day 9 of Blogtober and today, I'm participating in another Top Ten Tuesday, which is hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl and this week's prompt is the Longest Books You've Read.

For a while, I've been regularly posting pictures of my TBR pile on Twitter and a bit on here. Then I had a brainwave. With my new shelves, I could actually organise this mess of a TBR, so I dedicated a shelf to all the books I need to read. Here's the first glimpse into … Continue reading Introducing my TBR shelf

So I have a set of monthly goals that encourage me to read more diverse books, which I obviously want to help promote and I really enjoy reading about experiences that are outside my own. It's so nice to see some representation that matches myself sometimes, so I just want other people to be able … Continue reading Checking my July Goals

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
