★★★★★ This is actually the first Holly Bourne book I’ve read. A few months ago there were a whole load of her books in the Kindle sale so I picked up a few. I’ve heard quite a lot this year about The Places I’ve Cried in Public so I decided to try this one first. There is… Continue reading The Places I’ve Cried In Public review
★★★★ I’ve had The Little Shop of Happily Ever After on my Kindle for years, pretty much since I’ve had my Kindle, but because I’ve been leaning more towards fantasy, it’s just been forgotten about. But as I’m trying to not read other fantasy while I’m in the middle of the Throne of Glass series,… Continue reading The Little Shop of Happily Ever After review
★★★★ Tower of Dawn is the 6th installment in the Throne of Glass series. I'd had a massive break between Empire of Storms and this one because I went down to Cornwall to see my family for 3 weeks (can't believe that was a month ago!) After the excitement of the last book I was… Continue reading Tower of Dawn review
★★★★ I first heard about Meraki on Bookstagram but I can't remember from which account. Meraki; a syren story is written by Naomi Kelly and independently published. When it came up as a 99p deal on Kindle i rushed to buy it. Meraki is centred on Wren, a syren who has run (or swam) away… Continue reading Meraki review
This week has been fairly busy, being the first full week with children in school. Bit of a shock going from 20 children at most in my bubble before the summer holidays to 120... So I was a bit tired by the end of the week! Currently reading I'm not about half way through Tower… Continue reading Weekly wrap up
So this is a non bookish post but I thought I'd share what I spent the majority of lockdown doing! I started to learn to knit in January this year and then work got busy and stressful so I stopped. Then March happened and i was only going in once every couple of weeks so… Continue reading Knitted Blanket!
I was very lucky that I received a few books for my birthday! Eek, 31… Doesn’t feel that long ago that I was in my early 20s. My housemates know that the majority of my bedroom is books and one, Amy, knows about this blog and Bookstagram account. She got me one that’s been on… Continue reading Birthday Books
★★★★★ I’ve had The Language of Flowers by Vanessa Diffenbaugh on my Kindle since a colleague at the first school I worked in (so about 7 years) recommended it to me. I think I’ve just been so distracted by fantasy and dystopian that I haven’t thought to read it until now. However, as I’m in… Continue reading The Language of Flowers
I started playing along with this meme after I saw it on Amanda’s blog Literary Weaponry. I still can’t find the original. Time for part thirteen! The idea is: You go on to your Goodreads want to read shelf.Order the books so the date ascends.Take the first 5 or however many you want books. If… Continue reading Down the TBR Hole #13
★★★★ I was kindly given a copy of an e-book ARC from the author Rebecca Crunden in exchange for an honest review. This is the first book in The Outlands Pentalogy. As soon as Crunden said it was dystopian, I was very keen to read it, dystopian being one of my favourite genres. A Touch… Continue reading A Touch of Death
