I guess this is hello again?

It's been a while. 2019, 2020, and 2021 were rough years for me. Everything that could have gone wrong, did. And I honestly didn't know how to handle it. This blog, and reading, had always been my escape from everything and anything that was going on in my life. But at the time, nothing could …

Top 5 Tuesday: Autumnal Book Covers: Blogtober Day 8

Happy Tuesday! There's no topic for this weeks Top 5, but I didn't want to miss an opportunity to make a list for this week. I was trying to think of Autumnal themed posts that I could do, and then I remembered a similar topic that we did last year - Autumnal Book covers. There …

5 Star Predictions: Blogtober Day 7

It's the beginning of another week and what better way to kick it off than thinking about all the books that I want to read that I hope will be a 5 star read. Looking back on my Goodreads page, I haven't rated that many books 5 stars this year. A lot of the books …

What Happened to Book Adaptations? Blogtober Day 6

Flashback to a few years ago, when The Hunger Games was one of the biggest movies in the world, Divergent had just been released, and The Maze Runner was on its way. It seemed like almost every couple of months, another YA book to movie adaptation was coming soon. There are so many adaptions that I could …

October TBR: Blogtober Day 5

Monthly TBR's never go well for me, but here I am, giving one another go haha! For the past few months, I haven't really been that into reading and I think part of that was down to Uni. I'd constantly have to read books, ones that most of the time I wasn't that interested in. …

October Book Releases: Blogtober Day 4

It seems like there's loads of books coming out this Autumn that I can't stop thinking about. Usually, I do one post for the whole of the season, but there's too many books this time around to do that! The majority of these are being published on the same date as well - it looks …

September Book Haul: Blogtober Day 3

September flew by so fast that I didn't have a chance to visit any book shops. I promised myself that once I handed in my Masters dissertation, I'd treat myself to a new book, and pop in to my local Waterstones. But that never happened! I got so busy with work, and then I got …

September Wrap-Up and October Reading Challenge: Blogtober Day Number 2

I forgot to mention in my blog post last night that I'm going to attempt Blogtober this year! I've wanted to participate in Blogtober for the longest time. But with University assignments, I've never had the time. This year that's all different! I've finished Uni and just been made full time at work (so I now …

Top 5 Tuesday: Favourite BookTube Channels

Happy Tuesday! This week's Top 5 Tuesday is all about our favourite BookTubers. It's been a while since I sat down and watched a video - I used to watch loads of booktubers constantly, but for some reason, this year I've watched barely anything. Despite that, I still have a few favourites whose videos I always try …

August Illumicrate Unboxing: Armed and Dangerous

It's time for another unboxing that's a month late haha! This time it's the August Illumicrate - the theme for the month was 'Armed and Dangerous'. When I saw the theme reveal I was pretty excited because it sounded like it was going to be a great box. Unfortunately, this wasn't one that I loved …
