Friday Reads | 10th June
Read more: Friday Reads | 10th JuneJust a quick Friday Reads post from me today where I’ll share what I plan to read this Friday and into the weekend ahead. It will be no surprise to learn that I’m still working my way through A Game of Thrones (slow but steady wins the race, right?) for the #readasoiaf readalong and I…

Friday Reads | 5th February
Read more: Friday Reads | 5th FebruaryAnother Friday, another blessed end to the week. Except I’m luckier than most and only have a part time job so, really, every Friday sees me looking forward to a four day weekend until I have to go back into work on Wednesday. Plenty of time to catch up on some reading and reviewing then,…

An Update & Friday Reads | 15th January
Read more: An Update & Friday Reads | 15th JanuaryI have excellent news… I started a job last week. I know, I’m as surprised as you are. At its most basic, it means I no longer have to go to the soul-destroying non-place that is the local friendly Job Centre Plus – huzzah. At its best, it’s a job I think I can vaguely…

Friday Reads | 11th December
Read more: Friday Reads | 11th DecemberAs you might have been able to tell from the utter lack of posts since last week, the weekend and start of the week was… interesting, to say the least. The weather was what they euphemistically call “inclement”. For me that meant a mildly sleepless Saturday and Sunday night whilst the wind howled outside, for…

Friday Reads | 4th December
Read more: Friday Reads | 4th DecemberAnother week goes by, another Friday rolls round with the promise of a weekend’s worth of reading. For most people this Friday Reads trend (tag? Meme?) is especially relevant because they work hard 9-5 at jobs during the week so Saturday and Sunday represents 48 hours of blissful freedom from the office. However unemployed graduates…

Friday Reads | 27th November
Read more: Friday Reads | 27th NovemberHuzzah, huzzah, it’s Friday again! Which means it is high time for some weekend reading goal settings, regardless of how busy the weekend is looking. I don’t have much/anything planned at all for this weekend but I just have a funny sort of feeling that I’ll be distracted for a lot of it. I’m not…

Friday Reads | 20th November
Read more: Friday Reads | 20th NovemberLast week the unthinkable happened – I actually successfully read every book on my Friday Reads over the course of the weekend. I’m as surprised as anyone. However, none of them were particularly taxing reads, so that’s quite possibly how I managed to actually stick to a TBR for once. This weekend I’m hoping to…

Friday Reads | 13th November
Read more: Friday Reads | 13th NovemberUnsurprisingly I have fallen so far behind with NaNoWriMo that I feel like I’ve stopped trying to catch up. I had put reading on the backburner a little in favour of writing but in the past few days I’ve realised that, if I’m falling behind with writing anyway, I might as well read a little…

Friday Reads | 25th September 2015
Read more: Friday Reads | 25th September 2015This Friday Reads is an optimistic one (aren’t they always?) given I’ll be enjoying a long weekend of relaxation (hopefully) in Edinburgh with a trio of lovely friends. You’d think this means zero reading time but as I am me and everyone involved knows that, I’ll still be taking a couple of books along with me because…

Friday Reads | 18th September 2015
Read more: Friday Reads | 18th September 2015Long time no see. I was away enjoying a lovely relaxing holiday in Menorca for a week without proper Internet access – that’s my excuse and I’m sticking to it. I did manage to finish a couple of books whilst I was there though, so there is that. I come to you from the same…
