    January 2017 | Wrap Up

    If you’ve been around on this blog for a little while you will note an utter lack of consistency when it comes to monthly features expected of all good little book bloggers, namely monthly favourites, TBRs, and/or wrap-up posts. My own take on this kind of consistency is sporadic, at best, usually when struck with…

    It’s yet another Tuesday, so that means another Top Ten Tuesday!

This week’s topic is All about the visuals: Top…

  • Friday Reads | 27th January 2017

    Another Friday, another Friday Reads. Another week has gone by, folks, and the world keeps on turning on… As you may have seen in last week’s Friday Reads post, I foolishly decided to try reading Leo Tolstoy’s War and Peace, because I’m a masochist, apparently. If I’m being honest, when I decided to set one of my…

  • Top Ten Tuesday | Books I Loved But Never Reviewed

  • 24 in 48 Readathon

    When is it probably the wrong time to participate in a readathon? When you’re reading a long af book like Tolstoy’s War and Peace. However, I’m still going to do it, because I’m curious as to whether I can actually get close to reading for 24 hours in 2 days – which is what this readathon is all…

  • Friday Reads | 20th January 2017

    Yes, I’m doing 2 Friday Reads posts in a row. Why? Well, to be honest, this week has been a bit just bitty… low level stuff has happened that made me not get the opportunity, or desire, to post. Also, mostly, I’m lazy. But here we are, another Friday, another weekend looming so let’s try…
