  • Cramathon TBR & Friday Reads | 18th December

    I’m tentatively participating in the 2015 Winter Cramathon, yay I do love a go readathon to make me make reading a priority! (Technically I guess this following post also counts as a Friday Reads since this is my sole reading intention for the weekend.) For those who aren’t aware Cramathon is a 3-day readathon running from…

  • Top Ten Tuesday | Top Ten 2015 YA Fantasy Reads

    Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly meme which was created by The Broke and Bookish and each week those lovely ladies decide on a topic around which you create lists (because who doesn’t love a good list) of ten books that fit the given theme. This week’s topic is based around Top Ten Best Books I Read This Year.…

  • Friday Reads | 11th December

    As 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

    Another 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…

  • T5W (sort of) | Experiences with Audiobooks

    Courtesy of the ever-wonderful Lainey, this week’s Top 5 Wednesday topic is Top 5 Favourite Audiobooks. Enter the problem – I don’t think I’ve even listened to more than five full audiobooks, let alone have five favourites out of those. However, I’ve been wanting to discuss audiobooks for a while so now seemed like the perfect opportunity and I have…

    Today I bring you The Bookish Alphabet Tag, as created by Mariana! I’ve seen this tag floating around a few places – most recently on The Quirky Book Nerd – and even though I wasn’t tagged I thought it looked like a lot of fun so I’m jumping straight on that bandwagon. There’s a couple…

  • Friday Reads | 27th November

    Huzzah, 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…
