Bullet Journaling For the Rest of Us
It’s the beginning of the year, and you know what that means. It’s time for everyone, especially bloggers, to tout the merits of bullet journaling and show off their amazing and gorgeous journals. The rest of us sit back and think ‘I could never do that’ for a variety of reasons. No artistic abilities, terrible… Continue reading

Weekly Wrap-Up: 26 January 2018
Happy Friday! I’ve been a little quiet here and on social media this week because, well, everything else in my life has been crazy! Work is crazy, personal life is crazy, I’m attempting to start training for a half marathon, and we are packing up and heading to Edinburgh on Tuesday. Being so busy is… Continue reading

ARC Review: I Am Thunder by Muhammad Khan
By now you guys know that I am not a fan of contemporary YA books. I just don’t have much of an interest in modern teenagers and their teenage lives. However, I Am Thunder caught my eye because it deals with the radicalization of British teens by religious extremists. I figured it would shape up… Continue reading

Review: The Silent Companions by Laura Purcell
The Silent Companions had been sitting quietly on my Kindle for months when Author Sister recommended it. She had purchased the hardcover and absolutely devoured it — it ticks a lot of boxes for both of us.

Weekly Wrap-Up: 12 January 2018
Happy Friday! I cannot believe another week has come and gone already. I meant to have this up a few hours ago, but I forgot to schedule it in — oops! It has been pretty slow goings in terms of reading this week, but I’m honestly okay with that! I’ve been reading a fair few… Continue reading

Review: Turtles All the Way Down
had read two of John Green’s book before picking up this one and I have to say that I have a bit of a love-hate relationship with him. As in, I loved The Fault in Our Stars and hated (passionately) Looking for Alaska. Knowing this, I approached his latest novel, Turtles All the Way Down,… Continue reading

Review: An Enchantment of Ravens by Margaret Rogerson
I’ll be the first to admit it: I bought An Enchantment of Ravens because of its beautiful cover. I don’t think I’m the only one either — I kept seeing people raving about the book’s cover rather than the story inside. This ended up being a strange one for me — I initially really struggled… Continue reading
