Six For Sunday – Debut Books and Authors Like a lot of us, I own way too many books! I would say that my TBR would be reaching, if not exceeding, the 100 mark and as we are planning on moving house fairly soon I’ve been on a self-imposed book buying ban since January (my... Continue Reading →
I can not believe ¼ of 2019 has gone already! I am so pleased that the sun is shining more and we are getting into warmer weather. We have so many blossom trees where we live and it’s beautiful when they all come out. In terms of my Biblioshelf life I am so happy with... Continue Reading →
Happy Tuesday Bibliofriends! This Top Ten Tuesday was so incredibly difficult for me due to the fact that I rarely listen to audiobooks. I also don’t listen to music when I read as I prefer the quiet (even though SOME PEOPLE in my household clearly don’t understand the fact that when undivided attention is on... Continue Reading →
Happy Sunday bibliofriends! Six for Sunday was quite an open topic this week with it being ‘Favourite Genre’ so I went for six sequels from my favourite genre, YA Fantasy, that I’m really looking forward to reading. Ever since I caught wind of ‘bookstagram’, I kept seeing pictures of absolutely gorgeous books. It was all... Continue Reading →
Happy Friday Bibliofriends! The weekend is finally here and it’s Friday 56 time. After receiving A Curse So Dark and Lonely by Brigid Kemmerer in Fairyloot's February 'Beast and Beauty Box', I aimed to take part in their readalong (you can access their blog here), however as with all good intentions, work seemed to get in the way!...

This week’s theme is ‘Books on my Spring TBR’. Last week I could barely think of ten things to put in my list whereas this week... Continue Reading →
Happy Sunday Bibliofriends! Six For Sunday I see the Six for Sunday tag in a lot of places and was keen to try and give it a go. For those that don’t already know, Six for Sunday is a weekly meme created by Steph @ A Little But A Lot and has a different weekly... Continue Reading →
To me, myths and legends form the absolute baseline for the tradition which today we call storytelling. I recently listened to Stephen Fry’s Mythos audiobook and it has reignited my love all things mythical. I was so excited when Umairah @Sereadipity tagged me in this Greek Mythology Tag that she found Lau Reads’ blog, that it... Continue Reading →
Happy Tuesday Bibliopiles! I’ve got to admit, I really struggled with this week’s Top Ten Tuesday for ‘standalones that need a sequel’. The books I tend to read are mostly of the YA / Fantasy genre and there seems to be plenty of duologies and trilogies and quadrologies, but not many standalones. So after scouring...

So my February mission was to try and start finishing some series which I was part-way through before every plot from every book I’ve ever read starts bleeding into each other. I read Six of Crows towards the end of 2018 and knew immediately that I wouldn’t be waiting very long before getting my hands... Continue Reading →
