I have been buzzing for the whole month and still am as I’m 7 working days away from leaving my job in the library service. But do not fret people I am now moving […]

An Update – What's been happening to me?!

Hello Everyone it’s been a while or at least it feels like it to me. I mean my posts have been here there and everywhere, there’s no consistency to my blogging life at the moment which sucks for me as I do enjoy it! Some days I can’t be bothered to write and review and others I just want to write a short review as I really don’t want to do such a long one. Then I question myself because I never get to say everything I want to in a short one. You can tell I’m babbling here, but you […]

EXCITING NEWS – A SPINSTER CLUB SPECIAL by Holly Bourne

Right now I am on holiday but I received some exciting news in time for me to schedule this very special post. You don’t need me to explain how I adore Holly Bourne’s novels and especially that of the Spinster Club series as well. It has been an incredible and inspiring series of the last couple of years and it’s started a feminist revolution on how we perceive ourselves through Holly’s writing – I hope it continues to be a sensational series for years to come and I know she has only started. She is a literary hero to  me […]
