Happy Bookish New Year 2014

Happy New Year Everyone! Its been a long time since I have written a post and I think this is a good a time as any… a new year a new start. 2013 has been weird year for me with finishing and graduating college, starting a full time job and recently starting a NVQ, so I’m studying again. There has been very little time for reading, designing and blogging but that will change this year. I think I’m going to start by looking at the best 10 books of 2013…(I’m sure I could add a lot more to this list) […]

November is Sci-Fi Month!

As you have probably guessed over my previous tweets of things bookishly sci-fi, I’m part of a feature month hosted by Rinn Reads. Like Rinn I have been planning these posts as well as various guest posts and reviews to help throughout November. I for one don’t read a lot of Sci-Fi, nor adult nor YA so this has encouraged me to at least tackle The ever-growing TBR pile. So why not join in on the conversation at #RRSciFiMonth or tweet at @SciFiMonth. So let’s kick off Sci-Fi Month in style with a little intro post by yours truly and I’ll look […]

Its an opportunity to highlight our newest books or book related swag and to see what everyone else received for review, borrowed from libraries, bought in bookshops and downloaded onto eReaders each week. Unfortunately it has been a while since I have done a Showcase Sunday *sighs* but this week I got a little overloaded with books so I thought I would make a one of the best books I have received and looking forward to reading in the next few weeks. Work has also been […]
