Posted September 21, 2020 by Emma in Book tag, Bookish Post / 3 Comments

Happy Monday my lovely bookworms. I’m sorry I didn’t post that much more last week, work got the better of me and I got super tired. But this week I wanted to start off with a fun book tag.

The thought of going into a bookshop to buy a new book is so exciting. Browsing the shelves and smiling when I see my favourites displayed. Buying a book […]

Posted September 14, 2020 by Emma in Bookish Post, Monthly Wrap-Up Post, Wrap-Up / 7 Comments

Helllllllloooooooo everyone. I haven’t been around, how are we all? I’ve missed you and posting on my blog. It’s been nearly over 3 weeks since I last posted. The reason mainly was work. I’m back to working as a school librarian after 6 months off, the constant thinking and over thinking was certainly draining and I just wanted to read and not blog. I found it difficult as I lacked the inspiration and brain power to come up or start writing some posts. BUT I’M BACK!! So this will be a month and half worth of a wrap-up post, including […]

Happy Wednesday my bookish friends. Yesterday I finished my most anticipated read in like forever!! I’ve been waiting a long time for this book so my excitement for Midnight Sun was off the charts. So here is my spoiler free review and my extreme fangirling over the fifth book in the Twilight Saga. My Review This book, this series is what really started my love of reading and YA, and the dark fantasy genre. It was the highlight of my teenage years, and when I heard this book was finally coming out, I don’t think I’ve felt such genuine […]

Hello my lovely readers. A new week and a hot one it is in the UK. Hope you all had a lovely weekend. I went out on Saturday which was lovely but mighty hot and Sunday I pretty much read all day which I loved. It’s been a long time since I did that without any distractions and just the mind of Edward Cullen to read. Today I thought I would start the week with a book tag, that my friend Steph from Bookslovereaders tagged me in. I’m excited as I haven’t done one in ages and this looks awesome. […]

Happy Monday my lovely readers. It’s August, where is time going?! 2020 is just whizzing away, sometimes I can’t seem to catch up especially as I write another monthly wrap-up for July.

Book Review | The Beautiful by Renée Ahdieh

Posted July 30, 2020 by Emma in 2020 books, Book Review / 4 Comments

Happy Thursday my lovely readers. Today I’m bringing you a review of dark fantasy that I simply loved.

Plus the sequel The Damned has just been released which I will need to read ASAP. So enough of my rambling, let head onto the review. My Review The days of vampire books has returned and it’s like the inner teenager in me who loved Twilight and the beginnings […]
