Hello my bookish friends, it’s Wednesday, hope your all well. I’m so excited for today post, it’s my stop on The Pieces of Ourselves blog tour by Maggie Harcourt. I’m currently reading this book and I will have my review either later this week. I’m loving it. If you remember from last week’s Top 5 Comfort Reads, Maggie’s Theatrical was on the list, so this new book is what I need right now. Today I have a guest post planned as part of my recent new author series, In the Mind of an Author. But before that, here is a little bit […]

BOOKED-IN | My top releases this Spring – Part 1

Posted March 30, 2020 by Emma in 2020 books, Booked-In, Bookish Post, LGBTQ+, Seasonal Reads, UKYA, YA / 2 Comments

Hello my bookish friends, happy Monday, hope you had a good weekend and you and your families are well. Back in January I started a new Seasonal Reads post where I spilt up all the most anticipated reads of the year in seasons. It’s Spring but also we are living in an upside down world where authors have books coming out and they struggling as they have no launch events. My first top tip in my Booked-In post was – PRE-ORDERING/ORDERING FROM WATERSTONES OR INDEPENDENT BOOK STORES TO DELIVER TO HOME. So this post is PART 1 as there is […]

Book Review | The Flatshare by Beth O’Leary

Posted March 27, 2020 by Emma in 2020 books, 5 Stars, Adult Fiction, Book Review, Romance / 2 Comments

My favourite Romance of the year so far, why did I take so long to get to this book!? It certainly gave me all the feels and a book hangover. MY REVIEW So I guess it wouldn’t come as a huge surprise to a lot of people that I loved this book. I wasn’t oblivious to the book, I mean it was all over social media and at the time it didn’t float my boat, which would probably shock a lot of people. Until it came out in paperback a month or so ago and it was on offer in […]

NEW BLOG SERIES – BOOKED-IN! | Everything you need bookishly while staying at home

Posted March 24, 2020 by Emma in Booked-In, Bookish Post, Discussion Post / 3 Comments

Hi Everyone, hope you are all well and staying safe. This blog will be a fountain of positivity and brightness. In light of the current situation I’ve created a new blog series called – BOOKED-IN! This series will feature authors and books which are being released during this time. I feel it’s important to support our authors as much as possible when their new book may suffer the consequences of the virus. Which is sad and we don’t want that. So over the next couple of months I will feature interviews, guest posts, reviews, of all the books coming out. […]

ARC Book Review | Thorn by Intisar Khanini

Posted March 16, 2020 by Emma in 2020 books, 5 Stars, Book Review, Fantasy, Favourites, YA / 0 Comments

So shall I start this review by saying it’s THE BEST YA FANTASY BOOK I’VE READ THIS YEAR! That’s on hell of a line to start off with but it’s true. I wasn’t expecting it, I admit, a complete surprise by Intisar’s debut novel is just phenomenal! It has everything and more in a fantasy and I honestly can’t wait to talk about it more. My Review Princess Alyrra is a pawn in her own future, she is known as for her brutal honesty and her mother hates it. The cruelty between her brother and her mother, she doesn’t stand […]

Hello dear readers, we are in the second week into March and my wrap-up of February has been a bit slow, so apologies for that. I guess I got about it with all of the blog tours last week and then thinking ‘should I still do one’ but my twitter response was Yes! So here it is. I wanted to do one as last month I did my Fantasy February and I really enjoyed it. I did some different and new posts, a review or two and loads of author guest posts with my new author series, In the Mind […]
