Top 5 Binge-Reading series

Posted April 10, 2020 by Emma in Booked-In, Bookish Post, Discussion Post / 2 Comments

Hello my lovely bookish friends. Every week I’ve been doing some reading lists as part of my Booked-In blog series which is over the next coming month or so. It’s about sharing love of books, supporting authors, self-care tips and more. We need comfort reads, but what about those series that you can just binge read all the time. A world you never want to escape so you just keep on reading and reading. I tried to pick some different series and ones that mean something in my reading journey. Today I’m sharing… My Top 5 Binge Reading Series The […]

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 […]

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. […]
