Posted February 26, 2020 by Emma in 5 Stars, Adult Fiction, Bookish Post, Fantasy, Fantasy Feb, Favourites / 4 Comments

Hello my bookish friends, we are half way throughout the week! Yay, we are nearly at the weekend but that also means we are near the end of February already. I really hate how time flies. But anyways I digress. I still have a few more Fantasy themed posts to post. Today’s one is chosen by you via Twitter. Now when I wrote the title I actually thought I’ve read 5 Adult Fantasy books, in a way I have but I’ve read the rest of the series to ones I’ve chosen. So one of the books will be from the […]

Posted February 18, 2020 by Emma in 2020 books, Bookish Post, Fantasy Feb, Most Anticipated, TBR, UKYA, YA / 4 Comments

Hello my bookish friends, I’m on half term! Yay! I’m so looking forward to catching up on my reading – especially a book that I’ve been reading for 2 weeks. I know, it’s crazy how work has been that I’ve just been too tired too read. So I want to read a few books off my TBR that I’ve received over the last couple of weeks. It’s just nice having a break and not worrying about work. Reading and Relaxing is what I need right now and I can’t wait! So today I thought I would showcase some of the […]

Harry Potter Book Night | My Harry Potter Journey

Posted February 6, 2020 by Emma in Bookish Post, Discussion Post, Harry Potter / 1 Comment

Hello my Wizarding friends. So today is Harry Potter Book Night! I did my event at work yesterday – here’s me in my full Ravenclaw gear! It’s was an exhausting event to host but I honestly love sharing the magic of Harry Potter with my students! As it’s Harry Potter themed I thought I’d would talk about Harry Potter and had grown as an adult. Happee Birthdae Emma! I got the first book on my 7th birthday from my aunt! So that’s 18 years ago! I read it and guess how long it to me! A year! 😂 I was […]

Morning my fellow bookworms. Today I bring to you a a potentially new feature for the blog. I was thinking about this post at Christmas time when I was taking a break from everything. Our mental health is key. We need to look after ourselves especially us as bookworms. We have day-to-day jobs, and reading is our relaxation but sometimes we need to be relaxed first to enjoy our books. So this post is tips from one bookworm to another that we need our own self-care routine. Welcome to Self-Care for Bookworms! Tip #1 – Take a Break A week […]

Revamped Feature | Let’s Talk YA #1

Posted January 17, 2020 by Emma in Bookish Post, Let's Talk Books / 1 Comment

Hello my Bookish Friends. It’s Friday! Yay! What better way to kick off than with a old feature but revamped for 2020. Let’s Talk YA started with my co-host Emily from A Short Book Lover. It’s all about talking books rather than just liking and Retweeting posts. So today I’m kicking it off again and this time it will be about any book we’ve ever loved. It could be an old favourite. A forgotten book and not just UKYA. We are mixing it up. So this will be a weekly feature unless I have something else planned. So welcome to […]

DISCUSSION | How to track your Reading

Posted January 13, 2020 by Emma in Bookish Post, Discussion Post / 8 Comments

Morning my lovely readers. Hope you had a wonderful weekend. I think we all needed after our first week back to work. Last year on Twitter, I hosted loads of polls about reading and blogging and one them is about how people track their reading. I was really intrigued to be honest, there isn’t just Goodreads which is what I ultimately use to be honest there is so much more. So today I thought I would draw together all the ideas in this post and also talk about how I’m going to track my reading for 2020. Tracking your Reading […]

Hello my bookish friends, I’m SO EXCITED to introduce to you my first new feature of 2020 hitting my blog. At the beginning of each year we all do our anticipated reads of 2020.

Welcome to Seasonal Reads – Winter. My top releases for January – March! A […]

December Monthly Wrap-Up | Final wrap-up post of 2019

Posted January 1, 2020 by Emma in 2019 Books, Bookish Post, Monthly Wrap-Up Post, Wrap-Up / 1 Comment

HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE! Today is officially the 1st day of 2020, and 2019 is now last year even though it was only yesterday. Crazy. Whilst I thought I would go right ahead and do my anticipated reads and reading goals, I thought I would wrap-up last year officially with my last wrap up post of 2019. December was a brilliant month, full of festivities at work and at home and then finally spend Christmas with my family. The beginning of the month was very chaotic, as you can probably imagine in all working environments. In a school it’s almost […]
