Hello my lovely readers, today I’m wrapping up the first month of 2024 and what a brilliant month it was. I read not one but TWO 5 stars reads already, I started my first YA book club and I have received lots of amazing ARCS from publishers that I’m so excited to read.
My ins for 2024 is to be myself, enjoy life and what I read and I have really tried to prioritise my well-being, switching off from work and doing what I love which is all bookish related. I’ve loved reading, blogging and bookstagramming.
So shall we get onto my wrap of January? I think so.

I did start Godkiller and I had every intention of completing 4 books but work did get in the way. I have set my goal of 52 books with 1 book a week ideally but I have got Feb half-term next week which I’m looking forward to reading loads of YA.
Book of the month
Oof, this is a hard one but I think the one that really impacted me has to Little Bang by Kelly McCaughrain.

This month see’s the start of my YA Book club and I am so excited. The book pick is Better than the Movies by Lynn Painter. So far the club are enjoying it. I plan to read it in my half term around Valentine’s Day!
SO THERE YOU HAVE IT, THAT’S MY JANUARY WRAP UP. HOPE YOU ENJOYED IT. TELL ME WHAT BOOK YOU ENJOYED IN JANUARY!?
Good evening bookworms. It’s May and finally the sun is shining here in the UK. Are we finally getting our spring weather? I really hope so, makes us feel so much better, I do love the warmer months. So this is my first wrap up of the year… it’s been a unusual start to the year with being quite unwell for half of it, work taking over my life and not really reading at all. But this April I have prioritised my well-being, my mental health and that in turn means I read loads more. Woohoo. May it continue… get […]
Happy August my friends! I can’t believe how quickly this year is going and I’m on my summer holidays so I know that it will fly by – it always does then we’ll be in September and talking about Christmas very soon. The last time I did a wrap up post it was April and I said I had the best reading month. Well I’ve beaten that and I’m so happy. I think with the horrible UK heatwave a few weeks ago, all I did was read as I was too hot to sleep. I would also say that this […]
Happy Weekend my lovely readers. It’s been a week since my last post – [Insert post] – it’s been quite a busy week at work and lots of travel disruptuon as well so I’ve been getting home pretty late and super tired. But I’m here today and that’s the main thing. Today I’m bringing you my first (oh dear) wrap up of the 2022! I can’t believe I haven’t done one but I think it’s largely down to not reading much at all and I felt it wasn’t worth it. As you can see from the title of my post […]
Hello my lovely readers, and we are now the third day into February. I can’t believe the first month of 2021 has already gone by, I think lockdown has made the first month weirdly long but not if that makes sense. It’s kind of passes us by. But what I loved about this month especially is that I set myself up some great reading goals and I can say that I have certainly accomplished them. This sets a strong precedence from the rest of the year. It’s giving me this positive mindset to reading that I’m absolutely loving. Last month […]
Hello my lovely bookworms, it’s been a while since my last monthly wrap up post. I think the reason being is because reading has been a struggle the last couple of months. Since my last monthly wrap up post I was saying how I wanted to read and not blog as I didn’t have the brain power or inspiration because of work. Now it’s the complete opposite, the last month has been more blogging and very little reading. But now I think I’ve conquered it back to both. I’m excited because if you are reading this then you may notice […]
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 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. In June I suffered the reading slump, which I hated immensely but July took a turn for the best and I got my reading mojo back. Yay! It’s another month, I always feel like it’s a do over of reading and choosing my books for the month. I love it. The middle of July also saw the beginning of my summer holidays as I work in a school. […]
Hey everyone, once again the classic phrase – I can’t believe it’s July already! Which means it’s another monthly wrap-up post. I think this month I’m super excited by the start of the month, I feel it’s like a do-over of June as it was a pretty terrible month both reading and also not as active on here as I hoped. All these plans at the beginning of last month literally went out the window. I couldn’t read until the very last few days of the month. It’s been a very long time since I’ve been in a reading slump […]
