Hi Everyone, I can’t believe its March, where has Febraury gone. (I beleive I keep saying this exact line but just changing the months every wrap-up post, ha!) It’s been a jam-packed month for me more at work and personally, so reading and blogging hasn’t been as much as I hoped. Fantasy Feb, didn’t quite go according to plan either, which I apolgise for. But the posts I did do I’m really pleased with and I seem to be enjoy my TTT these days. Today is a bit gloomy, but we had the lovely weather last week so this image […]

Posted December 1, 2018 by Emma in Featured, Monthly Wrap-Up Post, Most Anticipated, TBR / 1 Comment

Hi Everyone, I’ve been MIA lately, late October and all of November has been very busy at work. I’ve started a new position alongside my Librarian role which has taken up a lot of my work at the moment. I’m hoping December will be a different story as Christmas comes to work and it will feel a lot less busy and more festive and relaxed. This month I have been re-reading the Throne of Glass of series in anticipation of the Kingdom of Ash release. I started this series when it first came out and then stopped at Crown of […]

Hi Everyone, it’s the end of July already and I can’t believe it. The end of term finally came around and all I’ve done since is caught up on some reading – See my Summer Reading Post for more on what I hope to read these 6 weeks.

Best Books of 2017 & Books I’m most anticipating in 2018! HAPPY NEW YEAR, EVERYONE! It’s been a long time I admit – the last post on here was November but to be honest I don’t feel I’ve been around much at all lately. Reading has been sparse, I’m lucky to have read one book in two weeks, which too me is really bad, or I would pick a book up and put it back down again. It doesn’t mean I haven’t stopped buying books though – that’s kind of backwards thinking really. But 2018 is a new year and you know […]
