SEPTEMBER WRAP-UP & OCTOBER TBR

Posted October 3, 2018 by Emma in Monthly Wrap-Up Post, Random Post, TBR / 2 Comments

Hi Everyone, How has your September been? Mine has been manic and the fact that it’s already October has passed me by completely. Where does the time go? I mean we are counting down to Christmas already in shops…. Oh god that means I need to start thinking about presents. Who leaves it to the last minute? With the start of September came the start of term at work, it’s never been busier, additional roles to my job has been interesting but also exciting. That also comes with hardly no reading. I read a grand total of 1 book and […]

AUGUST WRAP-UP & SEPTEMBER TBR

Posted September 1, 2018 by Emma in Monthly Wrap-Up Post, TBR / 5 Comments

Hi Everyone, it’s that time of the month for the wrap-up post but that also mean it’s the end of my summer holidays. At the beginning of the holidays I was thinking ‘what am I going to do with myself?’ as I love my job and I missed the library. But now that the time has gone, I’ve had a gorgeous holiday in Cornwall, I’ve been reading quite a lot, (although the TBR hasn’t really gone down) lots of blog tours, celebration of kindness both on the blog and off . I feel that having this time off does lead […]

JULY WRAP-UP & AUGUST TBR

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

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. I’ve been relaxing – this heatwave seriously hasn’t helped with sleeping as we all know and just enjoying the time off. Next week I am off on holiday to Cornwall for a whole week so I can’t wait – although swimming in the see will be interesting as there was a shark […]

PERSONAL POST – MY SUMMER READING

Posted July 24, 2018 by Emma in Random Post, Summer Reading, TBR / 1 Comment

So working in a school means holidays and the big one the summer break – 6 whole weeks. Even though I am a librarian, reading should be second nature to me. But I honestly don’t have the time after work which is frustrating. I see all my students reading all the time and I actually feel quite jealous as I want to be like that again. So these 6 weeks can’t come quick enough. What I plan to do is read, relax and read some more. So this is my TBR pile that’s been growing since Easter break and I […]

JUNE WRAP-UP & JULY TBR

Posted July 4, 2018 by Emma in Monthly Wrap-Up Post, TBR / 1 Comment

Hi Everyone, it’s been somewhat glorious weather in the UK although far too hot for my liking. You will find me in the shade reading or in front of a fan. Although I am craving some beach action right about now with this sunshine. July is here and for me and many others in schools it’s the end of the school year and starting to think about summer holidays and finally relaxing. I can’t wait. I’ve got so many books to read and the pile is getting bigger and bigger these days but with a month and half off I […]

📚MAY WRAP -UP & JUNE TBR

Posted June 4, 2018 by Emma in Monthly Wrap-Up Post, TBR / 0 Comments

Hi Everyone, I thought I would try and do a wrap up monthly post no matter what I’ve read. This month has been pretty steady with my reading. Although work is still really busy I’m really pleased with what I’ve read. I actually stuck with my TBR apart from one book which I think is progress don’t you think. I read 3 of most anticipated this month and reviewed last week during my week off from work which was nice to really catch-up on things without the pressure of work and getting enough sleep etc. I was […]

📚APRIL WRAP UP & MAY TBR

Posted May 2, 2018 by Emma in Blog, TBR, Wrap-Up / 2 Comments

Hi Everyone, I thought I would try and do a wrap up monthly post no matter what I’ve read. So not a lot has happened on the blog this month in comparison to last month. Personally a lot has happened, I’ve had Easter holidays and going away to the lovely St Ives in Cornwall, I was reading and relaxing on the beach or in my reading chair on holiday and which took me away from a lot of my blog. Another highlight of the month was going to YAShot in Uxbridge meeting so many of my […]
