June Monthly Wrap-Up

Posted July 2, 2020 by Emma in 2020 books, Bookish Post, Monthly Wrap-Up Post, Wrap-Up, YA / 6 Comments

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 […]

May Monthly Wrap-Up

Posted June 3, 2020 by Emma in 2020 books, Bookish Post, Monthly Wrap-Up Post, Wrap-Up, YA / 0 Comments

Happy Wednesday my lovely readers. Once again another month has gone by. You would think in lockdown it would go slowly but if I’m honest it’s gone really fast. I think it’s getting into a routine that really helps, the world has suddenly become a weird sort of normal, wouldn’t you agree. But I have to say I am very excited at the prospect of my local Costa or Pret opening for takeaway this week, I have to say. I know, lockdown priorities. Once again, this month I hosted a readathon with Steph for Bookslovereaders and read 3 books during […]

April Monthly Wrap-up – I read more books edition!

Happy Friday my bookish friends. As I write this the brief sun of the day on Thursday is fading and it’s suddenly getting gloomy. But my blog hates gloomy – it loves colour so let’s forget about the rain for a minute. I missed my wrap-up post last month, I guess I got swamped with life in lockdown. But since then I’ve had a new blog series and my blog hasn’t seen so many visitors and views before and I’m really happy. I’ve also read over double the amount of books I usually read, and I’m stoked about that. Whilst […]

February Monthly Wrap-Up

Posted March 11, 2020 by Emma in 2020 books, Monthly Wrap-Up Post, Wrap-Up, YA / 0 Comments

Hello dear readers, we are in the second week into March and my wrap-up of February has been a bit slow, so apologies for that. I guess I got about it with all of the blog tours last week and then thinking ‘should I still do one’ but my twitter response was Yes! So here it is. I wanted to do one as last month I did my Fantasy February and I really enjoyed it. I did some different and new posts, a review or two and loads of author guest posts with my new author series, In the Mind […]

January Monthly Wrap-Up | Introducing Fantasy Feb

Hello my bookish friends! The first month of 2020 is over! How can that be!? It did go on for a while I have to say, but then the last week just went by so quickly. It’s been a really weird month, work has been crazy. I think I say that a lot. Haha. Start a new term and lots of big decisions lie ahead as well. Planning for World Book Day and Harry Potter Book Night, honestly it never stops. It was also a month of new year goals. Mine were to read and blog more. I’ve done one […]

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 […]

My Year in Books | Favourite Reads of 2019

Posted December 30, 2019 by Emma in 5 Stars, Bookish Post, UKYA, Wrap-Up, YA / 2 Comments

Hello Everyone, I’m back from my Christmas break yesterday and I had such an an amazing time with my family. It was also more like a Christmas Reading Retreat too. I read 3 books in 5 days which is a first in a very long time. 2 of which are Harry Potter books and another a hotly anticipated 2020 release. It was so nice being totally away from my social media and blog for 5 straight days that I feel amazing in myself and ready to plan 2020 with lots more books and lots more blog posts – I think […]

October Monthly Wrap-Up

Posted November 6, 2019 by Emma in Monthly Wrap-Up Post, Wrap-Up / 0 Comments

Hello my bookish friends. It’s been a while since I’ve done a monthly wrap-up or in fact updated you on books, blog life in general so here I am. 🧡 The last few months have been crazy busy, ever since term has started it’s been non-stop. I went on holiday down the coast during the half term, much needed that was. The first term is always the longest and hardest so just relaxing, exploring and being a tourist is a nice change, I felt refreshed and ready to face the real world again. Before holiday I was having some serious […]

MONTHLY WRAP-UP: JULY & AUGUST TBR

Posted August 2, 2019 by Emma in Bookish Post, Monthly Wrap-Up Post, Summer Reading, TBR, Wrap-Up, YA / 5 Comments

Hello Book Friends. It’s been 2 months since my last wrap-up post. Work has been manic, but August is finally here, how has everyone faired with the heat last week, unbearable wasn’t it. I was reading to pretty early each morning because of it. I’m on my summer holidays and I’m on holiday tomorrow. Yay! So I’m now trying to figure out what books I want to take away with me. That always takes more time than the actual packing. I feel my absence has got noticed because of work, so I’m trying to catch up on reviews and posts […]
