Happy Weekend my lovely readers. I hope you are staying as cool as possible. It’s mighty hot here in the UK isn’t it. Anyways, today I’m really excited to be part of the blog tour for Boy Queen by George Lester – his debut LGBTQ+ YA and I loved it!

But before that here is a little bit more info of this A-M-A-Z-I-N-G book! My Review I feel like I’m bringing out John Barrowman in this review. This […]

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 […]

Top Ten Tuesday Is A Weekly Meme Hosted By The Lovely Ladies At The Artsy Reader Girl! Each Week, A New Topic Is Put Into Place And Bloggers Share Their Top Ten Accordingly.

Happy Monday my lovely readers! I’m back, I kind of had a bit of a blogging break the last week as I just needed the time for me. I haven’t been reading very much these days and had no enthusiasm to blog. Today I’m ready to get back into the swing of blogging again. I’m bringing you a review of a kick-ass feminist fantasy novel. I loved it and the sequel is coming out next month. So I hope you enjoy it.

May Monthly Wrap-Up

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 […]
