An Update – Happy Sunday my lovely readers. It’s been a while hasn’t it?! I feel I’m here but not here these days and I’ll be honest I hate that. I need to get to the end of term and I will be back as I’m on summer holidays for 5 weeks. But until then I will try and post more as I have so much to update you on and I’m finally coming out of my reading slump. So that was a tiny update but today I’m excited to be part of The Write Reads – Ultimate Blog Tour for […]

It’s a new year my lovely readers. Be 2020 and welcome 2021! I’m writing this with Miss Congeniality on New Year’s Day and I reliving my Top Ten Books of 2020! Last year, wasn’t my finest year for reading. But I still read some amazing literature from Children’s to Adult. I felt last year I really read outside of my comfort zone, not too much but just enough to be comfortable in reading different genres. I read some fantastic middle grade books to fluffy, contemporary adult fiction. After each of my suggestion I will add a reason why it’s my favourite […]

Posted December 10, 2020 by Emma in 2020 books, Blog, Blog Tour, Book Review / 1 Comment

Hello my lovely readers. I’m so excited to be part of another #UltimateBlogTour for the one and only THE COUSINS by Karen M. McManus! Massive thanks to Dave and TheWriteReads who organises epic blog tours these days. I’m really excited to share my review not only am I trying to experiment with a review style, well I think it’s new, probably shorter and not much else. But I’m going to try CAWPILE created by Book Roast, (I’ll link the video here for you) for a new rating system. I’m not sure why it’s taken me so long to use this. […]

Mini Book Review | The Inheritance Games by Jennifer Lynn Barnes

Posted November 16, 2020 by Emma in 2020 books, Blog Tour, Book Review, YA / 1 Comment

Hello my lovely readers and welcome to my first review in months I think. Whoops. The last few months I’ve really struggled with the motivation to read, hence the lack of review posts. But this particular book that I’m writing my review for took me 3 weeks or so to read and a further month to review as I really did have a blogging break. But felt I really needed to review it. So before I go into my review I wanted to say that whilst it took me that long to read, it didn’t in any way effect my […]

Book Review | Five Little Liars by Amanda K. Morgan

Posted July 17, 2020 by Emma in 2020 books, Book Review / 2 Comments

Hello my lovely bookworms. It’s Friday!!!! It’s also officially the last day of term for the summer break for 6 weeks!! Yay! It will feel strange that’s for sure. Today’s book review is a book I’ve been talking about this book on social media and also in my recent posts as well. I can safely say that thrillers/mysteries really do get you out of a reading slump properly. It’s the thrill, you can’t get enough of it. My Review I went into this book having only the expectation of – ‘for fans of Karen McManus’. I loved her books, she […]

It’s Friday – What are you reading?

Posted July 10, 2020 by Emma in Blog / 0 Comments

It’s Friday my lovely bookworms. A couple of weeks ago I did this random post – It’s Friday, What are you reading? and it got a really good response and I really enjoyed it just talking about what I’m reading at the mo. So I thought I would do another one with a little weekly reading update too. I’m also finally back to to my reading, albeit a little slow than slower, I am enjoying it a lot! This Week’s Reading – I finished a wonderful Middle Grade book, Rooftoppers, which I reviewed this week that honestly opened my eyes […]

My Top 5 Favourite Books of 2020 so far – the year of sequels and debuts!

Hello my lovely readers, so it’s July, over half way throughout the year. It certainly hasn’t been a great start to 2020 with the current situation but that hasn’t stopped me from reading. If anything it’s what I needed, books to escape into away from this reality. I’ve read some amazing books and I’m not the quickest of readers so rather than list loads, I thought I would list my top 5 from the beginning of 2020. So let’s forget the world right now and focus on my favourite books of the year so far especially during Booked-In. Top 5 […]
