Stoptober TBR

It’s been about a month since I started my new job and I’ve gotten settled into my commute – 50 minutes each way on a train makes for great reading time. It’s also Stoptober here in the UK – a campaign to get people to stop smoking. I don’t smoke, but my book-buying habits have …

My Next Book Diet

It’s time for me to tell you guys the truth... I’m a book addict. There. I said it. Phew! I feel so much better – it’s the first step to getting better. Right? Wrong. I don’t want to get better. I love books and will always love books. I will likely bore people about books …

I’m going to say it ... Are you ready? Are you sure? IT’S CHRIIIISSSTTTMMMASSSSS!!!! The month of drinking too much mulled wine; walking past garishly decorated shops; classic Christmas tunes that get annoying after the 10th time you listen to them; drowning in wrapping paper and ribbons; AND … a few days off to read!Christmas …

October Wrap up and November TBR

Right – so this is my first ‘wrap up’ and I’m a little bit scared of calculating the number of pages I've read. I’m a pretty competitive person and I can tell I’m going to want to beat mine (and everyone else’s, for that matter) page count each time, which will (obviously) lead to a …
