I want to be a Paperback Writer.
Wow. Even after hearing so many positive reviews for ‘Before the Coffee Gets Cold’ it still managed to excel my expectations. I absolutely loved it. To the point I am already thinking it could be one of my favourites this year (a bold statement for being only three months in!). I knew when I bought [...]
At the start of this week I had planned to make a lovely post about girls sticking together. After speaking to my girls on Valentine’s Day, I was in a very supportive and loving mood. There really is no better feeling than the encouragement you can gain from people who support you no matter what. [...]
As I was making my way through the 693 pages entailing Herbert's final installation of the David Ash series, I had seriously mixed emotions about reviewing it. When I picked up Ash in the bookshop I did not realise it was part of a series. The spine is completely foiled, which caught my attention, and [...]
A list. I haven't made any resolutions as such for the new year, but a little while ago I did vow to stop apologising so much unnecessarily, and came up with a list. As a culture there's a lot of things I think we apologise for just out of politeness. This year I'd like to [...]
Hey everyone! It feels like it's been a while since I divulged a Netflix find with you all. There was a time when Netflix was a part of my daily routine, and it felt like I could never run out of content in that respect. But honestly there are not many programmes that can keep [...]

Walking through a foreign town where no one knows your nameFinding shops full of beautiful clutterArt and books and photosThe memories they replay for usCoffee anytime of the dayLoving your friends, forgiving your foes, and complimenting strangers Telling family [...]
A five star review.
How I find inspiration to write. Storytelling is an art that has been around since the dawn of time. It takes on different forms for different people. Most of us here love books or blogging, physical words on a page, but let's also consider there's music and film and photography and art and conversations with [...]
Hey! Long time, no book related blog post. Pretty shabby for a self-proclaimed bibliomaniac. But I can't wait to show you this book: 'Paperbacks from Hell' by Grady Hendrix. Originally I purchased this as a book to sit on the side and be dipped into every so often. While it's a beautiful book my expectation [...]
Part one here Part two here At the start of 2019 I felt very determined that this year I was going to do something all for myself. It can be frustrating at times when you feel like you're not moving, when things don't quite work how you wanted them to, but if there's something I've learnt it's [...]
