It’s March! Well, it has been for 8 days, it’s just that I’ve had laryngitis and have spent a week and a half curled up in a ball doing nothing and forgetting the world existed, so I’ve barely noticed time passing. Anyway, I’m back in the game now (croaky voice and all) and I’ve been… Continue reading February 2016 – My Reading Month in Review
While I may not have read as many books as I wanted to in 2015, I still read 78 of them, 26 of which I awarded 5 stars on Goodreads, so there were definitely some good books in my selection! I don’t think that I could viably rank these books, as I read some of… Continue reading 15 Books for 2015: The Books I Enjoyed the Most This Year
Behold, the mega list of all the books, plays, short stories and poems I read in 2015, complete with ratings. Not as long a list as last year – only 78 works on it – but not bad all the same. Same rules as always apply: re-reads do not count, all ratings are subject to… Continue reading What I Read This Year 2015 Edition
It is the end of January already (well, by the time this is up it’ll be the start of February, but same difference) and it’s about time I posted my monthly wrap-up! Firstly, I once again failed on my monthly TBR (surprise, surprise). Of the ten books, I finished four… exactly the same amount as… Continue reading My January 2015 Wrap-Up
I was very late to this party, considering that these incredibly popular middle grade books by Rick Riordan were released between 2005 and 2009 (when I was actually the intended audience age for them). Better late than never, and I have to say that when I picked up the first book back in September, I would… Continue reading ‘Percy Jackson and the Olympians’ by Rick Riordan: Series Wrap-Up
One thing I have never done before is a monthly wrap-up. I conclude each of my weeks with a small update, but I am yet to bunch all of the month’s reads together in a big wrap-up. Ideally, I would start this in the New Year, but if I can do it now, why not?… Continue reading My December 2014 Wrap-Up
The end of the year is upon us, and it is about time I faced the difficult decision as to which of the many books I have read this year is my favourite! If you have already read my most recent Top 5 Wednesday, you will already know how this list concludes, however I am… Continue reading My Top 14 Books of 2014
It is the end of 2014! I have posted my ‘Top 14 Books of 2014‘, so I feel it is about time that 2014 was put behind me and I wrapped up this fantastic reading year with a complete list of everything I have read this year and my rating of it. 2014 was the… Continue reading What I Read This Year
Hello All! I hope you all had a fab Christmas! The arrival of Christmas Day signalled the end of the 2014 CramAThon, the readathon hosted by WhittyNovels with the intention of reading as many short books as possible between the 20th and the 24th of December (inclusive).
