My First Impressions of the Huawei P20 Pro

My First Impressions of the Huawei P20 Pro

Last month, I bought the Huawei P20 Pro smartphone. I have bought Apple iPhones since the iPhone 3G was released in 2008, so suddenly changing to an Android system was actually quite scary because I didn’t know it. I didn’t know how reliable it was or if I was going to like the layout. I was quite lucky that my best friend has this exact phone, so I was somewhat similar to how the phone works.

I thought that I would write a very brief, bullet-pointed review of the phone and how I have found it over the past month. …

Q&A with Brendan Reichs

Q&A with Brendan Reichs

For those of you who are regular visitors of my blog and regular viewers of my BookTube channel, you will know that I am OBSESSED with Brendan Reichs’ books: Nemesis, and the sequel, Genesis.

Maybe i just need to read loads of manga and graphic novels to catch up?  …

My Book Inventory

My Book Inventory

I’ve been meaning to create a book inventory for a couple of years now. It was getting to the point where I had so many books that I didn’t know which ones I owned and which ones I WANTED to own. I would buy a book from Amazon/Waterstones, I would get home and find out that I already owned it. OR I WOULDN’T buy a book because I thought that I owned it, get home and find out that I didn’t actually own it. So yeah… a book inventory seemed like the perfect thing for me to make. So I opened up Excel and started creating it. It took A VERY VERY VERY long time and it’s going to be an ongoing project as I acquire new books over the months and years, but at least I’ve laid down the foundations! …
