January Wrap Up | 2020

January Wrap Up | 2020

Hey, guys and welcome to my January wrap up! I only read 1 book this month. I’m hoping to really tackle my humungous TBR over the next couple of months so fingers crossed I actually manage to get to some of the novels that have been sat on my shelf for a while.

Anyway, let’s get on with the wrap-up! …

January Book Haul | 2020

January Book Haul | 2020

I can’t believe that the last book haul that I did was March 2019. If that isn’t proof that last year wasn’t my year, then I really don’t know what is. However, I’m hoping that 2020 is the year that I get back into blogging.

So, what’s a better way to finish off the first month than to do a book haul?

I’ve included the synopsis for all of the books that I’ve hauled this month, including sequels, so if you’re not one for reading the blurbs (especially for sequels), then at least you can enjoy the pictures!

February Releases I’m Excited For | 2020

February Releases I’m Excited For | 2020

Hello, there! Welcome to another post where I share all of the monthly releases that I’m excited for. I would normally split these posts into two sections: those that I have pre-ordered and the ones that I haven’t.

HOWEVER.

This year, I will not be pre-ordering any books, unless they are special editions. It’s an attempt to curb my spending!

Disclaimer: all of the release dates shown here are taken from Amazon.co.uk …

Things I Wish Book Boxes Would Change | Discussion

Things I Wish Book Boxes Would Change | Discussion

Listen, we all love book subscription boxes. They’re like getting a birthday present every month and you get loads of brilliant surprises plus an amazing book for a reasonable(ish) price.

HOWEVER.

I do have my problems with them. For those regular readers of my blog, you will know that I only subscribe to one subscription box, and I get it every month. But, this post isn’t just me spilling the tea on this particular box, it’s boxes in general.

I also know that because I get a box every month, there’s bound to be repetition because companies have to cater for people who want to get one-off boxes,

But, like I said before, this post is talking about book subscription boxes as a whole! …

The ABC Book Challenge: ‘C’

The ABC Book Challenge: ‘C’

I’ve been seeing this book challenge on loads of different blogs, but I’ve just never gotten around to starting it. But here we are! Finally!

The rules are simple. Each week you pick your most memorable reads and books from your TBR that start with that weeks letter. I can’t seem to find where this book tag originated from, so if anyone has any idea, just let me know.

Anyway, let’s get on with the tag. This week, I’m going to be talking about the books that start with the letter ‘C’. …

20 Backlog Books I Want to Read in 2020

20 Backlog Books I Want to Read in 2020

Throughout my years of reading and blogging, I have set myself many goals. Whether they are to read a certain amount of books in a year or to finish a series… And here we are again. A new year means setting myself a goal that I probably won’t complete (but hey, it’s nice to think you might, right?)

I’m hoping that 2020 is the year where I finally read the books that I have been on my TBR for WAY TOO LONG. I mean, c’mon! I still haven’t read Six of Crows or Illuminae. Yes, I know I’m missing out. But like I’ve said, I’m hoping that 2020 is the year where I get around to reading them, and I’ll finally be able to understand the references that you all put on Twitter to some of these series! …
