All the Rage by Courtney Summers
I was perusing my library one afternoon when I came across this book sitting on one of the shelves. I had never heard about it before, but after reading the book, I was instantly intrigued.
August Wrap Up | 2018
Hey, guys and welcome to my August wrap up! I tried to read as many books this month as I did last month, and I think I did alright, to be honest. Being on holiday for 9 days helped a lot though because it meant that I had a lot of time to relax by the pool and just read.
Anyway, let’s get on with the wrap-up! …
August Book Haul | 2018
I actually didn’t buy that many books this month! It’s a miracle! Most of these are pre-orders as well, so it’s not like I also went to the bookstore and spontaneously bought loads of book (but I did spontaneously buy a few! I couldn’t resist!)
Also, because I have to go back to university in September, I had to buy quite a few books for my courses. I’m studying science fiction and novel writing, but all of the books that I had to buy were for my science fiction class. I HAVE A LOT OF UNI BOOKS TO READ BEFORE I GO BACK AND IT’S SO STRESSFUL!
Anyway! Let’s get on with the haul… …
September Releases I’m Excited For | 2018
Hello, there! AND WELCOME TO ANOTHER MONTHS WORTH OF NEW RELEASES! I’ve pre-ordered most of these books and I can’t wait for them to arrive and then I can read them straight away. Who am I kidding? I’m not going to read them as soon as they arrive… I wish I could though. There’s quite a lot of amazing releases coming out in September and a lot of them are standalones as well which means I don’t have to commit myself TO YET ANOTHER series.
Disclaimer: all of the release dates shown here are taken from Amazon.co.uk …
Fairy Loot August Unboxing | 2018
Welcome back to ANOTHER Fairy Loot unboxing! If you don’t already know, I now also have a YouTube channel where I have also filmed an unboxing as well as writing this blog post. So, for this month the theme was ‘Mutinous Pirates’ and when the theme was announced last month, I knew EXACTLY what the book of the month was going to be – so I had to cancel my pre-order. But even though I knew what the book was going to be, I was still so excited to get a pirate themed box!
Let’s get on with the unboxing… …
YALC HAUL! | 2018
I’m actually writing this two weeks after YALC has finished… It took me so long to do this blog post, from taking the pictures, to including the links! Anyway, as the title suggests, this post shows you all of the things that I got whilst I was at YALC in London this year. I didn’t actually BUY a lot. Most of the things that you can see in this post are free things that I managed to pick up whilst I was there.
So without any further ado, let’s get on with the haul!
P.S I also have blog posts detailing what I did on each day at YALC! (Day one, day two, day three, and day four, and there’s also my review of YALC) …
Introducing… ‘Megan’s Corner’
If you’re a regular reader of my blog, then you’ll start to notice a few changes popping up. My sister, Megan has decided that she wants to contribute a little something to The Bibliophile Girl. …
My Thoughts on YALC | 2018
Wow, okay so YALC has just happened… It’s been nearly 2 weeks since I came back from YALC, and after seeing so much traffic for my daily YALC posts, I decided to write an opinions piece on it. I feel like this is such an important thing to do, because people need to raise awareness of the good things and the bad, so that the Showmasters can decide which things need improving for next year.
I do have a lot of thoughts on YALC, both positive and negative and I’m going to try and explain the negative as best as I can. Do remember, this year was my first year at YALC, so I don’t have anything to compare it to, other than what my friends have said. …
Leah on the Offbeat by Becky Albertalli
Ahhhh, I have been waiting for this book for so long! After reading (and loving) Simon vs. The Homo Sapiens Agenda, and watching the film (and loving that as well), I was eagerly awaiting to join my favourite group of fictional friends again and to see what they get up to.
July Book Haul | 2018
I actually didn’t buy that many books this month! It’s a miracle! Most of these are pre-orders as well, so it’s not like I also went to the bookstore and spontaneously bought loads of book as well.
HOWEVER!
I did also go to YALC at the end of July, and OBVIOUSLY, I bought some books whilst I was there. But, the YALC haul was so big that I didn’t want to include it in my normal book hauls, so I made a separate post which you can read here.
Anyway, let’s get on with my June book haul!
