Saturday Snippet: Transition

 

This is basically what's happening now ... especially with cherry trees.

Man they're pretty when they bloom, but the falling leaves are 😂😅

Booktober 2020 Finale

 

And FIN!

 

31 (and more!) books covered again this year, and I think we've done a pretty good job. 

Hopefully you found something that piqued your interest this month.

 

Until next time, Booktobers!

Booktober 2020

Hello everyone!

 

Just like last year I'll be bringing you something different this October. 

 

Well, different in the sense that it won't just be the two or three blog posts per week which I would normally do on a regular basis.

 

 

Booktober is back!

 

Every day from tomorrow on I'll be posting a blurb about a book I've read on this blog (and on my Instagram account), all the way through to the end of the month. That'll give you 30+ books to check out if you haven't already.

 

So on with the show, and happy Booktober!

Booktober Finale

ALRIGHT.

We made it! 31 days, 31 (and more) books, and Booktober is officially over for this year. I really enjoyed it, I thought it would be a kind of different take on the month and doing something new on the blog, so I may bring it back next year, but we'll see what happens honestly. It was definitely a nice break from the usual two massive blog posts per week, but I also kind of miss those, so I'll be happy to get back to them haha.

Happy All Saint's Day if you observe it wherever you are, and I'll see you all in my next blog post!

Booktober!

Hello everyone!

A slightly different post from me, and on an entirely different day.

I know, I'm really going for it, huh?

What I want to say is this: it's October. And this means BOOKTOBER.

Now hold up. There are many, many definitions out there on the world wide web about just what this is supposed to be. I've found a couple; in one, you have to read one book per day in October. In another, it's a month-long read-along in groups, and other cultural activities geared towards reading that bring the community together.

See what I mean?

Mostly it has to do with books, however.

So I'm doing Booktober, too!

What's it going to look like?

Every day, I'll be posting a book I've read onto my blog with a little blurb or a quote or something from the book itself to go with it. This means that by the end of the month, you'll have 31 (potentially 31+) books to check out if you haven't already read them!

Cool, huh?

Get your broomstick and tag along for the ride, then, and I can promise you heaps of interesting titles to sink your teeth into.

Happy Booktober!

Tome Thursday: White House

Hello everyone!

This Thursday's blog post will be a little bit different in the sense that I'm not going to be talking about one book only. The thing is, I could easily stretch this into two blog posts - and then two weeks of course - but there isn't that much to discuss in terms of both plotline and the wow factor (though there IS plenty of both, still) for that.

In any event, I decided to just throw both books of the double in here and see where the chips fall.

I had encountered Katy Evans before, way before, when her book Real somehow landed in my hands, and I sort of liked her writing style back then. I went ahead afterwards and continued with Mine and Remy, although later, while waiting for the fourth in this series, it sort of fell off my radar and I kind of forgot about it.

Until a very random day a week (or two, no more than that) ago when her name popped up again, this time in connection with a different book altogether.

So, ladies and gentlemen, allow me to present Mr. President and Commander-in-Chief, of the White House series.

Tome Thursday: Bewitching Winter

Hello everyone!

As I settle back into my usual routine and work on blog posts, I swear I keep getting distracted by all that I come across. It can be another book, a TV show, a movie, you name it, I'll probably turn all ADD and go OH LOOK!

This is what happened to me today, as I continue on with the After Cilmeri series and I can't seem to put the first proper book of it down. I mean, I get it, it's time travel, it's Wales in the Middle Ages which is another one of those tempting things, but I'll also admit the book has flaws, so why did I have to literally pry myself away from it to write this post?!

Who knows.

It's the same with Agatha Christie's Marple series - the show had to switch actresses halfway through and the new one isn't quite the same as the original, and yet I find myself rolling around the bed laughing like an idiot each episode I watch.

But I thoroughly digress. This blog post is about a book - continuing with Serenity Woods again, it's the third in her Four Seasons saga, Bewitching Winter.
