Hello, and welcome to my last post of the year! This is also the blog post that will hopefully bring me back to blogging more often in 2025. I read 76 books this year. My original goal was to reach 80 books, but in November, I adjusted my Goodreads goal to 75 because it became … More My favourite books of 2024
It’s 18 degrees on my walk home from work, and the air is a bit colder than last week, though it’s still very sunny. Yellow and brown leaves are flying around, starting to cover the pavement, and I can feel the excitement that comes with the ending of one season and the start of another. … More Summer re-cap and favourite books
Do you ever blink and realise two whole months have gone by? I haven’t posted anything on this blog since May 1st. My break from blogging was an unconscious choice. We bought a house and had to move during May, and in June, I went to Edinburgh to see the Eras Tour, and then I … More A quiet life, slow living and cosy books
I blinked for a second, and now it’s another month that has gone by! In March, I went back to Spain for a minor nose surgery, and I stayed with my parents for a week while I recovered. I returned to rainy England in time to see the Spring blooming. We’re already three months into … More March 2024 book wrap up
How is it possible that my mind is still in 2023 time, but somehow, we’re already two months into 2024? How does this make sense? It’s March 1st while I’m finishing this post, and even with an extra day in February, this year is going by really fast, but I’m excited for spring. I can … More February 2024 book wrap up
Welcome to my first book wrap-up of 2024! One of my resolutions this year is to write a wrap each month for the next 12 months, which I’ve never been able to do because I get tired or run out of time at the end of the month, and I always end up skipping some months. … More January 2024 book wrap up
This year, I read 84 books, my original goal was 85, but I didn’t make it to the finish line. Goodreads says that I’ve read 29,055 pages, so yay! My average book length was 345 pages, with A Court of Wings and Ruin being my longest book, with 703 pages. … More My favourite 23 books of 2023
It’s incredible to think that September is already over. I’m currently in Spain, visiting my family for a while and staying at my parents’ house. I’ve gone from the gloomy and rainy cold weather in England to the hot and sunny Spain. If you’ve been on this blog before, then you’ll know I prefer the … More September 2023 book wrap up
I’m celebrating in my head because we’re so close to autumn. I can already feel it; the air is getting colder, some leaves are turning, and I’m starting to see Halloween products in some shops. But with the summer ending, one of my favourite shows ended too. Nancy Drew ended too soon, leaving me sad … More August 2023 book wrap up
July has been my most productive reading month this year so far, I read nine books, and I think it’s primarily thanks to the weather. While most of the world was going through record-breaking heatwaves, in England, we’ve had 31 days of non-stop rain and cold wind. With this autumnal atmosphere, I’ve spent most of … More July 2023 book wrap up
