Hello, and welcome back to what feels like the longest series I have planned and written for this blog. I can't even remember when I started it, but as I said last time, we are on the final stretch! It is time for instalment 8 on the Top 100 YA books according to Goodreads and… Continue reading GR: How Many Top 100 YA Books Have I Read? #8

November Wrap Up – In Which History Takes Over!
"History is just one damned thing after another" is definitely how I'll describe my November reading because I have read nothing but The Chronicles of St Mary's all month, and you know what, I've loved it! What's not to love? I've reread a favourite series and these disaster magnets called historians who research historical events… Continue reading November Wrap Up – In Which History Takes Over!
The Fantasy Tropes Readathon Roundup
A little before September @SifaElizabethReads announced her plans for a Fantasy Tropes Readathon, a fantastic challenge to read all the unread fantasy that had accumulated on her and our shelves. Although I have previously vowed to avoid all challenges and readathons, I wanted to participate in this one as it was right up my street.… Continue reading The Fantasy Tropes Readathon Roundup
Pumpkin Spice Latte Book Tag
Hello! Not long ago, I was tagged to do the Pumpkin Spice Latte book tag by Laura @TheBookCorps and I couldn't resist joining in. I confess I'm not that big on seasonal drinks, just give me a normal hot chocolate on any day of the week, but they do commercially signify the changing seasons and… Continue reading Pumpkin Spice Latte Book Tag
GR – How Many Top 100 YA Books Have I Read? Part 7
Oooh, the countdown is reaching its conclusion and I'm getting excited to see what books will pop up over these last few posts!

Of course that is likely to continue… Continue reading GR – How Many Top 100 YA Books Have I Read? Part 7
WDAS Life Lessons – Fantasia
Today's Life Lesson from the Walt Disney Animated Studios comes from a film with little to no dialogue. It has no well-meaning quotes. It is purely music and animation. However, that doesn't mean there aren't any lessons to be had. The most important piece of music and segment from Fantasia has and will always be… Continue reading WDAS Life Lessons – Fantasia
Book & Reading Bullet Journal
If you are a sane bibliophile who likes bullet journalling, you stick to one journal a year. Maybe two, if it is only big enough for six months at a time. You are not like me then if you decide to completely scrap your current journal, which is set up for a full year, and… Continue reading Book & Reading Bullet Journal
A Month Dedicated to Norse Mythology
I nearly didn't sit down to write an October Wrap Up post because with only two books read, It didn't seem worth it. However those two books have all centred around one theme, one subject and one I've wanted to know more about for a while - Norse Mythology. I suppose I have Disney's acquisition… Continue reading A Month Dedicated to Norse Mythology
My Halloween Plans
I am not a Halloween person usually but when it comes to this particular day, most of my daily activities are Halloween related. And because it has landed on a Thursday, I have more time to do these as it is one of my free days! These plans probably won't be done in this order,… Continue reading My Halloween Plans
Three Books I Should Have Read Last Year
I'm going off the #blogtober prompts again made by Library Looter and Anniek's Library and this particular one is dedicated to three books we should have read last year but didn't. I'm really bad at making sure I read the books on my yearly TBR so honestly, I have a million and one books that… Continue reading Three Books I Should Have Read Last Year
