2021

Happy New Year! 🎆 I say happy new year but it hasn't been great so far has it... Things can only get better though, right? I thought I'd take this time to look back on my goals for last year and think about this year. I've been a bit rubbish with blogging, I just didn't … Continue reading 2021 →

Chats: Lockdown Day 250

Hello! How are you all doing? I've been a bit awol recently in the world of blogging. I kinda got the fear to write a proper review and also life just seemed to take over with work etc! But hopefully I'm back now. Still not quite as it's so dark all the time up here … Continue reading Chats: Lockdown Day 250 →

Bookstagram Anniversary and 100th Post!

A year ago today I picked up this blog again after it being forgotten about for months and I decided that instead of following all these bookish accounts on my personal twitter/Instagram I would make accounts dedicated to it! This post also marks 100 on this blog so I thought I would take today to … Continue reading Bookstagram Anniversary and 100th Post! →

Lockdown Week 2

I had this written on Tuesday (7.04.20) but completely forgot to post it because I am an idiot! Week 2 of Lockdown has been better in some ways, I'm in a routine of sorts but also it is currently time I should be off work anyway due to holidays so I don't feel so bad … Continue reading Lockdown Week 2 →

March Round Up

So today marks the first week of the UK lockdown, it has been the strangest week. I had … Continue reading Lockdown Week 1 →
