Memo Pad: April Wrap Up

Another month. I feel like I'm maybe the only person in the world that feels like time is going quickly right now! I can't actually remember much of what I did in April! I know I got feedback and started another round of revisions on my YA scifi story. I've also done a lot of… Continue reading Memo Pad: April Wrap Up

Memo Pad: November Wrap Up

Another month down and it's nearly the end of the year. It feels so strange to say that when it's still sunny outside here. I can't actually believe I'm ending 2019 having moved to my dream home. But we're  at the end of the year yet so back to this month. I didn't officially take… Continue reading Memo Pad: November Wrap Up

Memo Pad: April Wrap-up

I know I keep saying that this ridiculous run I'm on with my reading challenge is going to end soon but this month has been another scarily awesome month for books. Not only did I read the eight books I've been averaging a month so far this year but I actually ended up reading….13? Granted… Continue reading Memo Pad: April Wrap-up

Memo Pad: October Book Wrap Up

Phew. It's been such a busy month for me! And I cannot believe it's almost Christmas already. I am not prepared. Somebody press pause, please! Probably the biggest thing that happened this month is that I got diagnosed as autistic. I've discovered so much out about myself and I still am finding and figuring out… Continue reading Memo Pad: October Book Wrap Up

Memo Pad: May Books Wrap up

Another month is over and apparently it's almost summer but it still feels like this year has only just started and oh god somebody turn the time off please!! Ummm, anyway. I had a much better reading month this month after a couple of dodgy ones so I'm very happy. It started with the awesome Baker… Continue reading Memo Pad: May Books Wrap up

Memo Pad: April Book Wrap Up

This has been my worst reading month in a very long time. I only managed to complete three books, two of which were novellas. I did however beta read a book for a writer friend of mine that I can't really add to my tally. So it's not quite as bad as it feels. Most… Continue reading Memo Pad: April Book Wrap Up

Memo Pad: February Book Wrap-up

Another month down and another lot of books read. 5 this month, to be precise. I set myself the goal last month of finishing the Starship's Mage series this month which was the final three books. And I'm happy to say I managed it and they were amazing! Seriously, one of the best series I've… Continue reading Memo Pad: February Book Wrap-up

Memo Pad: January Book Wrap Up

Another Bookish month has passed for me to tell you about! Has anyone gotten used to writing 2018 yet? I'm still getting it wrong. I'm still right smack bang in the middle of my kindle unlimited 3 month trial which means the only books I've read this month (and will be reading next month) are… Continue reading Memo Pad: January Book Wrap Up

Top Ten Best Books of 2017

The title is pretty self explanatory, no? Here is a list of the ten best books I read last year and also a little info about my reading year in general. Read: 64 DNF: 7? I think (I really should keep better track of which books I've DNF'd but I don't count then in my… Continue reading Top Ten Best Books of 2017

Memo Pad: November Books

This was a bit of a weird reading month for me. I previously mentioned I didn't want to read any fantasy books as it confuses me when I'm writing the same genre as I'm reading. And seeing as I am writing a fantasy for nanowrimo that was out. I had quite a few contemporary books… Continue reading Memo Pad: November Books
