Memo Pad: Holiday Books

So last week I shared my holiday TBR with you. It had eight books on it and I knew I'd never read that many but I was hoping to read six of them while I was away. That didn't happen as I got sick halfway through my holiday and my brain basically died so I… Continue reading Memo Pad: Holiday Books

Pre-Holiday Haul

There's nothing like a holiday to burn a hole in my bank account and I'm not even talking about the actual holiday or the travel insurance that I had to renew.

Memo Pad: Holiday Books Edition

I read a lot on holiday. Which was awesome! Until I got back and realised I had to write five reviews in a week. Technically, and if you follow me on Twitter you'll know this, I started reading Blue Lily, Lily Blue before I left. In fact I read half of it. So I read… Continue reading Memo Pad: Holiday Books Edition

Also, and more importantly, I went on… Continue reading Memo Pad: Book Reviews April (#1)

Away oh oh oh Away From Here

I am not here, sat at my computer typing this. No, I am on holiday (wooooo!). Hopefully right now I am lying in the sun relaxing. Maybe I'm reading one of the many books I have loaded on my kindle for this very occasion (more on these later) or maybe I'm listening to some nice… Continue reading Away oh oh oh Away From Here
