my new tbr jar series

Helllooooo everyone. If you've been a part of the book community for like, .2 seconds, especially on booktube, you may be familiar with the 'TBR Jar' trend. You rip up some paper with the names of books on your TBR, shove them in a jar, then take one or two out at the start of …

2019 | upcoming releases

When I started planning my 'New Year' posts, this honestly wasn't one I was considering. In the past two years, I've really stopped pre-ordering just because of money reasons, and new books [especially American releases] are EXPENSIVE. If I do buy new releases, they're generally UK releases, and even then the only author I avidly …

recommending poetry collections

As a fan of Jen Campbell's videos, I've found myself getting more and more into poetry the past three years.

Reading is about your emotional …

recommendations for boosting your end of year reading total

A DISCLAIMER: reading goals are what you make of them. No matter how many books you've read in a year, you've done good, and don't let anyone tell you otherwise. This year's end of year total for me is something I never thought I'd achieve, and I've only done so because I was either reading …

wrap up│autumn reading 2018

Yes, I haven't updated my reading since September. If you want to see my reading as I'm actually doing it, feel free to add me on Goodreads. Other than that, well... I have no excuses. I'm just lazy and make excuses to not blog. I'm aiming to get back on track in the next month …
