Good morning bookworms! As we all may remember (and I sometimes forget), I signed up to, uhhh, a lot of challenges in 2019. What can I say? I have bookish FOMO. Unfortunately this bookish FOMO also results in me buying a lot of books. Which takes us back to the reason why we're here. I... Continue Reading →

Good morning bookworms! Just in case you haven't heard me scream about this previously, YA wasn't really a thing when I was growing up. You had board books for toddlers, picture books for children, then like this weird sort of tween stage (now lovingly referred to as middle grade) where you read 846 books from... Continue Reading →

Good morning bookworms! Today’s Top 5 Tuesday is top 5 books that exceeded my expectations... but, ahhh, if only I had read further down Shanah's list than just the topic for the 4th last week... If I had, then last week's post would have been... this week's post!! So, instead I'm kind of swapping them... Continue Reading →

Good morning bookworms! Today’s Top 5 Tuesday is top 5 books that weren't what I expected (in a good way). Plus, as an UNEXPECTED bonus (see what I did there?!) you're also getting last week's anticipated books for 2020 because I had drafted it, and forgot to schedule it. Top 5 Tuesday is hosted by...

Good morning bookworms! It's time for the monthly wrap-up for January! During January I read 9 books. Which was totally fine, unless you look at my reading pattern, which was kind of a joke!! (Week 1: nothing, week 2: 7 ebooks, week 3: 1 audiobook, week 4: nothing, last 4 days of month: 1 physical... Continue Reading →
Good morning bookworms, and thanks for still being here!! I am back from hiatus and have decided that I might just ease up on myself this year and post a couple of times per week instead of every day. That will likely make some of my goals from last month unachievable, but it's about putting... Continue Reading →
Good morning bookworms! No... you're not crazy. I am on the second day of a hiatus, and this is my second post since the announcement. However, I had mostly written this, as I didn't post a WWW Wednesday on 8 January, so you're getting this anyway. (I am FICKLE.) WWW Wednesday is a weekly meme... Continue Reading →

Good afternoon bookworms This is just a very small post to say that ... well, I'm tired! I had all of these grand plans to start 2020 off with a bang, but between the crazy insane hot weather here, the threat of bushfires, and the smoke, I'm feeling a bit stressed at the moment. On...

Good morning bookworms! Welcome to my rant post where I'll be discussing all the things I want to accomplish this year, while simultaneously whining about how I signed up for too many things last year, and oh yeah, I still haven't read a book yet in 2020.* As per 2019, I have signed up to...

Good afternoon bookworms! Ahhh... the dreaded annual wrap-up. I mean, it's not really "dreaded"... it just takes me ages to write and so I procrastinate it forever. Except, this year I was pretty good at keeping my spreadsheets up to date, so *hopefully* this won't be as terrible as my brain is making it out... Continue Reading →
Good morning bookworms! Welcome to the 2019 challenge wrap-up! I'll have another post with all my 2020 challenges in together as well. Goodreads Read 120 of 90 books. While I did finish my challenge in October. I finished my secret challenge (of 100 books) in November! (I actually read 122 books this year but Goodreads... Continue Reading →

Good morning bookworms! It's time for the final monthly wrap-up for 2019, the December wrap-up! During December I read an excessive amount of books. For me. A grand total of 18 books, which is definitely my highest monthly total for the year!! This mostly had to do with Sam @ Fictionally Sam's Mrs Claus' Readathon,... Continue Reading →

Good morning bookworms, and HAPPY NEW YEAR!! I'm gonna be honest, it feels kind of weird being New Years at the moment. Our fireworks got canceled a week ago because of the total fire ban in place with all of our bushfires.* We've had friends be evacuated from their homes yesterday and a lot of... Continue Reading →
Good morning bookworms! Well, it's New Years Eve in Australia, so it's time to do an end of year thing. I'm not *quite* ready to do all my wrap-up posts because I plan on finishing at least one more book today (maybe even two!!), so instead I am pinching this tag from the lovely Destiny...
