Off Tangent Thoughts… when someone interrupts my reading
Good morning bookworms! Today we are doing another Off Tangent Thoughts (OTT) which was created by Charvi @ Not Just Fiction. This fortnight’s topic is thoughts I have when someone interrupts my reading. I need to start this one with a disclaimer… 99% of the time my reading is interrupted it’s my husband.

Off Tangent Thoughts… while writing book reviews
Good morning bookworms! Sorry I’m late!! I spent all day yesterday finishing the secret beta read, and messaging with the authors, and stayed up way too late! Then this morning I slept in, and woke up in time to watch NY Excelsior (my babies – yes, I picked them because Gansey’s catchphrase is ‘Excelsior’) get beaten by Vancouver in the…

Not so crash hot…
So I haven’t been feeling particularly well over the last couple of weeks. I think I hide it pretty well at work, but the last week in particular has been a bit hard. I’ve worked from home for an afternoon and we were off-site one day anyway. I had my latest treatment at the hospital on Friday morning. My doctor…

It’s a cat life…
So, partner and I have three (yes, you saw that right, THREE) cats. I’m going to introduce them now because it is likely that I will talk about them lots. They have real names, but that’s not what we refer to them as. We call them The Cat, The Kitten, and The Fluffy. The Cat So this one is our…
