Top 5 thicc books
Hello friends!! Welcome to Top 5 Tuesday!! This week’s topic is top 5 thicc books!! This week we’re celebrating the big books that (maybe) took an age to read.

Top 5 anticipated reads for Oct-Dec 2022
Hello friends!! Welcome to Top 5 Tuesday!! This week’s topic is top 5 anticipated reads for Oct-Dec 2022! Not sure about you all, but I am moderately terrified that we’re in the last quarter of 2022.

May-June 2021 wrap up
Hello bookworms!! It’s time for the May-June 2021 wrap up. Hahahaha, honestly, I would not even be surprised if you think I’ve incorrectly titled this post. Because it is many, many months late. After May’s epic organisation (which lasted for a whole two weeks), we’re back to being super late with everything… And I do mean SUPER late. To be…

March 2021 wrap up
Hello bookworms!! It’s time for the March 2021 wrap up. Which was basically forever ago because April has been a TIME. Is it just me, or is 2021 shaping up to be somehow worse than 2020?? Just like in February, I can’t seem to stay on top of things. Except where I was failing at everything except two things before,…

March 2021 TBR
Hello bookworms!! Welcome to the March 2021 TBR post. So… it’s been a hot minute since I’ve written a TBR. In fact, I believe the last one I did was in October last year.
