So far this year I have read five books. Three of these were on Kindle (Below Zero, Amy & Roger’s Epic Detour and Reminders of Him), one was a physical book (The Lost Tide Warriors) and one an audiobook (The Office BFFs). According to Goodreads, I am ‘on track’! My favourite book so far is… Continue reading Reading Round Up
Book 1 of 2023: Amy & Roger's Epic Detour by Morgan Matson. Although I love writing and I love reading, I do not really enjoy writing book reviews. I think I find it difficult to convey my thoughts about a book without spoiling it and I tend to only want to write about the books… Continue reading Tiny Book Review
It has been an odd year for reading for me. My usual goal of reading 50 books - which I have managed for the past two years - is almost certainly out of reach. However, after months of not reading very much at all, I am looking forward to enjoying some books that befit this… Continue reading October Reading
For the third year in a row, I met my goal of reading 50 books in a year. These are the five best ones of the year for me: The first book that I want to tell you about is a book called The Storm Keeper’s Island. It is written by Irish writer Catherine Doyle… Continue reading Five Good Books
Last year, I set myself the usual challenge to read 50 books. Since I managed to do this in 2019, I was determined to keep the streak going and I did! I enjoyed a wide range of books. I re-read some books - the most in a year I think (Big Magic by Elizabeth Gilbert,… Continue reading Reading a book (or fifty)
We are just over a quarter of the way through the year and I have read 15 books which I am pretty happy about. According to Goodreads.com, I am one book ahead of schedule and I have read a fair variety of books including these two which have become new favourites: Fahrenheit 451 by Ray… Continue reading 50 Book Challenge Update
2017 was yet another year in which I did not manage to reach my long-wanted goal of reading 50 books in a year. I did manage to reach a personal best of 42 books though so I am pretty pleased with this and I am as determined as ever to reach my goal (still aiming… Continue reading 2018 Reading Challenge
It has been such a long time since I have written book reviews for the books I am reading - I used to review every single book. I stopped because (amongst other things) I didn't really enjoy writing about a book straight after reading it. Either the books I read were powerful, in which case… Continue reading Favourite Reads of 2017
Despite a valiant last push at the end of 2016, I (YET AGAIN!) did not manage to reach my goal of 50 books in a year. I did manage to equal my personal best of 41 books so I'm pretty pleased about that because despite what some people might think, reading on maternity leave is… Continue reading 2017 Reading Challenge
For the third year running, I've set myself the challenge of reading 50 books in a year. I have year to manage it, falling 9 or 10 books short but I'm determined! Right now, I'm reading 4 books: To Kill a Mockingbird (Harper Lee) – a re-read so I can read Go Set a… Continue reading Currently Reading
