The Friday 56 is a weekly blog meme hosted by Freda’s Voice. The idea is to share an excerpt from a book you’ve been reading every Friday, to promote the book or simply just to showcase your current read! Rules: *Grab a book, any book. *Turn to page 56 or 56% in your eReader (If you… Continue reading The Friday 56: The Caged Queen
Top Ten Tuesday was created by The Broke and the Bookish in June of 2010 and was moved to That Artsy Reader Girl in January of 2018. It was born of a love of lists, a love of books, and a desire to bring bookish friends together. This week’s theme is: June 26: Series I’ve Given Up On/Don’t Plan to Finish… Continue reading Top Ten Tuesday: Series I’m not going to finish (ever)
If you’ve been following me for a while, you’ll know that fantasy is my favourite genre and I get so much joy out of picking up new books with magic, dragons, and mystical worlds. Of all the books I’ve read this year, these were my five favourites. A Conjuring of Light I could easily have… Continue reading Blogmas Day 17: Five favourite fantasies I’ve read this year
Sometimes, when I begin a new series, I manage to buy or borrow all of the books in a short space of time and finish it within a few weeks/months. But, more often than not, I’ll pick up other books in between, and leave the second and third books for months and months. These are… Continue reading Blogmas Day 7: Series I NEED to finish next year
Recently, I’ve been considering the series I’ve finished, those I currently have ongoing, and those I want to start. With that in mind, I decided that there are a few series I started years ago, and am just not going to finish. 1. The Wool series by Hugh Howey My uncle recommended this to me… Continue reading Series I’m Not Going To Finish
Today I wanted to discuss something that’s been playing on my mind ever since I read Six of Crows in December 2016, RIP my heart. Duologies. As a two-part series, the duology is unique in its role as mediator between stand-alones and trilogies. It has the ability to split a story up into two cohesive, dynamic… Continue reading The Rise of the Duology: The Good, The Bad and… (oh wait that’s it, it’s a two-part series)

I haven’t done a tag in a while (and have quite a few to catch up on!) but I was lucky enough to be tagged by Beth @ ReadingEveryNight to do this one, so thanks Beth! The Harry Potter Book Tag was originally created by Lashaan and Trang at Bookidode, who are also to credit for… Continue reading The Harry Potter Book Tag
When I was writing yesterday’s Top Ten Tuesday post, I suddenly realised how many series I have in progress that I haven’t yet finished. It’s not that I’ve got bored with these series. The opposite, in fact. I adore the books I’ve already read, but due to either my recent reading slump in September/October, or… Continue reading Series I need to finish
Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly feature hosted over at The Broke and The Bookish, and this weeks theme is: Thanksgiving freebie — tell us what you are thankful for! Books you are thankful for! This week, rather than individual books, I’m going to talk about series that I’m thankful for, because if a series has… Continue reading Top Ten Tuesday: Series I’m thankful for
