The Month That Was… April 2020
Lockdown continues, food supplies seem to be getting back to normal and I’ve finally managed to concentrate on reading some books! I’ve been lucky enough to be able to take my exercise through bluebell woods which are a short walk…
The Month That Was… March 2020
Well obviously, March was the month that the world changed. We now cross the road when we see someone approaching from the opposite direction, yet still call out a cheery “Good morning!”. Scully is enjoying the social distancing from other…
The Month That Was… February 2020
February has been such a wet month, most of it has been spent indoors, lamenting the dreariness. This has meant I’ve read a big pile of books, and bought even more! I read 15 books (and one short story) totalling…
The Month That Was… January 2020
After a bit of a slumpy December, I’ve had a great start to the year book-wise. I read two five star books, Crooked Kingdom and The Calculating Stars. I do find it a bit harder to write reviews of books…

The Month That Was… September 2019
I’m in a bit of a blogging slump these days, I haven’t even managed to post my mini reviews for the Magical Readathon which was in August… I don’t think I want to give up blogging, maybe I just need…
The Month That Was… August 2019
Another month of lots of reading but not much reviewing. I finished my N.E.W.T.s for Magizoologist though and I’ll be posting a wrap-up with mini reviews soon as well as some more in-depth reviews later. In the meantime you can…
The Month That Was… July 2019
Whilst I didn’t get the extreme temperatures many people suffered, July has been a hot old month. My parents came to visit and it’s the second year that I’ve swum in the English Channel. I guess I should be worried…
The Month That Was… June 2019
June has been a bit of a non-month for things on the blog. Sometimes we need a bit of a break, and with work being busy, I’ve not had the mental energy to think up even vaguely thoughtful reviews. I…
