Cold days and bookish nights… a weekly check-in
This week I had Susan Earlam on my blog answering some questions about her new book, go check out my Q+A. I also reviewed Jeff VanderMeer’s Hummingbird Salamander which is out this week. I finished off Last Night at the Telegraph Club by Malindo Lo….
Walkies and welly recycling… a weekly check-in
So first off, I completely failed at taking part in the London Bookshop Crawl Readathon, I read most of Last Night at the Telegraph Club and that was it. The weather was pretty good for a bank holiday weekend and I got some garden tasks…
Bookshop crawl readathon TBR… and a weekly check-in
I went to a garden centre that I hadn’t been to before at the weekend, it’s only like a minute up from the one we usually go to but it’s more for shrubs and trees. I wanted a laurel to replace the grub infested cape…
Mermaids and memoir… a weekly check-in
Another week gone by and my blog is now the grand old age of ten. Last week I shared my Spring TBR and a review of Kazuo Ishiguro’s new book, Klara and the Sun. Sign-ups are now open for Dewey’s 24 Hour Readathon and I…
What I’ve been reading… a sort of weekly check-in
Hah, I decided I’d do my weekly check in on a Sunday as I’d have more time to take photos and compile my thoughts…obviously that didn’t happen. My blog is fast approaching its 10th birthday so I should really do something for that and stop…
Spring is in the air… a weekly check-in
I haven’t read much this week, I felt like playing Stardew Valley at the weekend and that sucked up most my spare time. Curse you, addictive games! I have played it before but decided to start a new farm on Switch, despite my PC farms…
Floppy alpaca aliens… a weekly check-in
I read The Galaxy, and the Ground Within this week, it’s the Wayfarers books we all need right now, with a big helping of kindness and a message about bridging divides. I’ll review it in full but my main question is how you imagine the…
Mysterious rocks… a weekly check-in
Someone’s been leaving painted rocks around town. The first I spotted was a slightly terrifying hippo-creature: Is someone trying to send a message? It is some pagan ritual? Are they worshipping the hippo gods? Maybe it’s to raise awareness of the potential hippo cull in…
Virtual bookshop crawling, monsters and ghosts… a weekly check-in
Every February the wonderful Bex organises the London Bookshop Crawl and this year it’s gone online, with videos, featured bookshops and offers. I joined in with the chat last night, and came over all nostalgic. So I’m visiting a few shops online and buying more…
Witches, demons and a missing piece… a weekly check-in
I’ve spent a ridiculous amount of time tweaking things on the blog that I doubt anyone but me will look at. I’ve added follow links to the sidebar, so please give them a click, and I’ll be running a celebratory giveaway tomorrow, so keep your…
