It's the first of my 2022 monthly wrap ups. I forgot it was Sunday so my schedule has gone awry, but here we are. Unlike most of the human race, I do not hate January. It's mine (and my best friend's) birthdays in January, and it's a cosy, quiet month as we get back to... Continue Reading →

Another Sunday is upon us already! This week, the lovely Steph has us sharing six books we can't wait for. This was harder to write than I thought it would be because there are so many books I'm excited for in 2022. In no particular order, six of the books I am most excited to... Continue Reading →
It's a ThursTag on a Friday, which seems appropriate for this week where I have had no idea what day it is. Here is part two of the mammoth End of the Year Book Survey! BLOGGING/BOOKISH LIFE 1. New favorite book blog/Bookstagram/Youtube channel you discovered in 2021? I've not discovered much new this year because... Continue Reading →
Thursday can mean only one thing: tag day! Today, I'm sharing half of the End of the Year Reading Survey which I read (and thoroughly enjoyed) on Amy's blog. I thought this would be a great way to round off and wrap up 2021 but it's too much for one post so you're getting half... Continue Reading →
For this first week of 2021, I'm concentrating on wrapping up last year's reading starting with my first "Coffee and..." post looking at how my 2021 reading went and whether I achieved my goals for last year.
