Birthday Book Haul!

Hi all! February is always the worst month for me because it's my birthday. I tend to enjoy my birthday, so I don't hate it for that reason, but I go overboard in buying myself books and presents because it's my birthday month ... so I always justify a purchase with "it's my birthday, I …

My Favourite Book Tropes + Book Recs!

Hi all! I'm a massive genre reader: I especially love fantasy and romance, and even better if the book is a fantasy romance. And a lot of the times in genre books you come across the same tropes over and over again. Some people tire quickly of tropes, but I love them. When I know …

Books I Want To Reread

Hi all! So I've been in a very nostalgic mood the past few months and I've slowly started to reread a bunch of my favourite romance novels.

Best Books of 2018

This is probably one of the hardest posts I've ever written because choosing my favourite books that I read last year is tough. I read 175 books last year and when I sat down and started choosing the best reads, my list came to 36 books. Originally, I was going to write up three blog …

My Ultimate Best Bookshelf a.k.a My Favourite Books of All Time

Hi all! Let me just get this out of the way: I'm that type of weirdo who loves going through their Goodreads shelves because it's a calming experience / it makes me feel really good looking at how neat and ordered my shelves are. Please tell me this is something you also do?? Please? Anyway, …

September Wrap-Up: The Month of Procrastination

Hi all! Wow, September is over! This year is flying by, which both scares the crap out of me because I'll be graduating soon, and excites me because I'll be in America soon. This month, I really procrastinated the crap out of everything: uni assignments were ignored and then frantically written the night before; I basically pretended …

ARC Review: Muse of Nightmares by Laini Taylor

Thank you very much to Hachette Australia and Netgalley for providing a copy of the novel in exchange for an honest review.  I was a little hesitant to pick up Strange the Dreamer. …
