I am currently on holiday in Florida, so I thought that these weekly memes would be a great way to keep my blog running over whilst I wander and enjoy the land of the mouse! Top Ten Tuesday was created by The Broke and the Bookish in June of 2010 and was moved to That Artsy Reader…
Right now I am sunning myself in beautiful Florida and reading won’t be my top priority so I don’t know how much I will actually get read. Plus I don’t really want to put too much pressure on myself. I thought that instead of writing out a TBR I would show you which books that…

This month still wasn’t as good as I have been in previous months and I completely lost sight of my TBR about halfway through. But I was still reading so I wasn’t too worried. I have read some really giant books this month so I’m still not beating myself up. We’ll see how well next…
I was so excited for The Archived. As you might have guessed from some of the previous book reviews on this blog I LOVE Victoria Schwab and her writing style. She writes such amazing books and her characters are always rich and well developed. Well, imagine my surprise when I realised that there was not…
Eleanor Oliphant Is Completely Fine was a book that I have been meaning to read for a very long time and I finally got round to it. If you had asked me to review this book when I was still 100 pages in I think it would have been a very different review. I wasn’t…
Rebel Belle turned out to be a reread but I genuinely didn’t realise until I was halfway through the book, shows what an impact the first read made on me. I also think that this might be the case with this one to be honest, although I really enjoyed the story there was no lasting…

The Grace Year was an interesting concept, it reminded me of The Handmaid’s Tale in all the right ways. I loved the different ways that the girls were categorised and the way that everything comes together really shocked me. I don’t know what I was expecting but it definitely wasn’t that, and I really loved…

Scars Like Wings surprised me in every way possible. I loved everything about this book, I was really worried that it was going to turn into a pity party like 100 Days of Sunlight and I wasn’t sure I could take that again. I didn’t need to panic because this book was unbelievably raw and…
Sycamore Row is the second book to feature Jake Brigance and the other lawyers featured in A Time to Kill. They have this pinned as being the second in a series but I definitely think that this could be read as a standalone novel, and I’m not sure whether that affected my reading of it…
