Oh hello there! Catch-up, TBR, and #IBW2015!

It has been a while. Guess what I’ve been doing? Working, mostly. Other interesting things too, but working is most important! Last Friday I finished off three months at Penguin Random House, after two weeks of work experience at Transworld I was asked to stay on as a temp for another five weeks. Then I popped over to Cornerstone for another five weeks as they were a bit busy (understatement) and…

TTT - Ten Books I Plan To Have In My Beach Bag This Summer

Ten Books I Plan To Have In My Beach Bag This Summer

Posting this a little late! Completely forgot yesterday, sorry! Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly book meme hosted by The Broke and the Bookish. I won’t have a beach bag this summer, because I’m not going to the beach. And in fact, I don’t really feel as if I would prefer any specific books to read while sat on the sand even if I were. However, I will of course be carrying around a bunch of books in my…

This is a bit of an old one! And by that I mean it’s two years old, which is old for YA. Seemingly though, everyone has read it. At least that may make for some interesting discussion. So… read on for the review and then let me know whether you agree or disagree.

Eleanor & Park – Rainbow Rowell

Top Ten Tuesday - Top Ten All Time Favourite Authors

Top Ten Tuesday - My All Time Favourite Authors! #bookblog #bookmeme #bookbloggers

Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly meme hosted by The Broke and the Bookish.

Well this is a hard one. I find it difficult to pick favourite authors, though while I mostly read contemporary fiction these days my top writers wrote mostly the classics, or books I read growing up that significantly affected my reading habits and my passion for literature.

1. JK Rowling. 

(I’m pretty sure she’ll be topping…

Only Ever Yours - Louise O'Neill

Why I'm giving 3 stars to Only Ever Yours by Louise O'Neill #review #bookreview #bookblog

Only Ever Yours by Louise O’Neill

In a world in which baby girls are no longer born naturally, women are bred in schools, trained in the arts of pleasing men until they are ready for the outside world. At graduation, the most highly rated girls become “companions”, permitted to live with their husbands and breed sons until they are no longer useful.

For the girls left behind, the future – as a…
