  This week’s prompt: July is a month for getaways and adventure. What is your favorite book that takes the reader on an exciting journey or transfers them to a captivating destination? I enjoy reading travel memoirs. Partly I love the vicarious dopamine of reading about people dropping everything in their lives, packing a backpack READ MORE

  This week’s prompts is: Do you listen to audiobooks? If so, do you prefer listening instead of reading? YES. That’s the short answer to the first part of this question. I am a very involved stay-at-home-mum to a kid who is amazing, brilliant, creative and interesting. But needs quite a lot of attention. I READ MORE

  This week’s prompt is an interesting one. Movie adaptations of books get a bad rap, but there are some really great ones out there. Some are obvious, others are lesser-known. And then there are TV show adaptations, which are often my favourites. Here are a few: Movies:               The Lord READ MORE

  This is one of those questions that’s phrased as an either/or, but in reality has a huge middle ground. As any of you who have been around here for a while know, I read both, usually in pretty equal measure I think. I’m reading more fiction this year as I’ve been assigned two fiction READ MORE

  Like last week’s prompt, I feel like this is more aimed at reviewers who publish reviews in exchange for copies of books. I don’t now, but I used to, and when I did I tried to publish on or shortly after publication date. Sometimes this was requested by the publisher, so I adopted it READ MORE

I don’t really have a schedule for reviewing books – back when I reviewed for publishers I don’t think I ever missed a review that needed to be posted by a particular date. But now that I am reviewing just out of interest, I will often put aside a review and READ MORE

  Well, the weekly link-up I used to participate in on Wednesdays seems to have disappeared (I’d link you, but it’s a blank page now, so there’s really no point!). On the plus side, it gave me a reason to look around for a new link-up or two to try. I’ll be giving Book Blogger READ MORE

  This Week’s Prompt: In one sentence, describe your passion for reading. Reading has allowed me to see myself, other people, and the world in different ways and has given me a way to escape boredom and pain. Well, that was a short one! I’d love to hear your own one-sentence summary of your reading READ MORE

  This Week’s Prompt: Name a book that changed your life. This is a hard one, because I feel like there are so many books that have deeply affected me, and that have changed some part of how I view the world. So I’m going to go with probably the first book that had a READ MORE
