UPCOMING RELEASE | VERONICA MARS: THE BOOK. SERIOUSLY.
Ridicule if you must, but I’ve spent a large portion of my leftover vacation days in the past week re-watching Veronica Mars. I’ve watched the show a few times now, and yet somehow I just never get sick of it. Sure, the video quality doesn’t seem great compared to new shows, and the fashion choices READ MORE
TOP TEN TUESDAY | TOP TEN NEW-TO-ME AUTHORS I READ IN 2013
This week’s Top Ten Tuesday on The Broke and the Bookish is going to be easy, I think. Though that’ll probably end up being the proverbial famous last words! It’s the top ten new-to-me authors I read in 2013. So let’s just start out with the obvious, shall we? 1. John Green The Fault In READ MORE
TOP TEN TUESDAY | BOOKS ON MY WINTER TBR LIST
This week’s Top Ten Tuesday on The Broke and the Bookish is a seasonal one – the 10 books on my winter TBR list! I’m not entirely sure what this means. Does it mean books that are cosy for warding off a winter chill? Books about winter? Christmas books? I’m not really sure, but I’ve READ MORE
TOP TEN TUESDAY | BEST/WORST SERIES ENDERS
This week’s Top Ten Tuesday on The Broke and the Bookish is Top Ten Best/Worst Series Enders. As I mentioned a couple of TTTs ago, series aren’t really my thing. So this is another challenging one for me – but I’ll do my best! Best: 1. Lord of the Rings by JRR Tolkien. Obvs. READ MORE

LET’S TALK | MOST ANTICIPATED FALL/WINTER BOOKS
This week’s topic on I Swim for Oceans’ weekly “Let’s Talk” link up is: Most Anticipated Fall/Winter Books. Since I stopped reviewing books for an established website, I haven’t been keeping up with upcoming catalogues, so I only have a limited knowledge of what’s coming up in the next 4 months. But that’s not READ MORE
1001 BOOKS TO READ BEFORE YOU DIE (LIKE YOU DIDN’T HAVE ENOUGH TO READ ALREADY)
Who doesn’t like a good list? I very much enjoyed going through the BBC list of 100 books most people haven’t read and discovering that I’d read about a third of them (though I do feel as if I should get on with it and read more). So when a friend told READ MORE
TBR | SUMMER READING!
There’s something special about reading in the summer. Maybe it’s the warm breezes and cool beverages, maybe it’s just that the days are longer and slower.
