Happy Sunday Lovelies! As we approach September, it seemed only appropriate for this week’s stack to be all about school. For today’s post I have picked four books set in schools, all with some sort of fantastical element. I will condess that I have only read one of these books in this stack, and evenContinue reading “Back to Schools: Books set in a School ~ Sunday Stack #18”

Favourite July Reads – Sunday Stack #15
Hello Lovelies! Happy August! I’m sure like me you are absolutely baffled that we are in August. This year is simultaneously the slowest and the quickest year I feel like there has ever been. July was definitely a much trickier month for me, reading and life-wise, so I’m quite happy to see the end ofContinue reading “Favourite July Reads – Sunday Stack #15”
The Mid Year Freakout Tag 2020
In true ‘Bronwen’ style, I’m doing this tag a little late. I have seen it floating around the internet and have been loving reading everyone else’s posts so knew it was time to actually sit down and actually write mine. I can’t believe this year is racing past us, that we’re actually already thinking aboutContinue reading “The Mid Year Freakout Tag 2020”
The Black Flamingo by Dean Atta
I will admit that I am very late to the game when it comes to this book. Every review for it that I have read gushed at how fantastic it was and this one will be no different. I know my review will be the echo that bounces off the cave walls after the initialContinue reading “The Black Flamingo by Dean Atta”
#Stayhomereadingrush TBR
In a bit of a whirlwind-last-minute decision yesterday, I’ve decided to take on two readathons this month and haphazardly threw together a TBR for the #stayhomereadingrush. Originally, I was set against taking part, deciding that as I was doing the OWLsreadathon already I would most definitely be putting too much on my plate. But asContinue reading “#Stayhomereadingrush TBR”
Vinegar Girl by Anne TylerÂ
I have to say, I think retellings are some of the most challenging reads to pull off. What makes them particuarly difficult is that the original is always such a favourite to so many people. That’s what I was dubious of as I picked up Vinegar Girl by Anne Tyler, a retelling of Shakespeare’s TamingContinue reading “Vinegar Girl by Anne Tyler “
August TBR
Not to sound too much like a cliché but, how is it August already?!? As the school holidays have hit, I am very much looking forward to having a month off to just relax and read and have fun. I do have a bit of ‘teacher-y’ admin to do but, to be honest, I planningContinue reading “August TBR”
What I Got For Christmas and 2019 TBR
I must admit, I was spoilt rotten this Christmas and I am truly grateful. I received lots of lovely and thoughtful gifts that made me feel so special. And most of the gifts did come in the form of books. Oh, my family know me so well! As I said in my recent post aboutContinue reading “What I Got For Christmas and 2019 TBR”
One of Us is Lying
Another day, another book review. This is a book that has been on my TBR for quite some time. I remember seeing it advertised on Instagram before it came out and being instantly hooked. Whilst in the midst of Christmas present shopping, I found it in the back of my local bookshop on the reducedContinue reading “One of Us is Lying”
Fight or Flight
So I have this friend… well, techincally she’s my housemate. Don’t get me wrong, I love her to pieces, but that isn’t to say she isn’t challenging. The trouble with living with people, and particularly living with people whilst you study (which I can only imagine adds to the never ending list of stresses), isContinue reading “Fight or Flight”
