WWW Wednesday: 8th May 2019

Good evening! I’ve had a really good reading week this week; I’ve had a few days off work and have found a few titles that have really caught my imagination and have been ones that I just haven’t been able to put down!

What are you currently reading? 

FINALE! It’s finally in my hands and it’s beautiful! I’ve only had a chance to read about 20 pages so far, and already I’m loving it.

What did you recently finish reading?

So far this month I’ve read Stepsister by Jennifer Donnelly, and I’m so glad that I finally made the time to read this wonderful retelling! I also read Owen and the Soldier by Lisa Thompson which was beautiful, and Malamander by Thomas Taylor. Fun fact – he illustrated the original Harry Potter books!

What do you think you’ll read next?

I’d like to read some more of my new books next – I have a fair few to choose from!

WWW Wednesday: 1st May 2019

Good evening! I thought I’d check in with a WWW Wednesday post, seeing as I haven’t done one since March…

What are you currently reading? 

I won a finished copy of Step Sister by Jennifer Donnelly (you may remember it from March when I received a proof) and I know I really need to get my bum into gear and read it! I honestly did love what I read, but have just not had enough focus for a fantasy book, but I’m planning on going to bed early tonight and reading!

What did you recently finish reading?

I read a whole book last week (hurrah!) and I LOVED it! It was The Paper & Hearts Society by Lucy Powrie, and I can’t wait to get reviewing whilst I eagerly wait for it to publish so I can reread it!

What do you think you’ll read next?

I don’t know to be honest haha! I’m still working my way through my April TBR…

Hello! I’m sorry that I’ve gone AWOL again; life has gotten very hectic! My boyfriend and I are in the process of buying a flat and it all came along very quickly so that’s taking up a fair amount of time! However, in anticipation of the move, I’ve been having a clear out and am so proud of how much stuff and how many books I’ve managed to unhaul! A year ago I never thought I’d be able to do what I have. Me 1, anxiety 0.

What are you currently reading? 

I have found a little bit of time this week to get started on an AMAZING book – Step Sister by Jennifer Donnelly. I’m hooked and can’t wait to get a decent chunk of time to dedicate to getting lost in this book because it’s brilliant so far. I’m also listening to the audiobook of Love Lessons by Jacqueline Wilson, which is an old favourite. I’ve loved making sure that I just listen to fifteen minutes a day and it helps me to unwind a bit!

What did you recently finish reading?

Most recently I read The Near Witch by VE Schwab, which was such a brilliant short read! I was captivated by the world of Near and the story of the Near Witch. It came out this week, so I highly recommend getting a copy!

What do you think you’ll read next?

I need to get around to finishing How To Make Friends With The Dark by Kathleen Glasgow. I started it before Christmas, and unfortunately didn’t get a chance to come back to it, so I can’t wait to continue because I loved what I read.

WWW Wednesday: 20th February 2019

‘Evening all! This has been a fairly busy week; I’ve been away in Chester so my boyfriend and I could go to the zoo to celebrate our birthdays this week…mine’s today! I’m 25 D:

What are you currently reading? 

I’ve just started Heartstopper by Alice Oseman which is a comic/graphic novel – I’ve read manga lots before, but never anything like this so I’m really excited to carry on reading it!

What did you recently finish reading?

I’ve read A Girl Called Justice by Elly Griffiths this week, which comes out in May. I can’t wait for more people to start reading it so I can rave about it with them because it was wonderful!

What do you think you’ll read next?

I received a copy of VE Schwab’s The Near Witch today, so I think I’ll work my way around to that one next!

WWW Wednesday: 13th February 2019

Good evening! This has been a very varied week full of emotions and hormones, yet I’ve got lots of reading done compared to lately and I’ve had a some really good posts on here what with the The Star-Spun Web Blog Tour and the The Year After You Blog Tour!

What are you currently reading? 

My current read is still I Owe You One by Sophie Kinsella; I finally bought a pretty proper copy and so I’m very excited to get stuck in properly!

What did you recently finish reading?

I read Happy Girl Lucky yesterday and I LOVED IT! It’s such a fluffy yet important teen book and it gave me all the feels. Please excuse the darkness of my picture of the eBook – I live in the UK where I get like a matter of hours a day in decent light, but I also work full time so rarely see those hours! This weekend, I shall show off my shiny finished copy that I bought yesterday!

I also read Tad by Benji Davies today; it’s so cute and I can’t wait to see it all finished and in proper book form!

What do you think you’ll read next?

I’m not too sure yet; I have a few proofs headed my way and some eBooks to make my way through, so I shall see what I fancy!

WWW Wednesday: 6th February 2019

This week I’ve not really got around to reading much; it’s been rather hectic and I’ve just felt too tired to read! That said, I’ve started two books that, from what little I’ve read, are really good, and I’ve spent a lot of time reading tweets…that counts right?!

What are you currently reading? 

I’m currently reading I Owe You One by Sophie Kinsella, which, no surprises, is off to a good start! I love Sophie’s writing style so it’s nice to be back reading one of her books. I’ve also started The Valentines: Happy Girl Lucky by Holly Smale, which, again, is very good so far!

What did you recently finish reading?

I finished The Star-Spun Web last week, and I REALLY enjoyed it! It’s such a good middle grade mystery and adventure, and I’m very excited for my blog tour post and review to go live next week!

What do you think you’ll read next?

I think I shall continue working my way through my NetGalley list, and get on with reading The Colour of Shadows by Phyllida Shrimpton!

WWW Wednesday: 23rd January 2019

Hi! In a week where I’m so so close to hitting 1000 followers on Twitter (yay!), I’ve really been falling back in love with reading and talking about books! I’ve read one AMAZING book this week, and started another which I am loving! So…

What are you currently reading? 

I started The Star-Spun Web by Sinéad O’Hart this week, and I’m really really enjoying it so far! Plus, it’s beautiful. I’m very excited to be on the blog tour for this book next month, so keep an eye open for an exciting post coming this way!

What did you recently finish reading?

Enchantée! I ADORED this book, and I can’t wait to start writing my review…although, I have no idea how to express all the feels I got from this beautiful book!

What do you think you’ll read next?

Next up…I got approved for I Owe You One by Sophie Kinsella on NetGalley, and so I think I shall pretend to be a grown up and read that one next!

WWW Wednesday: 9th January 2019

Hello and welcome to the first WWW Wednesday of 2019 (that I’ve done)! I’ve had a fairly hectic week, but have still been enjoying some books of course! I’ve been so exhausted, that all I want to do is chill when I get home from work and be lazy, so I’ve spent a lot of time on Pinterest where I’ve been planning my wedding…awkward moment of the week when I got a call from a venue (I downloaded their brochure the day before just to have a mooch) and had to explain that I am not actually engaged…yet!

What are you currently reading? 

FINALLY, I’ve started reading Enchantée by Gita Trelease which I am LOVING so much! It’s absolutely wonderful. The description is definitely right; it has a lot of Caraval vibes, and, because I needed a new audiobook, I also started The Night Circus which was also listed! I’m really enjoying that too, especially since the narrator, Jim Kay, is brilliant!

What did you recently finish reading?

I finished The Year After You last week, and it was such a good read! YA meets Enid Blyton; it was brilliant. Look out for my thoughts on this next month when I’m part of the blog tour!

What do you think you’ll read next?

I must read The Day I Was Erased by Lisa Thompson! Her books are always a fab start tot the year!

WWW Wednesday: 12th December 2018

It’s Blogmas day 12! I’m still posting daily despite it being pretty hectic! Welcome back to WWW Wednesday, although I’ve not read much this week.

What are you currently reading? 

I’ve just been lucky enough to receive a proof of The Year After you by Nina de Pass which I’m hoping to start this week!

What did you recently finish reading?

I read Last Stop on the Reindeer Express this week which was such a beautiful and lovely picture book!

What do you think you’ll read next?

I need to make my way through my Christmas picture books for reviewing in the next few weeks, so I shall be reading those!

WWW Wednesday: 5th December 2018

Hello and welcome to my first WWW Wednesday of Blogmas 2018! I’ve slowed down my reading a little bit this week; I’ve had another exam for work (passed, yay!) and am starting to prepare for Christmas and Blogmas meaning that I just haven’t had a chance to read!

What are you currently reading? 

I started How To Make Friends With The Dark by Kathleen Glasgow last week after being very lucky and getting sent a beautiful proof copy! I loved Girl in Pieces so had high hopes for this book, and so far am definitely not disappointed! The only reason I’ve stalled a bit is because I just can’t put it down once I start reading so I need time!

What did you recently finish reading?

I recently finished Opposite of Always by Justin A. Reynolds, which I actually really enjoyed! I also got sent a copy of The Story Orchestra: The Nutcracker by Jessica Courtney-Tickle, just in time for the Christmas season!

What do you think you’ll read next?

I still want to get around to reading Enchantée!
