Welcome to the monthly post where I give myself unrealistic goals and expectations that will probably lead me to not achieving them! I am your host: the unreliable reader and let us get moving... So, last month I had set myself a goal of reading 8 books. I managed to read 4 books last month,… Continue reading May Monthly Hopefuls
Just like The Importance of being Earnest, this book has spent a while on my TBR. It first appeared 77 months ago on my physical TBR as preparation for my A-Level project wehre I had to pick a book to write an essay on. I never got round to reading this one as I chose… Continue reading Book Review #14: Slaughterhouse 5
I have seen a few videos on BookTube of people predicting their potential five star reads and reacting to them after reading them. It is always a fun concept to watch and I thought why not do it myself! Firstly though, I think it may be a good idea to see what constitute as a… Continue reading My 5 star predictions
This has got to be one of the books that has been lounging on my TBR for the longest time! I think I calculated and it has spent 93 months on my physical TBR pile! Shocking! I decided that I wanted to read it as I was looking for relatively short books/plays to read over… Continue reading Book Review #13: The Importance of being Earnest
Welcome to the monthly post where I give myself unrealistic goals and expectations that will probably lead me to not achieving them! I am your host: the unreliable reader and let us get moving...

Ok if I thought that I was late for February's monthly wrap up then what do I call this! But better late than never? Wrap up time So over the course of March I ended up reading a total of 4 books: Circe by Madeline Miller Scythe by Neal Shusterman Shantaram by Gregory David Roberts… Continue reading March Monthly Wrap up and Stats
The second within the trilogy, I believe that The Arc of Scythe will become a cherished series for me. I fell in love with Scythe, so much so I think that my review of it is slightly erratic! I will definitely have to tweak that review once I have finished reading the final book in… Continue reading Book Review #12: Thunderhead
Shantaram, a book I had not heard of until my colleague was raving about it in work. A weapon of a novel, purely because of its brick like size, that read like a fiction but is seemingly an autobiography. Gregory David Roberts has so far lived a life unlike any other life that I have… Continue reading Book Review #11: Shantaram
Last month I did a post where a random number generator generated how many hours I read for a week, and on the back of it I was wondering how long I actually read in a read. I know reading weeks vary for everyone, and it definitely varies for me, but I have never really… Continue reading Realistic reading week
Ok this has to be the quickest I have read a book so far in 2024! This book series I discovered thanks to Haley Pham recommending it on her YouTube channel last year - I think that it was during the summer months. After seeing that video I immediately added it to my wishlist, and… Continue reading Book Review #10: Scythe
