It's almost mid-July (does time speed up as you get older? help!) and I wasn't actually going to do a mid-year check in, because I've been quiet and demotivated, and figured I'd missed the train on it, but if my dear friend BookForager can post hers this week, then so can I! And hopefully it'll… Continue reading The Mid Year Check In 2022

The A-Z Book Tag
I decided to take a break from blogging to relieve pressure on myself with my reading and how I spent my evenings, but I'm slowly getting back into it and there's no better way to do that than a book tag! This is one I saw Peat @ Peat Long's Blog do a little while… Continue reading The A-Z Book Tag
Women in SFF: Lifetime Achievement Awards

We decided to do something a little different for it, and we set five categories and nominated a book, author, or character each. Here are our final choices, but we'd love to hear what you think!

The StoryGraph Tag
Last year I swapped over from Goodreads to The StoryGraph to track my reading, and I've absolutely loved it. It's got a polished look, is user friendly, has so many more features and is adding more every week, has personalised recommendations, and isn't owned by Amazon. Seriously, I can't recommend it enough! It also lets… Continue reading The StoryGraph Tag
