How Do You Read? Many years ago, when reading on a kindle first came a thing. I remember being horrified. I loved my ‘real’ books, and there was no way I would ever read a book on a device. When starting to think about books vs kindle, I did a google search, and found that […]
52 Week Book Challenge February
It’s been another great month of reading. The books I’ve read this month, have mostly been actual books. I had a birthday in January and much to my pleasure, received books as gifts. I’ve only read two audiobooks in recent weeks, as I’ve been keen to catch up on a few podcasts. Also one of […]
52 Week Book Challenge January #whatsonyourbookshelfchallenge
I was so happy when I saw that the #whatsonyourbookshelfchallenge link up was back for 2022. My fingers were crossed that it would be back as I’ve come to really look forward to it. I love reading the bookish posts that are linked up, and say a big thank you to Sue, Jo, Deb and […]

November Book Corner
Devotion by Hannah Kent was released about three weeks ago. I had been waiting impatiently all year for its release, so made a special trip into town, to pick up a copy. I have this thing, where I can’t go into a book shop and come out with just one book. Without fail, I always […]
Book Corner October 2021
I’ve read six books this month and listened to seven audio books. Being spring, I’ve spent many hours in the garden, which is why I’ve listened to more audio books than usual. I’ve chosen this month to share two highlight books and one book that I thought would be a highlight, but haven’t totally given […]
Book Corner September 2021
Over the past month, I’ve read quite a few books and listened to just as many audio books. I’ve possibly been not making good choices as most of the books read, I would classify as three star. They were enjoyable but not memorable. The two books here are the exception. I have given them both […]
