July, and dare I venture a guess at August as well, are going to be low points in my reading this year. I already hit my personal goal of fifty-two books (currently at fifty-seven), so anything else is just a bonus. With work being a lot busier now (I work in the live events industry…… Continue reading July 2021 Wrap-Up
Due to coming into contact with someone who tested positive for Covid, I’m having to self-isolate (I’m testing negative at least). Was hoping to power through some books … but I also got a PS5 recently so the whole ‘power through some books’ idea turned into ‘get the platinum trophy on Ratchet & Clank’ instead.…… Continue reading Book Haul
As a rule I tend to set myself a target of reading a book a week throughout the year. Last year, I smashed that by hitting one-hundred books over the course of the year so decided that a ‘half-yearly look at me’ style post was in order. This year, by June 30th I have managed…… Continue reading My Half Year in Books Jan 1st – June 30th
I’ve been like a book magpie this past month and it appears everything is shiny and everything must be picked up. Considering my actual reading time has slowed quite a bit, I just seem to be throwing more fuel on to a fire that is in absolutely no danger of ever going out. The first…… Continue reading Book Haul
I picked up a few new things recently, not a huge amount but something across all mediums at least 🙂 I’ve hit the point where I find myself unconsciously slowing down with picking up new things. Hardly a bad thing! Saying that, I’m finding it harder and harder to keep up with my podcasts. Keeping…… Continue reading March’s Mini Haul
Admittedly there will be many more books I get excited for over the course of 2021, but I’m dreadful for keeping my finger on the pulse of new releases. So I actually don’t know a massive list of forthcoming books. But, of the ones I do know of, the five in this post are the…… Continue reading Books I’m Excited About In 2021
I felt like I was doing fairly well at keeping to my ‘don’t get too many books before you got through the TBR on your kindle’ rule I have … so, naturally, when the TBR got down to the high teens I picked more up. Physical/E-Books The Library of the Unwritten in Hell was saved…… Continue reading Book Haul
Around the half way point of the year I did a ‘my half year in books’ so thought it would make total sense to do the 2nd half of that post now. If the post is unreadable it’s because I have grouped images together and you are reading on a mobile device. If WordPress has…… Continue reading My Half Year In Books (July 1st to December 31st) 2020
God bless the pandemic era of constant sales is all I can say. Keeping me in books and audio books pretty damn well. E-Books: Bayr of Saylok, bastard son of a powerful and jealous chieftain, is haunted by the curse once leveled by his dying mother. Bartered, abandoned, and rarely loved, she plagued the land…… Continue reading Book Haul
Some exciting stuff happened in November, most exciting of all were the reports of vaccines that have been proven to be effective and could start making the rounds as early as December. Yay for (hopefully) not living under constant fear of straying within six feet of other people … In less plague-related news, my reading…… Continue reading Monthly Wrap-Up – November 2020
