Over the course of the year, I’ve found it a bit of a struggle to get into the reading mindset. Audio books have been a lifeline for me as far as books go and I can get through those at an absolutely absurd rate. I suddenly feel like I’m coming into more of a flow…… Continue reading Book Haul – Trying to get my motivation back
I’m struggling to find time to blog, but am still getting through a fair amount of audio books and the occasional regular read. By the time I actually get back into some kind of regular rhythm, I should have bag loads of stuff to review. Even more considering the amount I’ve picked up recently. Audible…… Continue reading Book Haul
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
