I love anthologies. They’re a great way of exploring a particular genre and theme, as well as discovering new authors or just reading a little more from favourite authors. I’m always on the look out for some good anthologies, but today I thought I’d highlight a few of my favourites from recent years. Black RainbowContinueContinue reading “Topic: 5 Star Anthologies”

Happy New Year!
Well here we are at the end of another year. 2021 has, quite frankly, been one hell of a ride, and not necessarily in a good way.

Must try and be more organised next year (as IContinueContinue reading “Merry Christmas!”
Blogmas Day 24: The Princess Switch: Switched Again
Yep, I couldn’t resist. A few nights ago I decided to watch the sequel to The Princess Switch, which I wrote about previously. I absolutely could have (and probably should have) watched one of the other Christmas films I said I wanted to watch earlier this month, but ah well. There’s only so much timeContinueContinue reading “Blogmas Day 24: The Princess Switch: Switched Again”
