There are two Christmas songs I absolutely love, that you won’t really hear on the radio in December, and which are unlikely to appear on many Christmas playlists. Still, I usually find some version of them to stick on, and today I thought I’d highlight these two as part of my Blogmas posts! The 12ContinueContinue reading “Blogmas Day Nine: Christmas Songs”

Blogmas Day Eight Festive Films – Old Favourites
A few days ago I talked about the films I want to watch this Christmas, but we all have those comfort films we return to year after year, don’t we? The ones we spend most of the year itching to watch, but knowing it just wouldn’t feel right unless it’s almost Christmas. So today IContinueContinue reading “Blogmas Day Eight Festive Films – Old Favourites”
Book Review: School of X – Edited by Gwendolyn Nix
Publisher: AconyteFormat: MOBIRelease Date: December 21st, 2021 Rating: 5/5 Stars I received this book from publisher Aconyte via NetGalley. Reviews remain my own. After reading other Marvel novels, I wasn’t totally sure about pursuing others, but seeing this X-Men offering and noticing it was edited by Gwendolyn Nix, I knew I had to check itContinueContinue reading “Book Review: School of X – Edited by Gwendolyn Nix”
Blogmas Day Six: What’s In Your Stocking?
I love stockings. And I miss stockings! It used to be such a joy, waking up on Christmas morning and finding one gently laid on the end of the bed by ‘Santa’ (aka my lovely dad). For me, I couldn’t open my stocking until my brothers were awake (or maybe I could, but I justContinueContinue reading “Blogmas Day Six: What’s In Your Stocking?”
Blogtober Day Five: A Castle For Christmas
Almost immediately after finishing my Festive Films post, I headed downstairs and put on, not one of the films on my list, but A Castle for Christmas, Netflix’s new Christmas offering. And I loved it. If you’re going to watch this one please remember that, like many films, this isn’t an accurate depiction of theContinueContinue reading “Blogtober Day Five: A Castle For Christmas”
Blogmas Day Four: Festive Films I Want to Watch
I have a confession to make: I have never, ever seen a Hallmark Christmas movie. I know, I know, disgraceful! But maybe it’s because they were never really a thing over here, not like they are in the States, so they weren’t shown on TV? But luckily for me, Netflix seems to have taken overContinueContinue reading “Blogmas Day Four: Festive Films I Want to Watch”
Blogmas Day Three: Childhood Christmas
Today I thought I’d share some memories of Christmas from when I was a kid! Because really, we do tend to lose some of the magic of Christmas as we get older, but these memories are always precious, and this time of year always reminds me of when it felt like hours and hours beforeContinueContinue reading “Blogmas Day Three: Childhood Christmas”
Blogmas Day Two: My 2021 Festive Reads!
I don’t always get the chance to actually read Christmas themed books around Christmas, but this year has been different as I got approved for a few on NetGalley! I’ve been making my way through these, so for Day 2 of Blogmas I thought I’d discuss what I’ve been reading/am planning to read! Currently ReadingHumbugContinueContinue reading “Blogmas Day Two: My 2021 Festive Reads!”
Blogmas Day One: Christmas Songs Tag!
I had so much fun doing my Hamilton Book Tag and when I was contemplating Blogmas and what I could do for it (and hopefully this will be more successful than my Blogtober efforts!) I thought a Christmas Songs Book Tag would be a lot of fun! All I Want for Christmas Is You AContinueContinue reading “Blogmas Day One: Christmas Songs Tag!”
Topic: Books I’d Like to See Adapted – Romance Edition!
I’ve been reading so many great books recently, I thought I’d do a post about the books I’d like to see adapted, whether it’s to TV or film. These are books I think would also work as a TV show or film. And a lot of my recent reads have been Romance, so I figuredContinueContinue reading “Topic: Books I’d Like to See Adapted – Romance Edition!”
