With Blogmas over, I thought it’d be fun to return to my Dreaded TBR posts, where I try to clear more books from way too large Goodreads Want to Read shelf. I admit, I used to have a problem with going through the recommendations lists and adding anything that caught my eye, but did youContinueContinue reading “That Dreaded TBR #24”

Merry Christmas!
Well, it’s Christmas Day. When this gets posted, anyway, as I’m writing it the afternoon before, regretting leaving my wrapping until this morning as I also wanted to bake something and, well, it just took up my whole morning and a chunk of my afternoon. 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”

Blogmas Day 21: My Favourite Christmas Trope
Over the last year, I have been reading more Romance than I have previously. It was a genre I very much liked when I was younger, but it’s not one I had a proper chance to return to until this year. I’m loving the variety of different Romance books I’ve been reading, and absolutely loveContinueContinue reading “Blogmas Day 21: My Favourite Christmas Trope”
Blogmas Day 20: Christmas Books Ranked
As I’m still working on writing up the reviews for the Christmas books I’ve read this year, I thought I’d just do a post sort of ranking them. They’re all very different and no doubt will appeal to different tastes, but you can read more of my thoughts in the full reviews, which, I’m hoping,ContinueContinue reading “Blogmas Day 20: Christmas Books Ranked”
Blogmas Day Nineteen: Christmas Albums
I was thinking yesterday, as I shifted from one type of Christmas song to the next, how the wonderful thing about Christmas music is it can come in all sorts of different genres. There’s a lot of variety out there, so even if someone doesn’t like – or is fed up of – the usualContinueContinue reading “Blogmas Day Nineteen: Christmas Albums”
Blogmas Day Eighteen: End of Year Book Tag
I did this Book Tag originally back in 2019, and thought I’d revisit it this year as part of my Blogmas posts. The tag was from Jenniely, who provided the inspiration for my 2019 Blogmas posts. 1. Are there any books you started this year you need to finish? I’m reading a few different booksContinueContinue reading “Blogmas Day Eighteen: End of Year Book Tag”
Blogmas Day Seventeen: Revisiting 2020
Why in all hell would I want to revisit that awful year??? Well, here’s the thing, back in 2019, I managed to get some Blogmas posts up during December. And as I was pondering what to do for my next post, I decided to look through the old ones and see if there was anyContinueContinue reading “Blogmas Day Seventeen: Revisiting 2020”
