As I mentioned in my final mini reviews post of 2020, I’m going to do things a little bit differently in 2021. I’m no longer writing mini reviews every single month, but instead I’m filming them for one big mini review video at the end of every month. However, I am aiming to write more full length […]
In an isolated college town in the hills of Southern California, a freshman girl stumbles into her dorm room, falls asleep—and doesn’t wake up. She sleeps through the morning, into the evening. Her roommate, Mei, cannot rouse her. Neither can the paramedics who carry her away, nor the perplexed doctors at the hospital. Then a […]
We’re already nearing the end of January, but I still wanted to talk about my most anticipated releases for the year, since there are a couple of books that I’m really excited about! Some of my favourite authors are coming out with new books, so it’s going to be a great year. Hopefully I’ll get […]
It’s the first reading vlog of the year! In this vlog, I get cosy, bake some bread and finish reading my most anticipated read of the year, Concrete Rose by Angie Thomas. You can read my full review of the novel right here. Hope you enjoy!
With his King Lord dad in prison and his mom working two jobs, seventeen-year-old Maverick Carter helps the only way he knows how: slinging drugs. Life’s not perfect, but he’s got everything under control. Until he finds out he’s a father… Suddenly, it’s not so easy to deal drugs and finish school with a baby […]
We’re already a week into the new year, but I still need to give you my mini reviews for the books I read in December! This is going to be the last mini reviews post in this format because I want to try something new in 2021 (after writing 76 of them…). I had a […]
Happy New Year, everyone! I hope you’ve all had a good New Year’s Day and you’re happy or at least hopeful for 2021. I’m not one for New Year’s resolutions and I try not to get swept up in all of the “new year, new me!” kind of vibes every new year brings, because it […]
In a dusty library, in the quietest corner of a house in a Tokyo suburb, live the Little People: Fern and Balbo, Robin and Iris. Just a few inches high, sleeping cigarette boxes and crafting shoes from old book jackets, they need only one thing from their Humans–a nightly glass of milk, served in a […]
Disclaimer: this post contains spoilers for the Harry Potter series – although, to be fair, if you haven’t read it yet but are offended by HP spoilers, that’s kind of your own fault, isn’t it? There’s a hashtag trending on Twitter today – most of you will have probably seen it: #HarryPotter20. In case you missed […]
Yep. Up until earlier this year I’d never read Alice in Wonderland and Through the Looking-Glass by Lewis Carroll. I’d also never seen any of the film adaptations (still haven’t, actually), so apart from some little nuggets of information and a general idea of “Alice” I didn’t even know what the story was about really. To be honest, I’m still […]
