Feels very strange to be typing that number.... But here we are 😀 Photo by Bich Tran on Pexels.com I have set a Goodreads goal for the year, and will be aiming to hit 65 books. In the past two years I have managed to reach 66 but didn't want to stretch too much beyond … Continue reading What’s coming up in January 2022
A Quick Look back at 2021
Including a Christmas book haul! I hope you have all had a wonderful Christmas and a very Happy New Year. As we are already a few days into 2022, and before I share what's coming up in January, I thought I would take a quick look back and share the outcome of my Goodreads challenge, … Continue reading A Quick Look back at 2021
Mid-month Musings
It seems only a few hours ago that I was thinking about writing a post about what's coming up for me in November and suddenly here we are a fortnight later and I'm only sitting down to type now. Time flies when you're having fun, apparently. Photo by David Travis on Unsplash My reading has been going well … Continue reading Mid-month Musings
The Chestnut Man – Soren Sveistrup
If you find one, he's already found you I have had this book in my TBR pile for a while and just hadn't picked it up (all of this being virtual because it's on my Kindle app, but you know what I mean..) but then the Book God spotted that it existed as a Netflix … Continue reading The Chestnut Man – Soren Sveistrup
My Week – 17 October edition
It has been a much quieter week than I had intended. Last Sunday I went to the first of three planned screenings at the London Film Festival, and saw the new Edgar Wright film Last Night in Soho (which I loved btw) but due to Life Happenings, I didn't make it to the other two. … Continue reading My Week – 17 October edition
Gunpowder Milkshake [2021]
Three generations of women fight back against those who could take everything from them That would be men then. I dithered over whether to watch this film. At first I thought 'this looks cool' and then I saw some iffy comments and thought 'hmm, perhaps not' and then the Book God said he really wanted … Continue reading Gunpowder Milkshake [2021]
What’s coming up in ….. October 2021
I seem to have created a busy month for myself in October but I can't really complain as we have decided not to go on holiday as we normally would (we didn't last year for obvious reasons) so it's nice to have other things going on.... Image = wallpaper from VladStudio Pre-orders - new books … Continue reading What’s coming up in ….. October 2021
My Week – 26 September edition
It has been a very quiet week chez Bride, partly because I've been feeling a bit under the weather and consequently lethargic, which has meant watching YouTube videos and sleeping. That also means not much reading, though I did manage to finish The Eleventh Day which I mentioned in my post last week. Photo by … Continue reading My Week – 26 September edition
No more looking back…..
I think that I may be coming out of my reading slump but I'm still a little wary of declaring victory just yet. I've also made decisions on my backlog of reviews and I've decided to dump the lot - the long list is making me anxious which is something I don't need right now, … Continue reading No more looking back…..
Looking back at Summer 2021
So, here we are well into the first full week of September and I am only just picking up my virtual pen in order to look back at the past two months after an unplanned break in blogging. Photo by Nicolas Picard on Unsplash The break was not planned (unlike last year when I took a month off) … Continue reading Looking back at Summer 2021
