Top Ten Tuesday | Titles with Occupations



Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly feature that highlights ten books that all relate to a certain topic and is  hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl. 

This Weeks Topic Is...


Titles with Occupations in them. This was a fair bit harder then I thought it would be but I managed to trawl through my Goodreads shelves and find a bunch. Some of them are kind of a stretch but I tried not to go for too obvious ones. I mean, thief is totally a job right?

A non-bookish freebie so I chose to highlight some of my favourite comfort films which is basically made up of a load of rom-coms. Some honourable mentions that just didn't quite make it on the list are Bend it Like Beckham, She's the Man, Hocus Pocus, Hairspray & A Cinderella Story.

Top Ten Tuesday | Doorstop Books


Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly feature that highlights ten books that all relate to a certain topic and is  hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl. 

This Weeks Topic Is...


Doorstop Books!

These are the most intimidating reads on my bookshelf, the ones that I know I'm going to have to set aside at least a few weeks to get through cause they are chunky. I really don't tend to reach for longer reads at the moment, my attention span just not allowing for it but these all have such high praise so hopefully one day they'll be read.

Top Ten Tuesday | To All the Books I DNF'd


Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly feature that highlights ten books that all relate to a certain topic and is  hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl. 

This Weeks Topic Is...


Books I Never Finished. It's extremely rare that I DNF books. I'm pretty good at figuring out my reading tastes and whether I'm going to enjoy a book or not from it's description alone. However some books do slip through the cracks and, for whatever reason, I'm just not vibing with it.

Top Ten Tuesday | 2024 Releases I Was Excited to Read but Still Haven’t Gotten To


Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly feature that highlights ten books that all relate to a certain topic and is  hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl. 

This Weeks Topic Is...


2024 Releases I Was Excited to Read but Still Haven’t Gotten To.
I tend to be fairly late to the game with new releases anyway, I seem to always prioritise backlist titles over newer ones but since having access to loads of library books through Libby since last year, I've actually managed to get to loads of titles I was excited about in 2024. The majority of this list is special editions I got through subscription boxes plus some pre-orders that I just haven't found the time to get to.

So, this weeks topic is actually to list the books you wanted to read in 2023 but instead I thought I'd do my most anticipated releases seeing as I missed it the other week. I could have added so many more books to this list, there's so many that I'm excited about being released in the upcoming months. These ten have me very excited though and I can't wait to get my hands on them!

When I think of summer reading there's always bright colours (lots of yellow/pink/orange) and it's pretty much all contemporaries as well.

 Tuesday is a weekly feature that highlights ten books that all relate to a certain topic and is  hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl. 

This Weeks Topic Is...


Valentine's Day freebie! I decided to take the easy route and highlight some of my favourite romantic passages and quotes!


đź’• “He's more myself than I am. Whatever our souls are made of, his and mine are the same.” - Wuthering Heights by Emily Bronte

đź’“ “Once upon a time there was a boy who loved a girl, and her laughter was a question he wanted to spend his whole life answering.” - The History of Love by Nicole Krauss

đź’– “For the two of us, home isn't a place. It is a person. And we are finally home.” - Anna and the French Kiss by Stephanie Perkins

đź’— “Well, it seems to me that the best relationships - the ones that last - are frequently the ones that are rooted in friendship. You know, one day you look at the person and you see something more than you did the night before. Like a switch has been flicked somewhere. And the person who was just a friend is... suddenly the only person you can ever imagine yourself with.” - Dana Scully, The X Files

đź’ž “In the darkness, two shadows, reaching through the hopeless, heavy dusk. Their hands meet, and light spills in a flood like a hundred golden urns pouring out of the sun.” - The Song of Achilles by Madeline Miller

đź’• “I've never had a moment's doubt. I love you. I believe in you completely. You are my dearest one. My reason for life." - Atonement by Ian McEwan

đź’“ “You know, when it works, love is pretty amazing. It's not overrated. There's a reason for all those songs.” - This Lullaby by Sarah Dessen

đź’– “To love oneself is the beginning of a lifelong romance.” - Oscar Wilde

đź’—  “I fell in love with him. But I don't just stay with him by default as if there's no one else available to me. I stay with him because I choose to, every day that I wake up, every day that we fight or lie to each other or disappoint each other. I choose him over and over again, and he chooses me.” - Allegiant by Veronica Roth

đź’ž “If there ever comes a day when we can't be together, keep me in your heart. I'll stay there forever.” - A.A. Milne

Top Ten Tuesday | Books With Suns on the Cover

This Weeks Topic Is...


Books with [___] On the Cover! I had no idea what I was gonna choose for this topic and then I came across a list with books that had a source of light on the cover and then I decided to narrow it down to just suns/sunsets which looking back now was probably a mistake as it took me a damn long time to find ten of them! I didn't think it would be that hard!

Books on my Spring 2022 TBR! Hey, it's been a while since I did one of these posts but I've of course had no time for blogging really plus recent topics haven't struck any inspiration in me. I always like these topics though as it gives me a chance to do a rough plan of books I'd like to get to in the coming weeks.

This Weeks Topic Is...


The Best Books I Read In 2021!  Here we go, my favourite books that I read this year. Out of 78 books, I actually only gave out seven 5 stars and one of those was a re-read so it doesn't technically belong on this list.  So we have my six 5 stars plus a few 4 stars that were so close to being a five and were still incredible books. In no particular order...
