Top Ten Sequels I Can’t Wait To Get My Hands On I tend to be pretty good when it comes to finishing series. I usually binge-buy and/or binge-read them, and don’t like to leave a series unfinished. I also tend to prefer reading a series when all of the books have either been released, or they’re […]
Top Ten Tuesday – Characters I Wish Would Get Their Own Book
Top Ten Characters I Wish Would Get Their Own Book This was a bit of a tricky topic for me, I had to give it some serious consideration because so few names jumped right into my head! 1. Lily, James, Sirius, Remus etc. from Harry Potter – I think all Potter fans, but particularly the older […]
Top Ten Tuesday – Books I Want To Reread
Top Ten Books I Want To Reread I don’t reread half as much as I used to pre-blogging, and I definitely don’t reread as much as I would like. I’m thinking I might get the chance to do some rereading towards the end of this year and over the Christmas holidays, as I’ll be taking […]
Top Ten Tuesday – Halloween Movies For Scaredy Cats
Top Ten Halloween Movies For Scardey Cats I recently did a post for Ominous October, which is being hosted by Ula @ Blog of Erised, where I discussed my book picks for scaredy cats at Halloween. So, today I’m going to mix it up by doing my Top Ten Halloween Movies, but for scaredy cats. […]
Top Ten Tuesday – New Series I’m Lusting After
Top Ten New Series I’m Lusting After I had to enlist trusty Goodreads again for this one. I have a considerable backlist to get through, but pre-blogging I can rarely pinpoint new series release dates. So, according to Goodreads’ Lists, here are the Top Ten New Series I’m Lusting After, where the first book was released […]
Top Ten Tuesday – Places Books Have Made Me Want To Visit
Top Ten Places Books Have Made Me Want To Visit Places books have made me want to visit… Aside from a few obvious childhood favourite bookish settings, I don’t think I’ve ever really given this one much consideration… But there’s no time like the present! I don’t think I’ll be including many dystopians this week, while […]
Top Ten Tuesday – I Like My Characters To Have Issues
Top Ten Character Driven Novels So this week was a little tougher for me. Before I could compile my list I had to do some research on what the hell a “character driven” novel is. I’ve heard the phrase before, but I’ve never really stopped to consider if what I’m reading is character driven, plot driven, […]
Top Ten Tuesday – Difficult Reads
Top Ten Difficult Reads For this week’s Top Ten Tuesday, my definition of “difficult” varies – I’ve included books that were either challenging to read because of the structure of the novel or the type of language used, and books that were difficult to read because of the subject matter. I’ve done it again, guys! […]
Top Ten Tuesday – My Autumn TBR Pile
Top Ten Books On My Autumn “To Be Read” Pile OK, quick story time – I made a small(ish) book purchase at the start of the month, then I read Throne of Glass last week (you can see my 5* review here), and instantly went on-line to purchase the other three books that are available […]
Top Ten Tuesday – Authors I’ve Only Read One Book By, And Need More!
Top Ten Authors I’ve Only Read One Book By, And Need More! My Goodreads account was used to help me compile today’s list, these are authors I’ve only read one book by, ordered by most recent-first. I’m going to hold-off on including a poll at the end of this TTT, but feel free to recommend […]
Top Ten Tuesday – Underrated Books
Top Ten Underrated Books That Need More Love I love Top Ten Tuesday posts, but lately they’ve somehow got me in a pickle – do I do top ten books or authors? Do I do both? Do I do recent reads or books I read years ago? How can I even begin to remember them so I […]
Top Ten Tuesday – Characters Who Would’ve Sat At My Lunch Table
Top Ten Characters Who Would’ve Sat At My Lunch Table I find these topics really tricky and I’m not sure why?! I went to an all girl’s school, so I guess there’s that. This list is a mix of characters who probably would have sat at my table, and characters who I wish would have sat […]
Top Ten Tuesday – Books I Can’t Wait To Read (But Don’t Own Yet)
Top Ten Books I Can’t Wait To Read (But Don’t Own Yet) I’ve spent some time in the last week or so sorting through my Goodreads shelves, separating my “wishlist” reads, from the “I’m thinking about reading them” reads and the “I own them and need to read them” reads. It’s made my TBR look […]

Top Ten Books People Tell Me I HAVE To Read (All The Time) We all get book recommendations thrown at us from 100 different directions – Book Geeks love a book so much they have to share it with the world and push it on everyone they meet, we watch videos and read blogs and […]
Top Ten Tuesday – Books That Give Me Bookish-Indecisive Syndrome
Top Ten Books That Give Me Bookish-Indecisive Syndrome It happens to the best of us. You spot a book on offer for a great price, or you read a blurb and think a book sounds right up your street, you may even hanker after it for a while – so sure that you definitely need that book […]
Top Ten Tuesday – Books I’d Recommend to the Reluctant Reader
Top Ten Books I’d Recommend to the Reluctant Reader As a reader, I find it really difficult to pick a favourite genre. I tend to dip in and out of a really wide variety of books so rather than sticking with just one theme today, I’ve decided to go with books I’d give to someone […]
