Comfort Reading to Brighten Blue Monday

January 21, 2019 ~ pageturning ~ 2 Comments

It’s that time of year again. The Christmas lights are down but the world is still cold and dark (especially if you foolishly moved to Canada - hello weekend snowstorm). The pubs have stopped serving mulled wine and we’re stuck with several more months of winter without Christmas, which is essentially what made Narnia so … Continue reading Comfort Reading to Brighten Blue Monday

Is it Worth Paying for a Creative Writing Course?

January 7, 2019January 7, 2019 ~ pageturning ~ Leave a comment

So, this is a question I’ve googled a lot of times myself, and I don’t think I’ve ever found an answer that felt applicable to me. That may well mean my answer’s not applicable to other people, but having just taken my first courses in Creative Writing at the University of Toronto, I wanted to … Continue reading Is it Worth Paying for a Creative Writing Course?

5 Favourite Books from 2018

January 5, 2019January 7, 2019 ~ pageturning ~ 2 Comments

I read 131 books in 2018 so it’s a bit tricky to choose just five, but I also feel like if I tried to explain all the books I loved and why I loved them, this would be an unfeasibly long post so I’ll have to narrow it down. 2018 was a year of wonderful … Continue reading 5 Favourite Books from 2018

New Year New Books New Blog

January 1, 2019December 31, 2018 ~ pageturning ~ 4 Comments

 So, this is I think my third attempt at starting a book blog, but I feel like I’m in a good place now as a reader and with my work and general life to actually commit to it so that’s exciting! In the past, I’ve focused mainly on book reviews and I tend to read … Continue reading New Year New Books New Blog

So pleased to have finally read this one. It had the longest hold list I’ve ever seen at the library and its slightly battered cover is further evidence of how many people have already read it and loved it. Such a fascinating, inspiring true story #bookstagram #booksofinstagram #bookish #educated #tarawestover #bookrecommendation #librarybook #memoir
Took me a while to get to this one but I’m glad to have seen Lou’s story through to the end 😊 #bookstagram #booksofinstagram #readersofinstagram #jojomoyes #stillme #mebeforeyou #bibliophile #librarybooks
I don’t have the words to express how much I love this book and this trilogy - what a treat 😍 #bookstagram #booksofinstagram #readersofinstagram #thewinterofthewitch #thebearandthenightingale #katherinearden #fantasybooks #trilogy #bibliophile #librarybooks
Well this was just lovely and made me very very hungry throughout 😍 Listened on audio and loved it but will have to buy a physical copy for the recipes #rubytandoh #eatup #audible #bookstagram #booksofinstagram #audiobook #readersofinstagram #bookrecommendation #booksaboutfood #recipebook
Love love loved these books. I hadn’t even heard of them until joining bookstagram and I’m so glad to have seen them recommended so much because they’ve made me smile lots and lots. These are library books as usual (as you can probably tell from the shiny shiny covers) but I think I’m going to have to buy my own copies because these are stories I’ll want to come back to again and again #bookstagram #booksofinstagram #bookish #bookrecommendations #readingrecommendations #readersofinstagram #mackenzilee #agentlemansguidetoviceandvirtue #aladysguidetopetticoatsandpiracy #librarybooks #youngadultbooks #yareads
