Recent Book Buys | Book Haul
Recently, I've ordered way too many books from Waterstones, but will that stop me from ordering more? Absolutely not. Will that stop me from walking through the book aisle of the supermarket during a food shop and inevitably buying more books? Absolutely not. Before my list of recent buys gets too long, I thought I'd share some of the books I've bought over the last couple of weeks.

Six Month Reading Wrap Up
We are officially halfway through the year - and it’s honestly so hard to believe that we’re six months in already, given the current circumstances. 2020 has undeniably been the craziest year of my life so far.

‘A Good Girl’s Guide to Murder’ by Holly Jackson – Book Review
TW: mentions of murder, suicide, and potentially sensitive subject matter. I’ve always been a lover of Crime Fiction, and YA books have also always been a guilty pleasure of mine, so when I found out that there was a subcategory linking these two things, I was beyond excited. How had I not found out about YA Crime Thrillers sooner? It was once again Bookstagram that led me to this gem of a book - so here's what I thought on Holly Jackson's 'A Good Girl's Guide to Murder'.
Animal Crossing New Horizons Book Tag
This post was inspired by Vicky (What Vicky Read). A book-related tag with Animal Crossing New Horizons-themed questions - perfect for those bookworms who have neglected all their books to play this game!
Write With Rupi | Rupi Kaur’s Instagram Writing Workshops
During Lockdown, poet Rupi Kaur has been hosting some Writing Workshops via Instagram live, and I've really enjoyed following along - so much so that I wanted to share a little information about what they are, and a couple of pieces I've created from them!
