This has been a big year for me, not just in terms of blogging. I’ve been seeing people doing this on Twitter and I decided to change up my blog schedule a little bit and share with you the high points of 2017 on this last day of Blogmas....

It's Christmas Eve and that means it's the end of Blogmas! The majority of these books I have been raving about on social media all year so I'm pretty much an advocate for them now, so they are my 2017 recommendations even though a couple of them...

When I asked for guest posts I was really happy that Jenn wanted to do this post for me, I'd offered to write this post for Emily from Always Opinionated Girl, which you can check that out here, but I really wanted to showcase this post myself. So...

At the start of November I put together a playlist of Christmas songs and I never really added to it so whenever I go out I'm listening to the same 20 songs on repeat. I don't know why this happened but it did and I thought I'd share them with you...

Wrapping presents and giving them in general is something I have always enjoyed doing. I would honestly say I prefer to give gifts than receive them, not just because I get really awkward about opening presents in front of people.. I'm also a bit...

It’s strange to be writing this while there is a snow blizzard going on outside and the roaring fire going on inside. I’ve always loved this time of year, when the days get shorter and darker and nights colder - giving me an excuse to curl up under...

Back on the 2nd day of Blogmas I had Zoe on my blog talking us through her top 5 Christmas films, her choices were so different from mine except for one film, that I had to do my own top 5 to compare. So here are my top 5 Christmas films, not really...

Saturday, 16 December 2017 • blogmas17, book review

This isn't like a usual book review on my blog. Sarah from The Little Contemporary Corner asked if I would like to take part in a blog tour for the I'll Be Home For Christmas anthology, and I volunteered to take the stop for Holly Bourne's story,...

Why I picked this topic is beyond me. For those of you who know me know I struggle with the lack of daylight hours, the dark mornings and the even longer dark nights. So why say you'll write about the reasons you love Winter for, you silly girl??...

Bit of a reshuffle in my schedule because I wanted to get this tag up since I did my YA naughty and nice lists a couple of days ago. Subtle hint to check those out too... This is a tag by Jenn, so go check out her post if you want some more inspiration. I...

If you're a bookworm, you're going to end up in a bookshop at some point. Obviously. So why not pick up a few stocking fillers while you're there? Especially when they're all under a tenner. Keep reading if you need a few more present ideas from...

Yesterday we had the naughty list, featuring ten YA characters that I think deserve to get coal this Christmas. If I'm being honest, writing the nice list was much harder, not because I didn't have plenty of protagonists to choose from, but because...

Monday, 11 December 2017 • blogmas17, personal, ya

This list actually came out of another project I'm working on (all to be revealed in the New Year) but I was trying to come up with booky Christmas ideas that were a bit more unusual and I thought a character naughty and nice list would be a lot of...

Welcome to another day of blogmas! Today I am hosting Kirsten who is a lovely lady you might have seen around on my Twitter. Kirsten has a book review/Christmas tradition post for you all today and it's about a very sweet book that I'd actually never...

I'm sure for a lot of people Chester seems like quite a random place to visit for festiveness. It wouldn't be on my radar either if my dad hasn't moved there last year but he did and this year I got to go and visit for the weekend. The Christmas...

When Rebecca suggested this topic for a guest post, I was all over it like marshmallows on hot chocolate because this year, I am actually going to some exciting places in the build up to Christmas. I am flying to New Zealand (I may even be there...

This is my 100th blog post. I don't know how I managed to keep this up for almost an entire year but I did it. I feel like Christmas is a good time to reflect on all the good things that have happened the year, and also set myself a few goals...

Today I am hosting the lovely Amy from Golden Books Girl and she has very kindly written me a list of some of her New Years resolutions! I definitely recommend you check Amy out, she started blogging just a little bit after me so I've been following...

It's December now, if you haven't started Christmas shopping yet it could be either because you're waiting for pay day or you don't know where to start. Well, if you're buying for bookworms -look no further. What do you buy your book...

Top 5 Christmas Films I don't think anything gets me in the mood for Christmas more, than a Christmas film. I'm not sure what it is about these films, but sitting on a sofa, wrapped in a blanket, with a mug of hot chocolate, watching these films...

It's been a while since I did a tag post and since Christmas is my favourite time of year I thought it would be perfect for me to answer some Christmassy questions. I won't be tagging anyone because a lot of my friends are doing Blogmas so I...

Hi everyone and welcome to day one of my first ever Blogmas! I've been excited about doing this since I started my blog back in January and have had some of the upcoming posts planned for months now. I've also asked friends and fellow bloggers to...
