Everything to do with books! Mostly book reviews, but occasionally, I have the non-review bookish post too.

June ’23 Rereading: Day 11 – Mansfield Park Part 1

June 11, 2023

After not really reading (or rereading) yesterday, I have started on another old favourite today – Mansfield Park! I remember someone saying that Fanny Price is Austen’s most unlieable heroine, and that is something that I’ve never quite understood because I do quite like Fanny. But more on that later. First, I want to talk… Read More June ’23 Rereading: Day 11 – Mansfield Park Part 1

Book Review: The Silence of Bones by June Hur

June 9, 2023
The Silence of Bones by June Hur

Given that I really enjoyed The Red Palace by June Hur, I made sure to borrow The Silence of Bones when I passed by a library that had it. The Silence of Bones was actually the June Hur book I originally intended to read, since CamilleaRead’s review of it intrigued me so much! Set a… Read More Book Review: The Silence of Bones by June Hur

June ’23 Rereading: Day 8 – Sense & Sensibility Part 2

June 8, 2023

As planned, I finished Sense & Sensibility today and since I didn’t have time to write my originally planned post, it’s time for my update! After finishing the novel this time, I have decided that my current favourite character is Mrs Jennings. While the girls tend to think of her as being rather silly at… Read More June ’23 Rereading: Day 8 – Sense & Sensibility Part 2

June 23 Rereading Day 7

Hello all! For the past two days, I have been rereading this beauty: While it’s not my first time reading Sense & Sensibility, it is my first time reading this edition (Chiltern edition). I was attracted to the gorgeous cover and though I already have a copy of the novel, I wanted this one as… Read More June ’23 Rereading: Day 7 – Sense & Sensibility Part 1

Book Review: A Place for Everything by Judith Flanders

June 6, 2023
A Place for Everything by Judith Flanders

I can’t quite remember how this book got onto my TBR list but I’m always down for some history (especially on subjects I never thought of before) so I borrowed A Place for Everything and started reading. If I was smarter/more hardworking, I would be writing this review in a way that the first letter… Read More Book Review: A Place for Everything by Judith Flanders

June ’23 Rereading Day 5: Weekend Recap

June 5, 2023

So I started this rereading project and then… promptly did not blog about it for two days. But what can I say? It was the weekend and I found that I wasn’t on my computer and I didn’t want to have the habit of opening my computer all the time so I decided to just… Read More June ’23 Rereading Day 5: Weekend Recap

June ’23 Rereading: Day 2 – On Ikigai

June 2, 2023

Yesterday, I did my month in review and mentioned that I was rereading The Little Book of Ikigai by Ken Mogi. Well, I managed to finish it today so I’ve been looking forward to rambling about the book now that I’m not writing a “proper” review. If you’re not aware, Mogi’s 5 pillars of Ikigai… Read More June ’23 Rereading: Day 2 – On Ikigai

Book Review: Gwelf – The Survival Guide by Larry MacDougall

May 31, 2023
Gwelf The Survival Guide by Larry MacDougall

You can tell that it took a while for me to finish my Wyrd & Wonder reads because they are all scheduled towards the end of the month! But this is the last one for now, and anyway it’s a book that I own which I erm… misplaced for perhaps two years before I found… Read More Book Review: Gwelf – The Survival Guide by Larry MacDougall

Book Review: The Midnight Folk by John Masefield

May 29, 2023
The Midnight Folk by John Masefield

I can’t quite remember how I heard about John Masefield (probably from a book about fantasy), but I’ve had The Midnight Folk on my TBR for quite a while, making it another good Wyrd & Wonder book to read. Written in 1927, almost a century ago, The Midnight Folk is a dreamlike tale about the… Read More Book Review: The Midnight Folk by John Masefield

Book Review: Children of the Nameless by Brandon Sanderson

May 26, 2023
Children of the Nameless by Brandon Sanderson

So a while back, my boyfriend downloaded this free ebook from Brandon Sanderson in an effort to get me more interested in the planes that exist within Magic: The Gathering. Since I was trying to quickly read more fantasy in time for Wyrd & Wonder this month, I finally picked up the book and was… Read More Book Review: Children of the Nameless by Brandon Sanderson
