Another week, another quick tea review! I’ve been thoroughly enjoying the lack of pressure involved in these quick tea reviews, though I don’t actually know how much I’m “learning” about Chinese tea given the free and easy approach! But so far, I’ve found out that the tea samples I received are either white tea or… Read More Quick Chinese Tea Reviews #2
I went to find Briana’s review of this book because it was how it got on my radar and it hit me that I left this book on my TBR list for 6 years. And I’m sure this isn’t the oldest book on my TBR list. But oh well, I am not systematic enough to… Read More Book Review: The Fellowship by Philip Zaleski and Carol Zaleski
So… I’m still finding books from long ago that I’ve not read because I was looking through my bookshelves and came across this edition of The Maze Runner! It’s probably a gift edition or a collector’s edition, given that it’s hardcover in a slipcase, but sadly it’s already slightly foxed. Anyway, on to the story!… Read More Book Review: The Maze Runner by James Dashner
After three months, I am back with more quick tea reviews! Ethel and I finally had time to meet and she passed me alllll the Lupicia teas that I’ve been missing. Since I started caring less about the aesthetics of drinking tea (which is probably because I stopped taking pictures for IG), I brought my… Read More Lupicia Quick Tea Reviews #5
I can’t remember exactly when, but a few years ago I listened to a BBC podcast called “The Missing Cryptoqueen”. It was about the OneCoin scam and it tried to track the origins of its missing founder – Ruja Ignatova. I enjoyed the podcast very much, but didn’t really follow what happened after so I… Read More Book Review: The Missing Cryptoqueen by Jamie Bartlett
I was looking for a lighter read after my spate of non-fiction books and came across this book which has been languishing on my TBR. I found this from Em’s very positive review of it (if you see this, Em, I miss your posts!) and put it on my TBR list where it has sat… Read More Book Review: Changeling (The Oddmire #1) by William Ritter
Hello friends! August was a short month for me – I had something on pretty much every Saturday so all the days felt like it was compressed together. In fact, towards the end of the month, I felt so busy I decided to take half the week off. I’ll probably continue on a more relaxed… Read More August in Review
Before the month ends, let me recap two baking classes that I managed to go for! I’ve actually not been baking much this year, so these classes are a tiny breath of fresh air that remind me how much I enjoy baking (and how tiring it can be). By the way, both classes were from… Read More 2 Baking Classes I Went For Recently
Is this sixth story the end of the Six Stories series??? I would hope not but I have to say that this is a fitting end to a series that I enjoyed SO MUCH. Six Stories has never shied away from difficult “cases” – a girl who murdered her family, a pop star accused of… Read More Book Review: Demon by Matt Wesolowski
I really, really can’t stay away from the Six Stories series. Deity is the fifth book in the series and I’ll probably finish the last book before the month is out! What can I say – this essentially has six long “chapters” and although I would ordinarily find the chapters long, each chapter/episode is so… Read More Book Review: Deity by Matt Wesolowski
