TOP FIVE: FAVOURITE AUTHORS I DISCOVERED IN 2019

TOP FIVE: FAVOURITE AUTHORS I DISCOVERED IN 2019

2019 was mostly a year of me reading a bunch of new to me authors. Some of which wrote my favourite books of last year. Even if their books didn’t make my favourites of the year, all of these authors were able to write their way into my heart and left an impression on me with their books, one way or another

TOP FIVE: BOOKS OVER 500 PAGES

TOP FIVE: BOOKS OVER 500 PAGES

Hello book lovers! In honour of Tome Topple, I wanted to revisit my favourite books that are over 500 pages for this weeks Top 5 Wednesday.

To be honest, I didn’t feel like a had a massive pool of books to choose from for this topic. I rarely find myself reading larger books because I’m a slower reader. However it seems to be a theme (particularly with some YA Fantasy series) that these books are just getting bigger and bigger with each instalment in a series. So I can’t always opt out!

The measurement I used when trying to decide what books would make the list went a little something like asking myself a very simple question… “would I put myself through this 500 something page book again?” Because if I’m being real, I find that long books are rarely very fun, especially when complex magic systems or worlds are involved. Which could be something of a phase for my reading at the moment.

However, the books that made this list are the exceptions to that. And if you’re wondering why, well it’s because most of them had really great romances in them. (What can I say I’m a simple gal, all it takes is a good romance!)

Now onto my favourite books over 500 pages!

Hello everyone! Halloween is just a day away and so today I’m looking at books with my favourite spooky settings. In most of the cases, the books have inspired my favourite spooky settings.

CHARACTERS I’D COSPLAY

CHARACTERS I’D COSPLAY

Hello readers! It’s that time of the year where I live vicariously through people in the US who participate in Halloween (because Australia just does not). Honestly it hurts my soul, and I would definitely use my sewing machine more if costuming/cosplaying was a bigger thing here. But nevertheless I still have an ever-growing list of the leading ladies that I would love to dress up as.
