2022 Book Summary
Another Year. Another Summary. 2022 was a strange year in many respects. I read more books but turned fewer pages and picked up (and became a bit obsessed with) a new genre – one that I do intend on reading more of in 2023 – Orc Smut – but, I also aim to get back […]

Monthly Wrap up – Nov 2022
Well, in terms of reading, blogging and generally being present on WordPress in November. I got pretty much nothing. The Orc’s Princess – Poppy Kildare I enjoyed this series more than I should probably admit, but this one wasn’t my favourite. The female protagonist just wasn’t my cup of tea; but that’s down to me […]

WWW+W Wednesday – 19th Oct
What are you reading? Rogal Dorn: The Emperor’s Crusader – Gav Thorpe I’m about a quarter of the way through this book and I kinda hate it. The meeting of four Primarchs in one large scale campaign should be really awesome. But it’s not. It’s so dry and dull and ugh, I might DNF it […]

Reading Review for the first 6 months-ish of 2022
I wanted to use this year to be a bit more accountable for what I read and how I report on the blog and that sort of thing. So, here we are, 6 months in and what have I learned? That reading comes and goes in waves like a fickle creature and being accountable is […]

3W Wednesday – 2nd March
What are you reading? The Handmaids Tale – Margaret Atwood I picked up The Handmaid’s Tale from the local library after watching the first series. It’s always good to compare sources between books and TV series. Currently, I am enjoying the TV series more as I am finding the writing style of the book a […]

Monthly Wrap Up – Feb 2022
It feels like the months are flying by and I’m falling behind more and more. I didn’t even think about this post until I realized it was Pancake Day! As with last month, I am behind with reviews and have a few outstanding, but at least I have been reading… a bit. Snapshot – Josie […]

3W Wednesday – 23rd Feb
What are you reading? Claws of the Genestealer – Cavan Scott This came about due to a conversation with BooshHammer on Instagram – they posted about the first book in this series. I offered to read the second one along with him, as these books are actually pretty great introductions to the Warhammer 40k setting […]

Monthly Wrap up – Jan 2022
Where, exactly, did that month go? I still have two outstanding reviews to write. I am planning to get my fingers flowing throughout the day, so fingers crossed it’ll go okay and I won’t feel so guilty for leaving reviews hanging! The War of Powers – Robert E Vardeman & Victor Milan A classic fantasy story […]

What are you reading? The Thousand Eyes – A.K. Larkwood This is one of my NetGalley approvals, released mid-Feb. It’s actually the second book in a series, which I didn’t realize when requesting, so we shall see how I get on with it. The synopsis made it sound pretty interesting, so I am looking forward […]

2021 Book Summary
The advantage of using an external site like GoodReads is that it does all the hard work for you when it comes to summaries. It stores all the data and keeps it handy when it comes to doing the yearly write-up. I started using Goodreads right at the end of 2019, so my data for […]
