Do You Save Books for Certain Times of the Year? –A Bookish Discussion

Now that it is finally October and it’s actually starting to feel like fall, I wanted to talk about seasonal reading. In particular I'd love to know if anyone else collects books to read at particular times of the year. Before this year I honestly don’t think the season affected my reading habits too much…

Do You Stop Reading Books You Don’t Enjoy?—Bookish Discussion

Another bookish quirk that I hear people talk about is needing to finish a book regardless of how much they enjoy it. I know a few people who are absolute completionist and must finish a book once they have started, regardless of how much they enjoy it. I once even heard a story about a…

Do You Prefer Hardcover or Paperback Books?

I thought it would be a good time for another bookworm discussion! Do you have a preference between paperback books or hard covers? Personally, I tend towards paper back books mainly because of their price point. I find that the  money I can save per book, can add up quickly and can mean that I’m…

Do You Read Books with The Dust Jacket On?

This is going to be a quick post, but I’m really interested to hear a discussion about your reading habits! So, I’m currently reading a hardcover copy of Rivers of London, and as I always do, I took the dust jacket off my book in order to do my reading. This got me thinking about…

Bookworm Problems: Accidental All-Nighters

I have spent far too many nights as an accidental night owl as a result of my reading habits. In my What Type of Reader Are You post many people also seemed to be in this category, so I thought it would be fun to share my mental process when I accidentally stay up far…

My Thoughts on The Handmaid’s Tale

I just finished The Handmaid’s Tale by Margaret Atwood and I wanted to talk about it with you guys. This book is a classic, and incredibly influential so I don’t really feel as though my personal review would add much to the conversation. Instead I thought I’d just write some of my thoughts on my…

My Favourite Places to Read

I am a bit of a creature of habit when it comes to reading. I read pretty much exclusively in my bed. Which I know you’re not really meant to do, as it apparently lessens the associations one has with sleep and their bed, but it’s so comfy. I already have an owl-like sleep pattern,…

Bookworm Confession: The struggle between books and money

Obviously my title is quite dramatic and to be clear I’m being quite tongue in cheek. But, I think this is a struggle that many people who love to read go through. I often find myself trying to budget in more books because I love reading, but to be honest they aren't actual necessity. I…

Bookworm Problems: Cat interruptions

My cat Winnie does not understand why I pay attention to things that are not her. She is also a bit of a jerk. So, needless to say she makes reading, blogging and Instagram…interesting. I thought I’d compile a group of cat related reading interruptions because she’s pretty cute, and I’m sure this is something…
