Hello! I hope you’re well 🤗 May has been a rather wet one, so I’ve not done as much as usual. Unfortunately that also includes reading-wise too, haha. I finished Empire of the Damned by Jay Kristoff this month, and oh my gosh, it was incredible! And then sent me into a bit of a Continue reading
About Me
Books and food enthusiast. I discovered a love for reading in my late teens, so you’ll see me catching up on older series quite often. I also love to travel around the UK, where I live, and picking up some crafty hobbies – I hope to share snippets of this amongst all the book content. Other interests include gaming, podcasts, drinking too much tea, and trying to personify autumn.
