Eek apologies for missing last week's Top 3 Thursday on Audiobooks! I've been a bit absent but I can't wait to catch up on your posts and get some new audiobooks on my 'to listen' list! To be honest, my list probably would have been the Harry Potter series, though I've just started 'Any Ordinary … Continue reading Books that lived up to the hype | Top 3
Not going to lie, I'm heavily relying on my Goodreads stats to bring you a semi-accurate list this week! 😛 Good luck to anyone who doesn't use Goodreads to track their reading, unless you have a far superior memory to me which, let's be real, probably isn't that hard! That said, I don't know that this … Continue reading Longest Books I’ve Read | Top 3

I love reading about genuine friendships in books. Not ones that have to blossom in to romance, or friendships that feel too good to be true, but those friendships where you can feel the true bond between characters. This week is dedicated to those friendships. 1. Hawthorne & Morrigan - Nevermoor These two are so … Continue reading Bookish Friendships | Top 3
I have been loving being part of a book club lately! Well, for the last year or so - I guess that's not 'lately'...

Here are some of mine, … Continue reading Book Club Reads | Top 3
I honestly don't really know what my usual genre is any more! I'd still say I'm a contemporary girl at heart though, with contemporary YA as my easy-read go-to. So you won't find those below! 1. Illuminae - Amie Kaufman and Jay Kristoff Honestly I thought this book would be impossible for me to read … Continue reading Books Outside My Usual Genre | Top 3
I can't believe I missed Top 3 Thursday last week! I did love reading all of your posts though and seeing what movies adapted from books you weren't fans of! Had I done mine, it would've 100% included a controversial choice of 'The Help' (I turned the movie off, the book was way better!)! Anyway, … Continue reading Villains/Antagonists | Top 3
There are some books that have stuck with my from my teenage years, and others I've read recently that I wish had been around when I was growing up. Being able to read about teenagers struggling with the same things you do, and seeing positive representation in books is so important (and I'll forever be … Continue reading Books I’d recommend to teens | Top 3
Happy Thursday all! We're nearly at the weekend again - how good. This week's topic is pretty straight forward, and I see a lot of fantasy books around the 'gram so I'm happy to be giving some love to a few favourite contemporary reads today. It's a HARD topic though because there are so many … Continue reading Contemporary Books | Top 3
One of the things I love about reading is getting to dive into a new world, meet new characters, and broaden my worldview. Whether it's reading a book by an author with a different background to myself, or set in a different country, or characters with different views or struggles to my own, it's a … Continue reading Books that taught me something new | Top 3
