I’m a huge fan of audiobooks and have been since I was a young child. I remember laying in front of our giant entertainment cabinet putting little cassette tapes into a bulky box so that a stranger could read to me. From there it became CDs, and now I can download them digitally through […]
Erin tagged me to do this ages ago when I was operating my own book blog. I’ve since realized that I am absolute trash at running my own book blog, and have defected to The Book Nut, but I’m pretty sure I never got around to this. I have a little spare time today, so […]

I absolutely loved this book. It delivers on the promise of “Doctor Who meets Guardians of the Galaxy” (which are two of my most loved things!) So, imagine that in the future that time travel is not only possible, but it’s pretty much the number one business. Children are trained from a young age […]

At this event fans debated on one side or the other of the major question of that time: Severus Snape, good or evil? Alongside this event Borders also published a […]
When I heard Netflix was releasing an adaptation of Lemony Snicket’s A SERIES OF UNFORTUNATE EVENTS I admit I was a little wary. But wouldn’t you be? After the disastrous mess that was the film adaptation I couldn’t help but feel worried. Especially as I saw that the aesthetic of the show was going to […]
