It wasn’t what I thought it was but I still enjoyed it a lot. I love Richard Osman but normally I don’t just read a celebrities book just because I like them, I never read autobiographies and the couple of times I have it’s been because of the person is something more than just a…
I liked this book. A couple of weeks ago I read The Beach by Alex Garland and in that review I said I didn’t like the idea of untrustworthy but I think the problem is I didn’t like the Beach in particular. Lee Durkee does such a good job at making Lou feel interesting and…
So last week I did a post about good books to read over halloween for adults and I thought this week it would be a good idea to go through some spooky books for toddlers to read over Halloween. I think bedtime stories and reading with kids is such an important thing so I wanted…
So today is bookshop day and I knew I just had to do something to commemorate the day. So I want to talk about what bookshop day and Books Are My Bag is as well as some really interesting bookshops in the UK and shops you can still order from even now. Books Are My…
So spooky session is one day away and I thought with fewer people going to parties this year it would be a good idea to talk about some spooky books that are good to read right now. I love spooky books and honestly I haven’t read many books that have truly scared me but maybe…

I was given a copy of the E-Book by the Author in exchange for an honest review. And I didn’t like this book but I do think the author had great potential. The Spirit in the Crypt is Alexander Lound’s first ever novel and I can definitely see that in the writing though I think…
Before I fully get into the review I need to give a really big disclosure, this book deals with a lot of deep shit. That includes racism, Islamophobia, Xenophobia and more, both verbal and physical. So if this is something you’re not comfortable with please don’t read this book. I really liked this book but…
And I liked this book but not as much as I wanted to. The beach is one of my all time favourite films and this book is as good as that but I just had some issues with it, I want to go over both the ups and downs with you today. But first… What’s…
