I managed to read four books this week, which is quite good for me. I only have 11 books left to read from my birthday before I’m back to reading the books that have been piling up in my bedroom. I am trying to be on a book ban until April – as I reckon…

36. The Girl Who Walked On Air by Emma Carroll
This was another book I got for my birthday and the last Emma Carroll book I have to read 😦 Synopsis (as found on the back of the book) is as follows: Ladies and Gentlemen, Boys and Girls! We bring you the sensational story of Louise Reynolds, whose dream is to be a circus showstopper….
35. In Darkling Wood by Emma Carroll
This was another Birthday book by The Queen of Historical Fiction, Emma Carroll. Synopsis (as found on back of book) is as follows: Monday 11th November. A Day To Remember. A middle-of-the-night phone call brings news that could save Alice’s brother’s life… Back in 1918, the War over, another girl awaits her brother’s save return…
34. The Surface Breaks by Louise O’Neill
I got this book for my Birthday. It is a book I have seen featured a lot in other reviews and instagram pages and it looked like it would be a good read. I’m into these books that tell a re-imagining of a classic story. Synopsis (as taken from the back of the book) is…
Weekend Catch Up
I feel like this statement is true for a lot of us bibliophiles. I am still surrounded by books that I need to read but I am slowly making my way through them and trying not to buy more books when I have so many to read. I have almost finished reading the books I…
33. Lost Boy by Christina Henry
This was another birthday book. Having just read ‘The Mermaid’ by Christina Henry, I was excited to dive into another retelling of a classic story. Synopsis (as found on back of book) is as follows: There is one version of my story that everyone knows. And then there is the truth. Once I loved a…
32. Strange Star by Emma Carroll
This was another book that I got for my birthday. I have become a bit obsessed with Emma Carroll since reading ‘Secrets of a Sun King’, she is effortless in her writing and has the ability to draw me out of whatever I’m doing and let me sink within the words of the book. Synopsis…
Weekend Catch Up
Another week has come and gone and quite honestly this was a week for extreme highs and lows. Coming skiing, you obviously want to do as much skiing as possible and I had to come to terms with the fact that I wouldn’t be able to ski. I had under anticipated how much my inflammed…
31. The Storm Keeper’s Island by Catherine Doyle
This was another birthday book, one from my Mum and Dad. I just thought it sounded really interesting and felt like it needed to be read. Synopsis (as taken from the back of the book) is as follows: When Fionn Boyle sets foot on Arranmore Island it begins to stir beneath his feet… Once in…
Day Four, Tignes
I have now hit the halfway point of the holiday. Yesterday was a blue sky day, meaning that the slopes were busy and the queues for the ski lifts chaotic. I completely underestimated how difficult I would find this skiing holiday. I think I was in denial about how bad my inflammed kneecap can hurt….
