Hi, it’s Sabrina here!  Today I want to talk to you about six books that inspired me to try and pick up a new hobby - a.k.a. Six Times Sabrina Got Extremely Carried Away Fantasising About Her Future Because of a Book.  What I mean by this, is that the book had me daydreaming and…

Tough Choices With The Would You Rather Tag

Hey everyone! Today Vera and I are here to do the Would You Rather tag! We were tagged by the lovely Meeghan @ MeeghanReads - thank you! - and let me tell you: these questions were hard! Even so, we managed to answer them all, though I may have lost a little part of my…

Marvelous Music and Okay Books in Our July Wrap Up

Another month of 2020 is done and I for one, am glad that it’s over - which has pretty much been my attitude this whole year, to be honest!  I hope you’re all being as safe as you can and are looking out for the people around you too.  There’s so much going on in…

The Stuck At Home Book Tag, ft. What We’ve Been Doing During the Lockdown

At this point, many of us have been stuck inside our houses for months, and even though lockdowns and restrictions are being lifted in many countries (hopefully, slowly), it's unlikely that things will go back to normal anytime soon.

Post Ideas I’ve Scrapped

Hey everyone, it’s Sabrina 🙂  Today I want to talk a little bit about some blog post ideas that I’ve scrapped.  Not every idea is a winner, and though sometimes I can push through with an idea that I initially don’t think is great and end up with something I am proud of, there are…

Hey, it’s Sabrina!  Today I’m going to chat about some plot twists that I don’t like.  I’m specifically talking about these situations when they are framed as surprises, not just a part of the book’s entire concept.  I’m of course not going to talk about specific books in this post because I don’t want to…

{Mini Reviews} Two New Favorite YA Contemporaries

Hello friends! April was a lucky month for me, as I found not one, but two new favorites right after each other. Even better, they are YA Contemporaries, which is a genre I've been struggling with for a while. (Although, to be fair, I've said "I'm struggling with the genre but look what a cool…

Revisiting An Old Post: Do I Read What I Say I’m Going To?

Hi all!  It’s Sabrina and as some of you may know, I used to run a book blog on my own called Sabrina’s Stories.  I stopped blogging in early 2016 but to be honest, the end had been coming for a little while before that.  Anyway, today I thought I would revisit one of my…

Book Maths: This Book + This Book = This Book

Hello!  It’s Sabrina and today I have a post based off Youtube videos - specifically this one by Jen Campbell, who I guess I will never stop talking about.  I think the title sums the idea up pretty well, but basically I will be sharing three books at a time where one of them could…

Books With Artist Characters

Hi there!  It’s Sabrina and today I’m recommending you a bunch of books with artistic characters.  They’re mostly female and mostly main characters, but there’s a couple I couldn’t help slipping in there that don’t fit those qualifiers.  I’ve split the list into two - the first, and shortest, section is books where the art…
