CWA Dagger 2021 Longlist – Sapere Books Historical

Up till now I have felt book awards weren’t for me. My taste just didn’t seem to match those of the judges and most of the time I disliked the winners. This made me feel out on the ‘hype’ of being able to read a longlist etc… and then I came across the CWA Daggers……

Reading Resolutions Update

We are already a quarter into the year, so I decided to check on how I am doing with my reading resolutions. Read 72 books… I have read 68 books so far. I’m okay. Finish/Catch up with more series than I start… I have started 15 new series. I have also finished up 7, and……

My 2021 Reading Resolutions

Another year, another set of reading resolutions. These are going to be fairly similar to last year, but some of them come with a twist. Read 72 books… last year I read 220 books. I highly doubt I will reach that amount again, and I would like to read less actually. I am planning to……

2020 in books

Things I Watched…

I don’t generally like to watch movies and series. They have to be Really good to keep my attention. But The Husband and I have been watching some things recently and I thought I would share with you which I enjoyed, and which I didn’t…. So yeah, I rewatched The Fellowship of the Ring. It is……

How are you? + What I’ve been watching

I was going to post a review today, but then I ended up not having all that much to say on the book. So I have decided to do a bit of a check in instead. A few weeks ago I wrote a post (I could use a (virtual) hug…) in which I told you……

I got mail…

The other day I got two very exciting packages in the post, which I just wanted to share with you. The first is my Michael J. Sullivan book. I supported his Kickstarter for Age of Death which included the ebook 3 months early, and now I also received the physical copy. It also came with a……
