I'm currently speed writing this post because guess who forgot there's 28 days this month. Me, that's who.
Most Anticipated YA Releases - March
Monday, 27 February 2017
Last month I posted a young adult releases of February, so I thought I'd do it again. This is by no means all the releases of March. Just a few that I'm looking forward to the most.
Holding up the universe by Jennifer Niven || Review
Sunday, 26 February 2017
I read this book for the #bookentine read-a-thon. Although I did a wrap up for that, I just knew I needed to write a full review for this book because I just have so many feelings about it. I'd heard a lot about Jennifer Niven and her other book 'all the bright places'. I was actually more interested in reading this one though, and I am so glad I finally did!

My Anxiety.
Saturday, 25 February 2017
I've wanted to write this post for such a long time but I'm not sure how to word it, I want it to sound eloquent and perfect but I know it probably won't. I've never written anything this personal before and I don't want this to be to deep or anything but I think this is a really important topic.

Who Am I? || TAG
Friday, 24 February 2017
It's time for a tag post. I've done two tag posts before (I think) but those were both book related tags. This one's a little different because it's all about me! I saw this tag on Tasya's blog The Literary Huntress. I wasn't technically tagged to do this post but it looked really fun and I'm a sucker for quizzes so I decided to do it anyway!

Popular Authors that i've never read
Friday, 17 February 2017
I was looking through my goodreads shelf today and realised that I have a lot of the books by the same authors that I've never read anything by. Some of these authors are amazingly popular as well and I have no excuse as to why I've not read any of their books!

A List Of Cages By Robin Roe || REVIEW
Monday, 13 February 2017
Okay. If you haven't already read this book then you need to. I know it's been getting a lot of attention recently but for GOOD reason. One of my main reasons for picking this up was because of the friendship in it. To be honest I was a bit fed up with reading about romance and I have been dying to read a good friendship novel. Boy was this it...
DISCUSSION: Comment Guilt
Saturday, 11 February 2017
Being a blogger I of course love getting comments on my posts. It's so amazing to feel like someone has really appreciated your post and that they've taken the time out of their day to comment. I honestly get so excited when I see a new comment on one of my posts.

A Quiet Kind Of Thunder by Sara Barnard || REVIEW
Thursday, 9 February 2017
So I'm going to start this by saying if you haven't read this book then you need to...like right now. I've seen this book mentioned so many times but as soon as I read the synopsis I knew that I had to read it. It's based around a girl who has extreme anxiety and selective mutism. This was such an important factor to me picking this up as I have anxiety myself, and love reading about people who struggle with some of the same issues as me.

Top 5 Wednesday - Book Trends I'm Tired Of
Wednesday, 8 February 2017
Top 5 Wednesday is a weekly meme created by Gingerreadslainey over on Youtube. There is also a Goodreads group that shows the upcoming T5W subjects - here. This weeks subject is 'Book trends I'm tired of'. Just a quick disclaimer, some of the trends I'm tired of might be one's you love and vice versa so please don't take any offence!
Series I Haven't Read/Finished
Tuesday, 7 February 2017
I was looking through my TBR list on Goodreads the other day and I realised how many series I've added to it that I've never actually started or I've read the first book but then never carried on with the series. It surprised me to be honest because these are series that so many people swear by and love. I'm going to share a few with you (I say a few because there is way more than you could possibly imagine).
Young Adult Releases for February 2017
Friday, 3 February 2017
I've decided that at the start of every month I'll make a list of some of the new YA releases. I'm always looking at new releases and thought this could be an easier way for some of you to find some new books. I won't be posting the synopsis of the books on this post but if you click the the title of the book or the cover it will take you to the Goodreads page for that book. So without further ado here's the new YA releases for February!
Made You Up by Francesca Zappia || REVIEW
Thursday, 2 February 2017
I can't exactly remember how I came across Made You Up by Francesca Zappia, but I knew that I had to read this. Reading about mental health problems is something that really interests me (probably because I'm doing a psychology course at university). I can't quite explain to you why, but I feel as though it gives me an insight into the lives of living with different mental health conditions that I otherwise will probably never understand completely.

January Wrap Up
Wednesday, 1 February 2017
So January is over and to my shock I've actually had a really good reading month! This year I made a vow to myself to read more and so far it's going well. Last year I hardly read anything at all, I kept adding books to my TBR list and just never getting to them, I just had no motivation. I decided to re-start my blog and I feel like it's really helped my motivation to keep reading. So anyway, here is my wrap up for January!
