It has been a while...

Yes, it has been a while... I went into somewhat of a reading slump towards the second half of 2015 and sadly let other aspects of my life take over. But this year, I am keen to get into control of my life, to do things I love and improve my health.

Here are 5 simple things I'd like to achieve this year:
1. Read more books (I will achieve my 30 book reading challenge!)
2. Practice yoga/meditation
3. Eat healthy
4. Keep a clean environment (home & work)
5. Be more organised

I wouldn't call these New Year's resolutions; conversely a step towards making a better me. These are things I want to integrate into my life and continue past 2016.

Do you have any goals you'd like to achieve?

Top Ten Tuesday (07/04): Top Characters You'd Like To Check In With

Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly meme hosted by The Broke and the Bookish . Check them out if you haven't already! Top Characters You'd Like to Check in With This week's TTT is about characters from series that have ended and you would like to see their life post the series. I'll add standalone books as well. I won't make the ten this week *sad face*. Here's my list and in no particular order: 1. Hermione Granger from Harry Potter . I can just imagine Hermione doing great things (maybe like Emma Watson has been with 'he for she'). 2. Ella from Ella Enchanted . I love Ella so much. 3. Maia from The Goblin Emporer . A recently read book. I just loved Maia and hope his rule has continued successfully and that he's made many acquaintances he can truly call friends. 4. Hazel from The Fault in Our Stars . I nearly didn't put Hazel down just because I thought it felt mean. She would still be struggling with her canc...

Top Ten Tuesday (03/03): Top Ten Books You Would Classify As All Time Favourite Books

Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly meme hosted by The Broke and the Bookish . It's fun to do and interesting to read what other bloggers have to say as well! Join in the fun! Top Ten Books You Would Classify as ALL TIME FAVOURITE BOOKS From the Past 5 Years 1. The Night Circus by Erin Morgenstern. This is the most recent in this list. I loved how Erin Morgenstern wove the story around the characters and the circus. She also has a wonderful writing style that just makes you see, smell, hear and feel what she is writing, like you're right there. I wrote a review on this here . 2. Where She Went by Gayle Forman. I really enjoyed If I Stay and literally bought and read Where She Went straight after I finished it. I wasn't expecting to love it as much as I did. This book is from Adam's perspective and he really does have a lot of sadness, doubt and anguish. Gayle Forman does a great job portraying Adam's feelings. Gut-wrenchingly beautiful, is al...

Top Ten Tuesday (24/03): Top Ten Books from my Childhood That I Would Like to Revisit

Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly meme created and hosted by The Broke and the Bookish . It's a fun way to make bookish lists and find out what others have on their lists as well! Top Ten Books from my Childhood That I Would Like to Revisit It's late Monday night and while I probably would (and could) remember so many more, below is my list for this week. Unfortunately not 10 but do series count? 1. Ella Enchanted by Gail Carson Levin. My favourite book. Ever. 2. Nancy Drew series by Carolyn Keene. I was OBSESSED with Nancy Drew. I think I read pretty much every book up to certain point. I had nearly every single book too. 3. Matilda by Roald Dahl. I felt such a strong affinity with Matilda, being the bookworm she is. A great character and a lovely children's book. 4. The BFG by Roald Dahl. Another great children's book. You know what, I probably probably every Roald Dahl book should be listed... 5. Narnia...
