I spend so much time talking about books that sometimes it’s really nice to switch up what I talk about on this blog.  So today, we’re going to talk about some things that I love/like that aren’t books!

Writing Wednesday | A Retelling of a Fairy Tale

08.07.2019 by Ashley // 2 Comments

Retellings as a genre is something that is a more recent love in my life.  However, when I wrote this prompt, I hadn’t really read very many of these.  That being said, I thought it was a pretty genius to write my own retelling as the prompt was ‘A Retelling of a Fairy Tale’, and I fairly quickly decided to do my own version of Red Riding Hood.

The story is below the cut.

One of my favourite games to play is Never Have I Ever, so this is a super fun tag for me to do today.  Normally, I’m not very good at it, as there are lot of things I have never done, but I’m thinking that I will have a better rate of have done when it comes to book.  Let’s find out below the cut!

Book Review | The Turn of the Key by Ruth Ware

08.02.2019 by Ashley // Leave a Comment

**Disclaimer: I received an advance reader’s copy of The Turn of the Key through NetGalley from Simon & Schuster Canada in exchange for an honest review.

The Turn of the Key by Ruth Ware is a mystery-thriller set in Scotland. It is written in a semi epistolary way, which was rather unique. The book releases on August 6th, 2019. I gave it 5 stars on GoodReads.

Ashley’s August TBR | NEWTs Readathon

08.01.2019 by Ashley // Leave a Comment

I am so excited for August because I’m participating in the NEWTs readathon, which is a continuation of the magical readathon.  So, this month’s TBR is dedicated to completing that so that I can try and pursue my chosen magical career which is: auror!  I asked for help deciding on my bookstagram and the vote was really close and that’s what I’m going for!  I will be prioritizing the NEWTs needed to become an auror.  However, I am a bit of a glutton for punishment so I think I’m going to set a tentative TBR for the rest of the prompts and challenge myself to see how much I can get read in August.  Keep in mind that this is all pretty flexible depending on what I can and can’t get. You’ll find my TBR below the cut.

Ashley’s July Wrap Up

07.31.2019 by Ashley // Leave a Comment

July was a crazy busy month for me! It was my first month of summer vacation and I had a bunch of stuff on the go: a garage sale, a wedding, camping, and helping my parents move! However, in between and around all those things I was able to get a bunch of reading done. I read 26 books in July. You can find my Wrap Up and brief reviews under the cut.

Ashley’s July Haul

07.30.2019 by Ashley // Leave a Comment

This was a month of bargains!  I found myself called by the siren that is Book Outlet!  I love this site so much because you can get some really good books for low prices.  I picked up a whole bunch of books from there, plus my Owl Crate, and most recently a trip to Indigo to pick up some sequels. You can find my haul under the cut.
