Chess has never been my favourite game, as I lack the strategy and planning skills for it. However, this is a pretty cool tag. Some of the questions feel pretty unique to me.
Chapter Sampler Review | Pumpkinheads by Rainbow Rowell and Faith Erin Hicks
**Disclaimer: I received a free chapter sampler of Pumpkinheads by Rainbow Rowell and Faith Erin Hicks from First Second Books through NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you to them.
Pumpkinheads is a YA contemporary graphic novel that is hitting shelves on August 27th. As this was a chapter sampler, I do not have a full rating for you, however, I did enjoy it.
Writing Wednesday | A Story About Three Siblings
This week’s story prompt is ‘A Story About Three Siblings.’ I hope you like it!
The story is below the cut.
Tag Tuesday | Get to Know the Blogger
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
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.
Tag Tuesday | I Have Never…
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
**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
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
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
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.
