Since Monday was the day of lurrrrrve, we decided to recommend ten amazing romance novels that we absolutely love. Bec has got five historical romance recs for you and I’ve got five contemporary romance recs. Contemporary romance recs Since it’s only been two months since I did my favourite books of 2021 post, which was […]
Happy Chinese New Year (or Lunar New Year)! This is my favourite time of the year – I have such fond childhood memories of celebrating it with my family. Fun fact – I also used to do lion dancing as a teenager, so every New Year was always so festive and full of fun! For […]
Happy new year everyone! I’m pretty sure I’m not alone in seeing the back of 2020..let’s just hope that 2021 will be better. I thought I would do a short round-up of some of my unexpected favourite reads in 2020. This might be surprising, but I don’t actually review every single book I read, so […]
