How To Get Out Of A Reading Slump

It feels like ages since I've posted. I've been in a massive reading slump, but now I'm out of it!!!!!!!!!! so anyways, how d you get out of a reading slump? ✨By reading this ✨ . 1) COMPETITION I'm to fucking competitive for my own good, to the point where I have read awful books that were a complete waste of time, just so I could finish it before my friends... If you have friends who read, or even have a goodreads account and can see what other people are reading so you can beat them, it'll help make you read. 2) SWITCH THINGS UP If I'm getting bored of reading actual books, I'll use audio-books and vice versa. As well as this, even though it's not technically books, finding a good podcast can rlly help 3) RE-READ BOOKS If you have a book you love and it's been a while since you last read it, DO IT ALL OVER AGAIN. 4) FAVORITE AUTHOR? If you have an author who you love, it makes it much easier to start a book and feel invested in it, just because hop...

Breathless by Jennifer Niven (review)

This was apart of my tbr authors list  so I was like, "Imma do a review" 'cause why not. So first of, Jennifer Niven is the author of "All the Bright Places" which has been made into a netflix movie and that was how I discovered her and her books. To be honest, I really do a pprop riate "All the Bright Places" 'cause it got me through some dark times when I was just struggling and it made me feel like I wasn't alone but I do have to say that "Holding up the universe" is probably her best book and because of that it became fairly obvious that she was a GOOD author. Like most people who have one big hit... let's just say it's for a reason... BUT Jennifer did not disappoint. I wanted to read more, and then she did disappoint... 😮‍💨. So basically this girl who's name I don't remember, lets just call her Jenny, goes to an island after her mother and farther get divorced. She's leaving her best friends behind, her dad ...

How to pick which audio book to buy

LOOK, I GET IT, this seems REALLY boring BUT please if your not going to read the whole thing JUST LISTEN TO THE SAMPLE and you'll find out why if you actually decide to read this. so, welcome back to this blog and if u read my shit often u'll know that I'm very much into free audiobooks. HOWEVER, when you start getting to the more niche books, that's when u need audible. At some point I will do a guide to how audible works and what app works best but for now it's just going to be, what you need to think about for whatever audiobook so you don't waste £8. There are two situations where these don't really apply and thats: 1. If you have already listened to the free version and now want to be able to listen to it offline 2. If you have started listening to an audiobook series and really want to finish it but a certain audiobook is'nt available freely so you need to buy it. Otherwise, PLEASE READ THIS. So obviously you have seen a book recommended somewher...

Heart Bones by Colleen Hoover (best quotes)

“Summers are for focusing on today and today only” “I'm overdosing on good things which only means I'll eventually have to go through the withdrawal” “I’m drowning, Samson. And you’re the one holding me underwater.” “Samson makes me wonder if there’s a difference between a liar and a person who tells lies to protect someone from the truth.” “I know what love is, because I spent my whole life knowing what it isn’t.” “Secrets are my only form of currency.” “There are two different kinds of wrong. The wrong that stems from weakness and the wrong that stems from strength. You made that choice because you were strong and needed to survive. You didn’t make that choice because you were weak.” “Not depressing. We’re deep. There’s a difference.” “Wet eyes and a dry heart.” “When someone shows you who they are, believe them the first time.” “Look at us. Two lonely kids who slipped through all the cracks, but then climbed right back up to the top of the world.” “I kind of like that Samson...
