Vitriol by Bex Hogan: Part Four

Today’s post is one I’ve been super excited to share, because it’s taking us back to the world of VIPER and VENOM by Bex Hogan! If you haven’t already found the previous three parts of the treasure hunt, definitely go and do that now so you’re up to speed in time for today’s update: part four!

A Little Update

It’s been a little while since I blogged, so I wanted to hop on to give you a little update on how things are! I’ve been doing lots of reading and writing, and every time I look up it seems like another week has suddenly whisked by!

A-Spec August!

I love a good readathon - especially one that means that I read more widely and discover new books. And that’s exactly what I wanted to do off the back of reading Loveless by Alice Oseman last month. There doesn’t seem to be much ace/aro/demi rep out there, so as soon as I saw A-Spec August was happening, I knew I had to take part!

It's Time For.. the #Finishathon !

Well, hello books I have not yet finished! I’m usually pretty good at reading one book at a time, but since everyone has been spending way more time at home, I’ve been reading way more and so have more unfinished books than usual! Cue taking part in this readathon…

The Reading Rush 2020!

I’ve heard of the Reading Rush before, but usually part-way through so I’ve not participated. This year, though, I remembered it existed in time to get properly prepped for the prompts! And so here are my plans for the Reading Rush 2020…

Books That Make Me Smile

I was so happy when I saw this prompt, because I have been reading so many joyous books over the past few months! This is basically my list of happy comfort reads, and ones I’d recommend if you need cheering up or just want to enjoy all the happy and heartwarming vibes!

Authors I’ve Read the Most Books By

I really liked the prompt for this week’s Top Ten Tuesday - an excuse to flail about the authors I’ve read the most of! If you like this post, I also did my auto-buy authors post here a few weeks ago. I found this a really interesting exercise because of course I’ve ordered this by number of books read rather than how much I love them. Intriguing!

My June Reading Wrap-Up

June was SUCH a good month for reading! (Although, less successful on the readathon front. Oh dear me.) But honestly, I read multiple books this month that I think will be eternal faves, and I’m so happy whenever I come across books like that - and to read multiple like that in one month was such a treat!

The Mid-Year Book Freakout Tag!

Why yes, I am doing the tag you’re already sick of seeing… It’s the Mid-Year Book Freakout tag! It was really lovely, actually, to look back over what I’ve read so far this year. Lockdown has been great for one thing, and it’s how many books I’ve read!

Here’s the highlights…

My June Book Haul!

June has been a MONTH for buying and borrowing books, oh my goodness. I got very carried away. So much so that I felt I needed to collate them all here in a blog post! I also got the most humungous stack of loaner books from the fantastic Fox Benwell, and I’ll pop my faves in here, as that stack could be a whole separate blog post, it’s so epic!

Here’s what I got in June…
