Iconic movies I probably should have seen by now

I wanted to post something a little bit different today, so I thought I'd have a look at Empire's 100 Greatest Movies list and see which out of the top 50 I haven't seen yet... this could be interesting. I got this post idea form the lovely Orangutan Librarian! 30 might seem like a lot …

Films I wish were books

  Ages ago I read a fantastic post by Nicole at What a Different a Word Makes where she talked about movies she wished were books, and I thought that was a great idea! So, I've nicked it and made my own version! Obviously, being the reader that I am, I've chosen a mix of horror …

(Non-bookish) Some of my favourite movies, part 1

Doing something a little bit different today. Book aren't the only things I'm passionate about, I also really, really love movies. Over my 20 years of being alive, I've watched a whole damn lot of films. You'll probably notice that a lot of these movies aren't particularly modern, and that's because my mum is a …

(Non-bookish) Get Out, directed by Jordan Peele, movie review

After months of wanting to see Get Out, I finally went to the cinema and watched it this weekend. I was very worried that the hype this movie was receiving was going to make this a complete let down but oh boy was I wrong. This lived up to my expectations perfectly, it was maybe even …

I’ve been seeing this Cluedo challenge going around and it sounded like a bit of fun, so here’s my attempt 😌
An age ago @cannyreads tagged me in the #SplitSpineStack and then @whatellisreadnext's beautiful post at the beginning of the month prompted me to finally give it a go! 🚫⁠
Three short story collections I have yet to read!

A nice picture of my shelves. That’s it. That’s the post 🥰
