I’m certain that this year, there are even more exciting releases than usual.
I’ve shared posts on both Upcoming YA Releases and Upcoming Fantasy Releases but I haven’t yet talked about the new diverse releases I’m looking forward to and that I’ve been seeing all over Bookstagram.
So here are my top 10 diverse releases in the first half of 2021.
It is really difficult to find an effective work-life balance; one where we are getting tasks ticked off our lists, whilst not overworking.
But whether you’re reading this during lockdown or you regularly work from home (or you’re just looking for general tips to be more productive!), here are my top tips for being productive whilst working from home.
I recently wrote about how you can read more efficiently to reach your 2021 reading goals.
But today I wanted to look at the other side: that maybe this year your goal should actually be to read less.
In a world that focuses on mile long tbrs and list after list of goals, it’s almost unheard of to want to read less. But reading more slowly has a lot of benefits.
A 2002 survey found that 81% of people in America want to write a book (imagine how many people in the world that is!), so why haven’t they? The simple answer is because writing a book is no simple task.

I recently shared a list of my top 10 upcoming YA releases that I’m looking forward at the start of 2021.
With so many exciting fantasy novels coming out in the first few months of the year, I wanted to create a separate post for the fantasy releases I’m looking forward to the most at the start of 2021.
It’s a new year, and that can only mean one thing: a new chance to add EVEN MORE books to your tbr and ignore the ones already on your shelf.
So I’ve compiled a list of all the most exciting YA releases in the first few months of 2021!
This year, I’m attempting to write the year’s blog posts in one month.
Isn’t it what all of us dream of? Having all the work done ahead of time so we can focus on engaging and promoting? But bulking posts is only possible if you have a bulk of ideas.
Here are my 52 book blog post ideas so you can start planning for the whole year.
Winding staircases, vast libraries, old colleges and darkened hallways… The dark academia aesthetic has been rapidly growing over recent years, impacting fashion, literature and media.
Dark academia is a sub-genre that is growing rapidly. Usually, these books involve an academic setting, some kind of dark mystery and some pretty pretentious characters. Unlike light academia, dark academia focuses on darker themes (typically revolving around murder or some sort of crime).
This past year has been difficult in so many ways, but one positive for me (and so many others) has been having a lot more time to read.
But now that things are (slowly) returning to normal, how can we keep up the momentum to read more in the new year (whilst balancing that with work, family and other commitments)?
