I’m a few days late to this particular Weekly Wednesday, but I couldn’t skip it because this week’s question is books set near where I live. And I live near Exeter, in Devon, which means there is one extremely obvious place to begin. 🐕 The Hound of the Baskervilles by …

What book do you think deserves more love but flies under the radar?

Currently Reading: curses, crowns & catastrophic decisions
This week’s reading is another slightly ridiculous pairing on paper: Cursed Bunny by Bora Chung and The Plantagenets by Dan Jones. Surreal short fiction translated from Korean on one side; several centuries of medieval English monarchy on the other. Honestly, this is exactly the sort of reading week I enjoy. …
July Wrap-Up + August Reading Intentions
I’ve realised over the last few months that my monthly goals have quietly changed. They’ve become less about productivity and more about paying attention. July wasn’t a huge reading month – I finished two books – but it was still full of stories. Stories on the page, stories in Palia, …
July 2026 Reading Wrap-Up | Not Every Book Is Going to Be a Favourite
If June was a reminder that a full life is better than a full TBR, then July was a reminder that not every book is going to be my book. On paper, the numbers aren’t particularly impressive. I finished two books, read 592 pages, and my average rating for the …
June 2026 Reading Wrap Up
A Full Life Is Better Than a Full TBR For a long time, I measured a reading month by one thing: how many books I finished. Three books? That would have felt disappointing. Now, looking back at June, I don’t see a disappointing month at all. I see one that …
What I’m Reading and Thinking About | June 7, 2026
This week marks the end of my academic year, which means for the first time in months I don’t have an assignment hanging over my head. It’s a very strange feeling. I’m not entirely convinced I’ve remembered how to relax yet, but I’m looking forward to finding out. 📚 What …
February 2026 Reading Wrap-Up
The One-Book Month February was… quieter. Not in life – absolutely not in life – but in reading. I finished one book. And instead of pretending that didn’t happen, or dressing it up as something hyper-productive, I want to be honest about it – because this year I’m trying to …
When Old Favourites Don’t Hit the Same (and It Feels Weirdly Existential)
You ever have that moment where you pick up a book by an author you used to love – like, capital-L LOVE, formative-level love – and it just… doesn’t hit anymore? You sit there blinking at the page like, wait, when did this happen? when did I stop vibing with …
📚 October Reading Wrap-Up… almost
October was… a lot. Between uni starting (!!!), work chaos, and a migraine that just would not quit, reading was more of a background hum than a main feature. But hey – two books finished is progress, and I’ll take that as a win. 📖 What I Read The Last …
