Absolutely loved it. The characters were fantastically unlikeable and entertaining at every turn!

Finally finished exams (yay!!!) so now it‘s time to get back into reading (double yay!!!)
An absolutely fantastic collection of literary haikus, I don‘t think I stopped laughing the whole way through!
This one was a nice change of pace and I learnt a whole lot more about wallpaper restoration than I ever thought I would 😂
A great look at the importance of memories, knowing when to try to fix things, and when the past should give way to the present. The only thing that really let it down was the ending which left way too much unsaid for my liking
As much as I wanted to love this book I just couldn't connect with the characters or the story itself. Their "search for transcendence" proved to be a bit much self-indulgent introspection for me to enjoy
A beautiful retelling that showed both Peter Pan and Captain Hook in a new light. Absolutely loved it ❤️
Finally got around to a re-read and I love it even more than I did the first time around!
I love a good retelling and this one was amazing! Pride and prejudice from the perspective of the servants definitely gave a fresh opinion of the actions of the Bennets and the times that they lived in. It was interesting to see the different views and experiences of the different classes within the one household. It was also nice to see that Mrs. Bennet remained as impractical as ever if not more so 😂
So excited to start this one! How could the laws of robotics possibly go wrong 😂😂
Decided a re-read was definitely required and continuing my love of beautiful endpapers!
"What could he and she really know of each other, since it was his duty, as a 'decent' fellow, to conceal his past from her, and hers, as a marriageable girl, to have no past to conceal?"
Absolutely loved it (especially all the commentary on society) and who could go past a book with such gorgeous endpapers? ?
"How long is it since you were really bothered? About something important. About something real."
A world without books, horrifying to think about but an amazing read!
"And Emma tried to find out what one meant exactly in life by the words felicity, passion, rapture, that had seemed to her so beautiful in books"
I absolutely loved the book and I absolutely hated Madame Bovary herself for her many self-indulgent actions that ultimately were to the detriment of everyone around her. While her feelings of powerlessness were understandable, she seemed like a woman that nothing would ever be enough for...
