So this week is a Freebie week and I have decided to do a past topic that I haven’t done.
I chose my top 10 books I could re-read forever and I might be cheating a little by adding some series that I would re-read the entire series.
Covenant Series by Jennifer L Armentrout
The Great Gatsby by F Scott Fitzgerald
The Night Circus by Erin Morgenstern
Percy Jackson Series by Rick Riordan
Throne of Glass Series by Sarah J Maas
Lunar Chronicles Series by Marissa Meyer
Illuminae Files Series by Amie Kaufman and Jay Kristoff
A Series of Unfortunate Events by Lemony Snicket
Stalking Jack the Ripper Series by Kerri Maniscalco
Harry Potter Series by J K Rowling
Ok doing this list has now got me really excited to re-read these books and I am going to do that over the holidays.
Ok so it is fair to say that it has been a difficult month and a half, and most things in my life have been affected but in particiular all of my hobbies that I normally get a lot of enjoyment out of.
Everything in my life was moving along nicely and I had a pattern. Well I did until my partner of 8 years decided it was time to have a conversation about our relationship and where it was going. Always a great thing to hear…….
Now I know that breaking up of a relationship is not the end of the world but it is still a very difficult thing and as this is my first relationship I do feel like it makes it that much harder. Now don’t get me wrong, I do know that this was coming as he had changed his thoughts on getting married and having kids from when we first started, but this is the person that I have been with since I was 18 and there is a huge difference between thinking that break ups should occur and actully going through it. So needless to say there has been some tears.
One of the hardest things is the fact that we have the same friendship group so it is really important that we are still friends and this is especially important as we own a house together and have decided to rent it out for 12 months so that we can build up seperate deposits for our own places in the future, but it has left me with an entire house to pack up and try to fit into my old bedroom at my Dad’s place. On top of that I have been using his car for the last 5 years so I had to quickly buy a car.
There has just been so many things going on and also because we are in the lead up to Xmas I am already busy most weekends and now I have the pressure of people wanting me to move ASAP. Unfortunately this has all meant that I haven’t had the time or the patiences to sit down and write posts or even finish editing the videos I already have filmed.
I hope that you all understand that I have needed this break for my own welfare and not adding any extra presure on top of what is already going on. I am working on the back list of post and videos but I am more focused on making sure that I have my love of reading as an excape not just another task on my very long to do list.
Ok that is enough about my personal life.
So it has definitely been awhile since I have done a post of any kind and I am truely sorry for that. I will be doing a life update post and video for anyone that is interested in the massive changes that have happened lately which have caused me to need some time to myself and has really impacted my reading of late.
So anyway this weeks theme for Top Ten Tuesday is Winter / Cosy Reads and even though it is now Summer in Australia I love curling up with a good book on a cold rainy day.
Kiss of Deception by Mary E Pearson
Half-Blood by Jennifer L Armentrout

Basically I love curling up with a good series and having binge sessions with a cup of coffee and my blanket.

Hey guys,
I am starting off this post with a massive I’m Sorry.
I have had to take so time off from Blogging/ Youtube and even reading in general as I have been going through a pretty hard time. While this is certainly not over I am starting to move on and get back to the things that I love.
So I’m doing this post a day late and using last weeks topic but I hope you will all forgive me.
Last week’s topic for TTT was Villians and I want to highlight some of my favourite Villians. (not quite sure if they are going to be in order or not)
Sebastian Morgenstern – from Mortal Instruments Series
Scythe Goddard – from Scythe
Bellatrix Lestrange – from Harry Potter
Athos & Astrid Dane – from Darker Shade of Magic
Queen of Hearts – from Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland
The Evil Queen – from Snow White
Joker – from Batman
Count Olaf – from A Series of Unfortunate Events
Moriarty – from Sherlock Holmes
Lord Voldemort – from Harry Potter
Hope everyone is having a good Halloween and reading all the creepy books.
