Good Lessons from “Bad” Books

Posted on September 4, 2019 by Gabriella Jayne • Leave a comment

One of the main things I wanted to fix during the first year of my degree was my tendency to gravitate towards books that I was embarrassed to read. I’m talking trashy YA books with insanely problematic characters combined with edgy, quotable lines. At the start of the year, I berated myself for spending so … Continue reading →

My Year in Books Part IV

Posted on May 17, 2019 by Gabriella Jayne • 1 Comment

As I wrote in December 2018 when this post was meant to be published, “It’s been an interesting year all round.” Unfortunately, it was such an interesting year that I then got scarlet fever and didn’t write much else, and here we are 6 months later, three book posts behind. This will be my last … Continue reading →

Everything, Everything Wrong With Everything, Everything

Posted on March 15, 2019 by Gabriella Jayne • 1 Comment

A few years back, I won a free copy of Everything, Everything through Goodreads giveaways. It really angered me at the time, and watching the film recently only renewed that. I realise that I’m very late to the party on this one, but it seemed like something that belonged on Blogolepsy. This review contains spoilers. … Continue reading →

Writing in University

Posted on March 9, 2019 by bxfheyes • Leave a comment

As you can probably tell from the long spaces between posts, our lives have been pretty busy. I recently moved to university which is probably the best thing I’ve ever done. It’s nothing personal that I’ve not been writing here, I’ve hardly done any creative writing or reading since moving to university because life has … Continue reading →

The Importance of Mental Health Fiction

Posted on February 26, 2019 by Gabriella Jayne • 2 Comments

A few weeks ago, a friend that I lost to my anxiety wrote an article about how mental illness is no longer stigmatized. I won’t call this friend out because this isn’t about pettiness, but the confidence with which they wrote their argument shook me. The discussion is no longer needed, wrote my mentally healthy … Continue reading →

My Year in Books Part III

Posted on September 8, 2018 by Gabriella Jayne • Leave a comment

If you’ve been following our blog, you’ll probably know that I’ve been trying to read more this year. Given how much time I’ve had these past few months, I’m kind of ashamed that I only have another five to add, but in my defence, I’ve spent a lot of time planning for my interrail trip, … Continue reading →

Blogolepsy Reading List: My Year in Books Part Two

Posted on July 15, 2018 by Gabriella Jayne • Leave a comment

If you’ve read any of my previous posts about reading, you’ll know that I’ve been trying to read more this year. Halfway through the year, and I’ve just finished book 15 of my 15 book goal! However, I’ve just started volunteering at my local library, so I have a feeling that that number will be … Continue reading →

Review: Shatter Me by Tahereh Mafi

Posted on April 22, 2018 by Gabriella Jayne • 2 Comments

I was both blown away and thoroughly disappointed by this book. Since I stopped reading as much, I missed a lot of YA books. Shatter Me was one that I’d really looked forward to reading, as I’d heard a lot of good things. What I loved about this book was Mafi’s poetic style. I know … Continue reading →

Review: Replica by Lauren Oliver

Posted on March 24, 2018 by Gabriella Jayne • 2 Comments

I loved Oliver’s book Delirium, and so I was hoping to find a book that I loved as much. In many ways, this book would have fared better if the bar wasn’t that high. Replica revolves around a research facility where they manufacture clones (or “replicas”). The idea is that the book is split into … Continue reading →
