I’m just going to start this post with a big ol’ super easy summary: I frikin’ loved this book. There we go. That’s all I needed to say. Review over. I couldn’t just leave it there, could I? It’s massive and it took me ages, but I thoroughly enjoyed it. I feel lost without it … More Book Review: Killing Commendatore by Haruki Murakami
So I know I’ve been super quiet here and over on Instagram these last few weeks. It really wasn’t my intention to take such a drastic step-back, but I did, and I think it was because I was majorly over-thinking this post. I know, stupid. Stupid because there should never be a need to over-think … More What I’m Currently Reading: Killing Commendatore by Haruki Murakami
Just a quick mini-post here to update you guys on how my January went, and what my plans for February are, through books!

First of all, Merry Christmas! And welcome back to My Paper Lungs. I didn’t mean to, but I took a bit of a hiatus on the whole book-reading, writing front of things.

I haven’t really planned what I want to read for November. I think I’m going to be a rebel and just go with the flow and see what takes my fancy. … More My November TBR
I’m such a sucker for noir crime dramas. And nordic noir crime dramas are like a sugar high for me. I love the gritty police reality, the harsh, desolate, urban scenaries, the gruesome crimes committed. I just had to buy this book, The Chestnut Man by Søren Sveistrup. … More Book Review: The Chestnut Man by Søren Sveistrup
I’d only just finished The Shining when I started Dr Sleep. I was excited to pick-up where we’d left of, to find out what happened to Danny, but more importantly, to see if the demons from the infamous Overlook Hotel had truly been vanquished. The story follows Danny through his tumultuous adulthood. Moving from city … More Book Review: Dr Sleep by Stephen King
The most exciting thing about this time of year (except for the pumpkins, the food, the weather and the, err, food) are the creepy stories that are told or read around bonfires, snuggled up under cosy blankets, or watched on tv.
