Reading Prompt: True crime #2

28th March 2018 by Norrie

I don’t read true crime. I watch it. Devour it. I have spent many hours in front of my screen, binge watching true crime documentaries in glassy eyed silence, engrossed in stories of gruesome murders and senseless killings. I find human nature equally fascinating and horrifying. “No other genre is a more apt testament that our evil, primal, fearful selves linger just beneath our calm, civilised exteriors, that life goes on even after the worst has happened, and that all […]

Reading Prompt: A book from a celebrity book club #32

24th January 2018 by Norrie

I’ve never followed any of those celebrity book clubs floating around, nor have I been a part of any actual book club where you meet actual people and discuss books. I just can’t see myself sitting there and inevitably ending up in some sort of an argument about some fictional character, or a subplot, or story line.

New Year, New Books

1st January 2018 by Norrie

Happy New Year, fellow readers! Hope none of you are suffering from hangover from last night’s celebrations. I spent my New Year’s Eve watching Attack on Titan, stuffing my face with the most amazing festive burger ever (Camembert and cranberry sauce, just sayin’), and sipping on some whiskey because I like to think I’m sophisticated. This morning the Goodreads Reading Challenge opened for 2018, and feeling empowered by last year’s success, I pledged another 65 books for this year. So, […]

Norrie

Book lover, cat hugger, coffee drinker, wiseass, capable of eating half a cheesecake in one sitting. Best not to approach before she had her breakfast. Loves a good thriller, but would probably not touch romance with a stick. Based on the amount of crime fiction she’s read, could probably solve a crime. Or not, but she would certainly try. Loves science fiction and secretly dreams about joining the Starfleet since she was fourteen. Hates ignorance and anything with coriander. Doesn’t operate well below 25 degree Celsius.
