About

  About Amy Hello, I'm Amy, an aspiring motorsports writer and former blogger.  If you dig deeper enough, you find some very old blog posts, as this started as a book blog, but that's really where I got my start in writing: book reviews, hot book topics and as well as the odd personal essay.  After leaving university, I left the book blog behind, but continued writing and going in the world of social media, writing film reviews and promoting queer cinema, but after a tragic event in my personal life, I quickly discovered Motorsports.  What started as a love for Formula 1, while finally watching the Formula 1 film, Rush, and discovering Formula 1 TikTok, this love soon expanded to everything Formula E, IndyCar, Formula 2, Formula 3, as well as F1 Academy.  I soon found the itch to write come back, with the fast-moving news of motorsport, to the drama, the competition, and the journey of drivers trying to find a race seat. I found that it was the people and storie...

Jennifer Lawrence Book Tag


I was just browsing Youtube and I discovered the Jennifer Lawrence book tag. Like many people I enjoy Jennifer Lawrence so I thought it would be cool to do a book tag about her and her life. The tag was created by Micheal Booklion however I am going to be using the questions amended by Tashapolis. Both their videos are linked if you are interested in them. So let's get started...
1. Swearing off social media- A book you refuse to read?

50 Shades of Grey by E.L.James- I don't have any interest in this book and I don't want to read this book as I don't read adult romance and erotica. I don't even have any interest in the film. Just no....
















2. The Oscar trip- A book/series that hit a snag?

Allegiant (Divergent, #3)The Divergent series by Veronica Roth-  I enjoyed both Divergent and Insurgent however the series for me hit a snag in Allegiant. I did not enjoy Allegiant that much and I am not really excited for the films considering I have not even seen Insurgent yet. 









3.* The viral Taylor Swift photobomb at the Golden Globes: A book/series you didn't know would get so popular?

OneOne by Sarah Crossan- This one is not massively popular however for a UKYA book it has been quite popular especially with the amount of US booktubers and bloggers who got ARCs of this book. This is quite weird because UKYA does normally just stay popular in the UK rather than going outside. 









4. Work with David O. Russell- Dysfunctional character you can't help but love?

City of Bones (The Mortal Instruments, #1)Clary Fray from the TMI series- Clary can be a very annoying character in the series often going against the word of her friends but she is still a good character at heart. Although stupid at time... 










5. Mystique- A villain who thinks they're doing what's right?

Shadow and Bone (The Grisha, #1)The Darkling from the Grisha series- This was the only villain that I could think of in the heat of the moment and he does care for Alina and would do anything to get her whatever the consequences are. 










6.* Bradley Cooper: What author do you find yourself always coming back to?

The Iron King (The Iron Fey, #1)Julie Kagawa- I am a massive fan of anything that she writes and will most likely buy any books that she releases. I have read all but two of her books and I will have to get to them soon. 










7.* Spoiled for Homeland on National television: A plot line you were spoiled for?

Allegiant (Divergent, #3)Allegiant- I spoiled myself for this one but this is the only major spoiler that I have seen really. I don't get spoiled a lot. 












8. The Hunger Games- Favorite high profile series?

The Hunger Games (The Hunger Games, #1)The Hunger Games- Well then...













9.* Everyone's obsession with being her best friend: A character who's make your ultimate best friend?

Hermione Granger- She likes books, I like books, it is a win, win combination. 

10. Everything she's ever said- Favourite comedic/snarky character?

City of Glass (The Mortal Instruments, #3)Simon Lewis from the TMI series- Simon is one of my favourite characters in this series. He is definitely sarcastic and lovable and really adds to what really is a great series. Clary also really doesn't give him enough credit. Also to the previous question, I hope we could be friends too. 









What are some of your answers to the following questions? Also have you done this book tag? Leave it in the comments below.

See you soon, 

Amy

Book Review: A Semi Definitive List of Worst Nightmares by Krystal Sutherland

* I have received this book for review from Readers First but this in no way affects my review * Title: A Semi Definitive List of Worst Nightmares Author: Krystal Sutherland Source: From Readers First Publisher: Hot Key Books Rating: 5/5 stars ( Goodreads | Amazon ) Book Summary from Goodreads: Ever since Esther Solar's grandfather was cursed by Death, everyone in her family has been doomed to suffer one great fear in their lifetime. Esther's father is agoraphobic and hasn't left the basement in six years, her twin brother can t be in the dark without a light on, and her mother is terrified of bad luck. The Solars are consumed by their fears and, according to the legend of the curse, destined to die from them.  Esther doesn't know what her great fear is yet (nor does she want to), a feat achieved by avoiding pretty much everything. Elevators, small spaces, and crowds are all off-limits. So are haircuts, spiders, dolls, mirrors and three dozen oth...

Relighting My Fire (Part 1/3)

*This was written in October and is a series of three blog posts that I am publishing together. The thoughts in these blog posts may not affect how I am feeling now and it is safe to say that I do feel mentally better than I once did.* To be honest, this is the first time I've truly written something in months. It sucks. Like really  sucks but I don't think that I can do it if I don't really love it. So why now? Well, somethings changed. I have that spark again. My fire has been relit. This feels good again. Writing feels good again. I think another reason was that I finally have the motivation to do it again. Not for anyone else  but me. Because that is who I should write for. Me. Who you might be asking why I have been gone? Why have I not written anything in months? Well, that's a hard question and all I can say is that it is complicated. I wasn't OK and I for the  most part I am and when you feel like that writing something even a simple text ...
