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...

Top 5 Wednesday: Books You Did Not Finish

Top 5 WednesdayIt’s Wednesday so that means that it’s Top 5 Wednesday and this week’s topic is top five books you didn't finish. To find more about Top 5 Wednesday’s you can join the goodreads group and discover the creator of the group Lainey. So let’s get started…




Number 5: City Of Bones by Cassandra Clare

Image result for city of bones bookOK, so this one's kind of true... When I first started to read, this book was recommended to me and I didn't enjoy it at all. I didn't get passed the first chapter. This being said with the arrival of the film, I read it again and it is now one of my favourite books. 








Number 4: Divergent by Veronica Roth

Divergent (Divergent, #1)So like City of Bones, this is another one of those books that I really disliked and didn't pick it back up. I just remember it being stuck under my bed for months until I finally picked it back up again. The rest is history...









Number 3: My Mad Fat Diary by Rae Earl

My Fat, Mad Teenage Diary (Rae Earl, #1)This is a current one that I have not finished although I do intend to continue reading this but I have other books to read first...










Number 2: Lord Of The Rings by J.R.R. Tolkien 

The Lord of the Rings (The Lord of the Rings, #1-3)This book is the bane of my existence... I have attempted to read this book twice and I just can't do it. The thing I still want to read this one because I want to experience the joys of this world and want to watch the films. I think I just need to find the right time. 








Number 1: A Game of Thrones by George R.R. Martin 

A Game of Thrones (A Song of Ice and Fire, #1)To be honest I still want to read this one and I did only get 25 pages in. I also want to pick this one back up but I don't have the time for it at the minute. One day...










What are some of the books that you didn't finish? Leave them in the comments below. 

See you soon,

Book Review: D. O. G. S. by M. A. Bennett

*I am reviewing this book which I was gifted for free by Hot Key Books and Darkroom Tours in exchange for an honest review. All thoughts are my own. * Title: D. O. G. S. Author: M. A. Bennett  Publisher: Hot Key Books Source: Sent From Publisher Rating: 4/5 stars ( Amazon | Goodreads ) Book Summary: After the dramatic events of the last few weeks, Greer Macdonald is trying to concentrate on her A levels. Stuck for a play to direct for her drama exam, she gets help from an unexpected quarter . . . A priceless lost play, buried by time, is pushed under her door.
