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...

Announcement: 12 (Or So) Days of Blogmas

So after a random thought to me yesterday while I was working a 10-hour shift on Christmas Eve I had a random thought to do 12 blog posts that occur in the 12 days of Christmas! That's right, 12 days and 12 blog posts. OK so maybe a little bit more around 15. This is something that I did before so I wanted to do it again

So why? 

Well that's a good question? It turns out that I am very behind on book reviews and there is a lot of posts that I would like to do before the end of the year so this gives me the opportunity to do so. 

I have also not been posting that regularly in the past year. This is partly because of university and work as I am so busy to do blog posts and it is Christmas so although I should be doing university work, I need some time off so I am doing some posts. My mental health has also taken a beating this year and it is with this that I have taken some time off the internet to focus on me. I have been trying to pick up the pieces seen in my mental health and it is a struggle but I think that I am getting there. Slowly. Yes but I am trying.

 So anyway...

There will be a lot of variety of posts from my favourite books to a variety of book reviews.

So stay tuned! I am very excited about this and hopefully, it will be successful. Hopefully...

Hope you have a nice Christmas and happy holidays!

See you soon,

Amy

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.
