The BoMoSh Jan 2017

Welcome to the first ever round up dedicated to Books, Movies and Shows. Aka The BoMoSh.

Each month instead of including a list of books, movies and shows that I’ve been enjoying in the month to the blog roundup post, I’ve created a new series just for them.

Each month I’ll be sharing with you the books that I’ve read, the movies I’ve seen, and the shows I’m currently watching. There will also be a section with what I hope to read/see in the following month.

I hope that this space will be one that you can comment on, share your own reads and viewings from the past month, and even suggests books, movies and shows that you might think I’d enjoy. Sound good?

Summer is for pool-side reading, and evening movies. Which is why this month’s list of films seen is so flippin’ long. Most of them I hadn’t seen before, and a couple were at the theatre.


Shows

This month I watched season 1-2 of Orphan Black, and wow. It’s amazing. I love it. I finished Merlin season 3, as well. I also finally started and finished House season 8, and watched Sherlock Season 4 (ohmygosh). I was super excited that A Series of Unfortunate Events came out (on my birthday too!), so look out for a post about that coming soon!

I was out of good internet zone for the majority of the month, so now that I’m back in good internet-life I’m catching up on some of the things that have started up again, like Shadowhunters.


Next month…

Books – I managed to get a bunch of books from the library all at once. I hope to read at least a couple of the following: Rebel of the Sands, Vicious, Ink and Bone, The Midnight Star, and Three Dark Crowns.

Movies – There aren’t any movies coming out in February that I’m excited for, but you never know!

Shows – I hope to start (and finish!) Orphan Black season 3, and also continue with some of the shows that are being released weekly at the moment.


Drop me a comment or flick me a Tweet if you have any suggestions for books, movies or shows, or let me know what you’ve read and watched this month!
