I'm Aoife, a massive bookworm and bibliophile. I'm Irish, I'm in my 30s, and I can often be found with a coffee in one hand and a book in the other.
I mainly read contemporary fiction, romance, thrillers, and historical fiction. If any of these are your favourites too please do tell me some great books I could share here. I'm also excited to expand my reading tastes and genres, so do let me know some other great reads I should pick up.

Ooof I’m happy you like manga now, honestly our friendship was on the line there 😬😂
Oh god what if I hadn't liked it 😱
I loved this video so much!! Honestly I adore you as a person so much!!!
You're the SWEETEST 🥰🥰 obrigada!
@@PrettyPurplePolkaDots Ahhh no, nothing like that!! I just really enjoy you listen to you talk ahahah
Dave. No. It does not look like you want to make decisions. Further thoughts to follow as I watch the rest of your video.
I was not ready.
Yessss Truly Madly Deeply!
You influenced me to start it in July
Face off weekend was a nice change of scene. I don't think I realised how much reading I could squeeze into such a short space of time! I loved reading a bit of manga too.
It really was, it almost revived me cos I could feel a slump coming along
Face off weekend was really chaotic!! I loved it! The blondies look amazinggg btw!! Would love to steal the recipe ahahah
It was CHAOS! Let me see if I can find you that recipe!
@@PrettyPurplePolkaDots Ahhhh thank you so much!!
I’m really excited to read the husbands. 💰
Me too, doesn't it sound so intriguing?
Living vicariously through you... Love the Berlin content!!!! Probably said that already but hey ho!
Just doing some work for the Berlin tourism board 😅
@@PrettyPurplePolkaDots I mean… they could at least sponsor your channel… just saying 😆
Added Love and other disasters, and Love that journey for me! Schitt's Creek is my fav too! David is my heart and soul!
David Rose is the best, but Alexis is my idol
@@PrettyPurplePolkaDots just a little bit Alexis 😂
This is exactly why I'm on a ban. Until I get my unread pile to a more manageable situation... this is going to take a minute 😂
Also if you want a buddy for In Memoriam just shout!
I should REALLY have gone for a bán. Look how that worked out.
@@TheBookHerm I would LOVE a buddy!
@@PrettyPurplePolkaDots yeah I don’t know if I’m holding out tbh. Maybe I need to do a video to make it official and maybe that will hold me accountable 😂
@@PrettyPurplePolkaDots perfect! Just let me know when you’re ready for it!
🌎🌏🌍
🌏🌏🌏
I set myself a goal of reading the back catalogue of Elly Griffiths books ... They are getting better the more I read. I also have the 4 Bridgerton books to look forward to ... I want to watch the show, but holding off till I've read them all. Happy reading 📖 💖
I can't watch the show without reading them it's illegal
@@PrettyPurplePolkaDots I know what you mean haha 🤣
🌈🏳️🌈🌈
🌈
love that there’s so much non-fic here! 📚♥️
I truly had such a good month with non fic
I Hope This Finds You Well sounds ace! ♥️
It was genuinely so so good!
🏛️🏛️🏛️
💜💜💜
you’re going to be all of those things and also a total legend ♥️🌎
Look at her go!
the amount of times I said ‘ooooh, yes!’ in this video ♥️
It's the validation I needed
let me know what you think of Fingersmith! ♥️
I will call you immediately
📚 I really can't wait to get to Strong Female Character!
It's so good, I definitely recommend it!
Good work! 👏💰
Some very stacked up shelves
Very! I’ve also heard that it has some good discussions about relationships. Like the tension between not settling, and also not always looking for something better when you have something good.
I don't think that's how you're supposed to play the SIMs 😂😂😂
It is if you're unhinged 💀
@@PrettyPurplePolkaDots 🤣🤣🤣
Yay!! Ima Koi is so cute!! If you need personalized manga recs, let me know! I got you!
Shae I would LOVE personalised recs!
I’m ready to see how faceoff treated someone else. 😂
😅 "I wanna see how the other half lived"
Dave. That is VIOLENT green. It looks radioactive
RIGHT? I'm surprised I'm still alive
@@PrettyPurplePolkaDots Also. I want the burgers. I'm coming to Berlin to use my basic German to request a burger and eight kilos of cheese 🤣
I want the blondies. Now.
I love Ima Koi- it's such a cute series and I need to finish it soon! Ooh the blondies look yum!
Oh I'm with you, I need to finish this!
There is something about watching people bake that is so relaxing. You did so well this weekend!
I'm like your own personal Bake Off.
Smashed it! ☺️💛
Nailed the assignment
💛💛💛
💜💜
🌈
Raspberries are dope! I liked the segment with Arnoldo. That was fun!
He was the BEST for coming to help out!
The title! 😂👌
CEO of the airline by this stage
I loved this! You and your work colleague are delightful. And after reading for the face off all day, touch grass is a needed reminder. I am inspired to try some local brews at date night tonight and return to books later.
We really tried to give as much insight as we could!
Loooooved the vlog! 💜
Thank you, and thank you for the little plane!
@@PrettyPurplePolkaDots my pleasure! 💜
lol I love this title.
Captain of the insanity
The mentioning of the white Asparagus, what would Germany be without its Spargelsaison 😂 For sightseeing, I love the Nikolaiviertel and the Museumsinsel. Also Grunewald and Wannsee if you want some nature
Spargelzeit, beste Zeit des Jahres
I loved this video and hearing about Berlin is making me want to go back again! Loved the little what to do in Berlin collab and I agree, it's a city with few things to SEE but tonnes to DO. I was there 5 days and absolutely did not experience everything I would want haha
I full on think you should come back to Berlin.
@@PrettyPurplePolkaDots Next year once I'm back from Australia I'll make plans 😊
I think I'll be watching this every time I need a reality check!
It's just a good reminder!
I didn't realise Breakfast at Tiffany's was so short! yoink!
A non chonker

There was SO MUCH happening in there
📚📚📚
💜💜💜
Go Team LitFic! 💜🏛 Thanks for the short recs!
#letsgetlit! I believe in our small but mighty team
I really need to try Claire Keegan's books - adding to the author taste test list!
You really should! I love her books so so much
last man standing on the Ali Smith quartet! you go Glen Coco ♥️
Genuinely i deserve some sort of medal
I think I am going to try and get to Evelyn Hugo and maybe Funny Story too... both are on my tbr even If I don't get to them for TAR. I might even try and get to Bear Town but we shall see! 😂
Please let me know what you think of them whenever you get there!
@@PrettyPurplePolkaDots that I can do! 🥰
I bought Ed Gamble’s book before I finished watching this video, your review made it sound so good. I’m glad you liked Strong Female Character since that was my recommendation.
Damn, I really hope you enjoy it!
