Melbourne Bloggers Brunch w/ Author Lili Wilkinson

July 30, 2018

Heyo Bookaholics! I have never felt more like a proper blogger until I received that invitation to the most exclusive bloggers only event. Sitting with other known bloggers, YouTubers and bookaholics I had the strong feeling of: “This is where I belong”. In anticipation for Lili Wilkinson’s new book After The Lights Go Out, the lovely ladies from The YA Room hosted the most amazing brunch for Melbourne bloggers and YouTubers. Pictured above are all the beautiful people who attended, minus Tracy, […]

Tin Heart Book Launch!!!

Heyo Bookaholics! Last night I attended the book launch for Tin Heart by Shivaun Plozza. The event was located at Dymocks in Melbourne’s City, and hosted by Allen & Unwin and Inside a Dog – who are responsible for The Inky Awards of which the longlists have already been released. It was such an amazing night! There was lots of laughter, chatter, and socialisation especially on my part.

Hey Ho Bookaholics! This event, hosted by Allen & Unwin at the Dymocks on Collins St. in Melbourne, brought us – and by ‘us’ I mean the bookworms of Australia – our beloved Amie Kaufman, and the very first international author I have met; Meagan Spooner. After a big day at work (8:30 – 5), dressed in my Gemina inspired outfit consisting of a full black jumpsuit (definitely not Danae Matresco), and heeled peep-toe boots; I met my friend at […]

Gemina Book Launch and Signing

October 22, 2016

Hey Ho Bookaholics! Today the theme is blue, because I have some amazing Gemina news to share with you! Last night I went to the Victorian State Library to attend the Book Launch for Gemina by Jay Kristoff and Amie Kaufman. I forced my dad to come along with me and he (surprisingly) enjoyed the event.

19/1/2015 – Australian Open Tennis; Day 1 I know it’s really late, but last Monday I went to the first day of the Australian Open Tennis. I had a ‘court hopper’ pass that granted me access to all of the courts in Melbourne Park with the exception of Rod Laver Arena and Margaret Court Arena.

HELLO WoooorrrrRLllD; THIS IS ME-eeeee!

Hi, that’s my face! My name is Bree and I’m the human teapot behind Jasper + Spice! I’m a huge nerd – no shock to anyone here I hope.

When I’m not doing my 7.5 hours at work or mindlessly watching YouTube videos; you’ll find me lurking in bookstores, talking to myself (no joke I actually do this); or eating. Though not at the same time, because books + food = bad!

I’ve started many projects. Some of which won’t ever be finished. I have journals on top of journals, and unfinished manuscripts that I attend to from time to time. My current projects are NaNo2019 Novel [Completed], #Realise [On Hold] and The Inversion [On Hold]. I post writing content on Wednesdays!

To find out more about me, you can visit my about me page or you can start a conversation with me on my Instagram or Twitter!

P.S. If any of you have seen The Saddle Club, you’d understand the above reference, and even though the show is no more, the theme song never leaves my head!!
