February was such a great month for reading. I really hit my stride and found some books that I really loved. I’m really excited for March actually because I feel really motivated to keep this streak going and maybe get some more challenge books read and completed. If you want to know more about my…
I have had such a better month of reading this month, I really got into the books I was reading and thoroughly enjoyed most of them. I also hammered through more of the books from my challenges something I really want to hit before the middle of the year, if you want to know more…
Akin is written by Emma Donoghue, who wrote Room which was one of my favourite books. I loved the insight you got all the way through that book and I was desperate to try Akin to see if I would connect the same with the characters and the story. I was blown away by how…
The Outsider follows a town reeling after the brutal murder of a child by someone who couldn’t possibly have committed the crime. I have to say I think this might be my favourite King novel I’ve read. The ending was satisfying and I enjoyed the story and characters immensely. It had just the right amount…
Stronger, Faster and More Beautiful is a collection of six stories, all of which comments on how technology can better or destroy the human race. I think the commentary in this book was really well placed and offered a really unique insight into the world of technology and how that meshes with humans. I did…

Eeny Meeny is a book that I picked up to fulfil one of my challenges this year. I have to say I knew it was a murder mystery but I wasn’t expecting the twists and turns that this book ended up taking me on or the gore and graphic nature of the plot. Basically, we…
This is going to be a hard review to write purely because I don’t want to spoil The Silent Patient for anyone, and one of the main reasons I disliked this book so much was because of a big spoiler. I had heard absolutely fantastic things about this book, and I think that might have…
I will just say I wasn’t expecting to love Maisie Dobbs as much as I did. I knew that there would be part of the story surrounding the Great War but I wasn’t expecting it to make me as emotional as it did. Although I knew that there was going to be a mystery but…
