The Polar Bear Explorers’ Club is another one for the Middle Grade train and this was such an all-round pleasant experience from start to finish. You dive straight into a world of unicorns, miniature dinosaurs and Victorian societies focused on exploring the world. There are so many things about this book that made me smile…
I feel like my reading is going from strength to strength at the minute. I’m reading a lot and falling back into love with my Kindle and even physical books. It feels like it’s back being a priority in my life and I’m loving the different characters and plots I’m exploring on the way! September…
Aru Shah and the End of Time was part of my fantasy kick. Plus I was trying to get through a reading slump. What better to read than a book about a girl who lies and threatens the end of the world? I will say it wasn’t as quick of a read as I thought…
Steve Cavanagh has been an author on my radar for a little while now, and I wanted to dip my toes before jumping head first into another series. Twisted is a standalone mystery and I really struggled all the way through it if I’m honest. The pacing felt bizarrely slow especially with everything that was…

Long time no wrap up! It’s strange to think that my first wrap up this year will be more than half way through. But August was the first month I actually feel as though I got on top of my reading in a real way. It was a brilliant month for me and one that…
You cannot be anywhere on bookish social media without seeing Fourth Wing everywhere, and I was sceptical that it was as good as everyone was saying. But, I am so so pleased to say that is definitely not the case. I adored this book from start to finish and I have already pre-ordered the next…
Cupcakes, Trinkets, and Other Deadly Magic piqued my interest when I realised that not only did it contain witchy things but also vampires and werewolves. Set in a cute bakery with delectable treats the story takes a nasty turn with a range of violent murders and the baker being in the centre of the controversy….
We’re back on the spicy book train and this one was another free download a couple weeks ago. Stolen by Starlight although marketed as a dirty book felt as though it was a little light on the sexy content and the world and plot felt more of a priority. It was a surprise and not…
