The Summoning is the first book in a series that has been sat on my shelves for a very long time. I am currently trying to keep my book buying to a minimum and reading all the books that I have on my shelves at the moment. I have a load of books by Kelly…
The Warrior Heir has been on my wishlist for forever and I never seemed to hit the buy button for whatever reason. Well, there it was, sat on a table at YALC and for a decent price so who could resist? I couldn’t. It ended up in my suitcase and bam, here we are. I…
Going Viral is the third book in The Potion Diaries, so if you don’t want to be spoiled you should read book reviews 1 & 2 first! Going Viral is the final book in what was a really fun series. I think these books all the way through have been super fun reads and books…
Down Among the Sticks and Bones could be seen as a sequel to Every Heart a Doorway – you might want to read that one first! I loved the entire concept of this book, especially after listening to Every Heart a Doorway. It was the perfect follow on and one that I enjoyed thoroughly, I…

This book drove me crazy – it was one of the books I wanted to read for YALC 2017. The characters were awful and the plotline was so underdeveloped and I almost had to put the book down on many occasions. It was so slow and the plot took forever to actually kick into action –…
