[Updated: January 2026] Yet another reread of The Bone Season and I have to say this book just grows on you. I actually ended up reading the 10th anniversary version which was slightly different to the previous versions but I’m not sure I noticed enough of a difference to make it worthwhile. I understood Shannon’s…
This was a nostalgia read for me, I read The Amulet of Samarkand back when I was in secondary school and when The Works had the complete series for ridiculous cheap I had to pick it up. We follow Nathaniel as a magician’s apprentice in a world where magic is not only revered but magicians…
I wasn’t a massive fan of the Caraval series, and I don’t actually think I finished it, so I wasn’t sure that Once Upon a Broken Heart was going to work for me. There was no need to worry this book drew me in and I was fully invested in the entire plot and couldn’t…
I have no idea why I have never read or heard this book being hyped up everywhere! Ink and Bone is the first book in The Great Library series and I’m HOOKED, I don’t even know how to explain my feelings and love for this book. The world, the politics, the Library and the characters…
I am a HUGE fan of the Lunar Chronicles and I have been more than excited to read this one. I love Alice in Wonderland and Heartless seemed to be a perfect match for me. I always love reading books where the villain is given and a story and one that explains why they became…

Strange the Dreamer is definitely still one of my favourite books written by Laini Taylor. I think this time around I ended up learning so much more about the characters and I actually don’t remember reading the…
The Giver was a book that actually took me by surprise. I’ve given it four stars but I wouldn’t be lying if I didn’t say I have no clue what this book was actually about. I struggled to understand what was happening and what the purpose of some of the things that took place within…
Watch Us Rise was provided to me by Netgalley, and I was drawn to it because the premise reminded me of The Hate U Give. I will say that this book doesn’t have the same elegance that The Hate U Give had. I thought that Watch Us Rise got to be quite preachy at times,…
I was very kindly given an e-arc of The Blood Prince by Josie Jaffrey, and if you have followed the blog for a while then you know that I have loved this book series all the way through. I think the characters are really well developed and I always love the way that the books…
Foreign to You : The book where I spent the majority of the time confused and wondering when I would care about the characters. Foreign To You was an ARC I received from Netgalley and I have to say I can understand why some people really love this book, for me however it just didn’t…
