I went into The Poet X blind. I had no idea about the story, just that the writing is in verse. The book has so much hype. Expectations were high. I really want to say, for half of this book I was going to actually rate this is a 3 star. It was only the…
I bought This Is How It Happened off of Amazon after reading a couple of good reviews about the story and I was intrigued by the blurb. I will say I wasn’t expecting a lot in terms of development because I thought it was a little tropey. I was right to not expect too much,…
Another reread for me and another that I wasn’t sure off when I originally read it, see my review of City of Bones for more on that. The Selection when I last read it had one major problem, America the main character, and it still does. She’s vapid and arrogant in that “I’m not really…
I went into this book with very high expectations, but I had heard mixed things, so I was hoping and expecting the best but knew there was a big possibility that I was going to be disappointed. I definitely think the premise of Three Dark Crowns is what intrigued me into buying and investing time…

Red Queen is a startlingly beginning to a brand new series by Victoria Aveyard. This was a reread for me and I loved this book as much as I did the first time. It is the perfect dystopian novel in the sense that it plays into all the tropes, the young girl who rises from…
If I Should Die is the third review in a series – read the first and the second! If I Should Die was the last book in a bitter sweet series. It started off really well and I thought that I might have found one of my favourite guilty pleasure series but it quickly went down…
I picked Die For Me up purely because it had been sat on my shelf for so long I think it grew dust. It was going to be one of those where if I hated the first book then I would get rid of the rest of the series on my shelf. I have to say…
