When I say Sunrise on the Reaping has put me back into the world of Panem I’m not joking. The next reasonable thing to do was to reread the entire original trilogy and The Hunger Games was as perfect as I remembered it being. When I read this as a kid I remember being in…
There is something brilliant about The Hunger Games universe and getting the chance to jump back in with Sunrise on the Reaping feels like an absolute treat. I adore Haymitch, I think he is the perfect character with all of his flaws and how he views the world and the Games. There was something completely…
I have always loved Jodi Picoult books, they always deal with difficult issues but offer a completely different perspective and The Pact is no different. When you read a book about a possible double suicide pact or murder, it’s never going to be a fun or easy read but this story never felt heavy or…
After seeing some really disparaging reviews of Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Tomorrow I wasn’t sure whether I was going to hate it or love it. But this book took me by surprise, I ended up finishing with a sense of satisfaction and joy that I had been missing. It was such a great read, and…
The Adventures of Amina al-Sirafi was my only five star read in March. I recommend that anyone looking for a fantasy surrounding a female pirate and a fantastic crew of characters to pick this one up. It is brilliantly written and has some really great scenes throughout. I think this might actually make my favourites…

Gallant is the latest book in my quest to read everything that V.E Schwab has ever written. I had no idea what the book was about, and I went in completely blind, but I loved it. It has taken me a moment to collect my thoughts and work out how exactly I feel about this…
I wasn’t a huge fan of Madeline Miller’s debut novel, and I was a little hesitant purely because I didn’t think I would like another Greek myth retelling especially if she had taken the same liberties as the first. I have to say I was too harsh and skeptical, Circe blew me away in all…
I read The Queen’s Poisoner whilst on holiday in Disney and it managed to keep my attention all the way through, something I was surprised with especially as there was so many other distractions. This was definitely a book I wasn’t sure about going into but it definitely took me completely by surprise. The world…
Eleanor Oliphant Is Completely Fine was a book that I have been meaning to read for a very long time and I finally got round to it. If you had asked me to review this book when I was still 100 pages in I think it would have been a very different review. I wasn’t…
