I was actually quite surprised at how many books I had on my shelves that I had forgotten about or didn’t remember why I had them. I try my best to unhaul books that I’m not interested in any more so it was werid to find ten books that I didn’t realise I had. I’ll…
I thought I would start a new series here on the blog, and I think this is a perfect time, especially because my reading is going at a snail’s pace and I haven’t got that many reviews lined up. This new series will focus on recommending books based on one single book. The first one…
I am a huge fan of The Illuminae Files, and they are definitely some of my favourite books ever. So when I heard that there was going to be a new book AKA Aurora Rising coming out I jumped straight onto the bandwagon and I’m so glad I did. This book was such a wonderfully…
The weather has been absolutely stunning this weekend and last couple of days, so this was a prompt that I was super excited to jump into. I will confess that I am not a huge planner when it comes to reading, as in I don’t read by season or holiday or anything like that, so…
I have had a bit of a mixed bag with Cinda Williams Chima, I wasn’t a huge fan of The Warrior Heir but I was so pleasantly surprised by how quick and brilliant of a read this was. I think I preferred this one purely because it was based in a more traditional fantasy environment…

I was so excited to get approved for an e-ARC of The Gravity of Us, so thank you Netgalley for letting me review this book. I loved the idea of this book, and it was a solid 3 -star read. Something that was enjoyable but to be honest not completely mind blowing. I struggled to…
When I bought The Gameshouse I wasn’t aware that it was going to be three separate yet entwined stories, but I have to say it definitely worked out better that way. I think it made way more sense to have the story set out this way then try and have a time jump or fill…
Middlegame has been on my list for the absolute longest time and I love reading the Wayward Children series. I definitely think this book is WAY more adult than those and there is some pretty awful violence and themes that run through this so just be aware. I think I went into this expecting it…
I try not to DNF books, I have gotten better at choosing books that I think will be a success rather than picking books up just because of the hype. But there have been a few over the last couple of months that I have managed to unhaul and finally drawn a line under. No…
