I wanted so badly to love Aurora Burning, but it just didn’t hold my attention. I found that the drama became too much of the focal point and the other members of the team that actually had a great backstory were now being overshadowed by other parts of the point. To put it bluntly, I…
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…
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 have heard amazing things about Normal People and I wish this review was as simple as that. I haven’t quite got my head wrapped around this book and everything that happened in this book and story. I still don’t know what the point of the book or if the fact that I don’t know…
I want to preface this review of The Court of Miracles with saying that I really enjoyed this book, I just had some issues with the way some of the things that went down and how the story was structured. I really loved the characters and the politics of everything that happened with the different…
I am a massive fan of Tom Hanks, I mean who isn’t, so when I saw that there was an anthology written by him I had to pick it up. I wasn’t sure what to expect and I hadn’t read anything more about the book and the type of stories that were going to be…
