The Enigma Game has been on my NetGalley list for a long time. I thought it was the perfect time to pick it up and get it off. I did read Code Name Verity a long time ago and I never got around to reading Rose Under Fire or any of the others. Whether it…
Stronger, Faster and More Beautiful is a collection of six stories, all of which comments on how technology can better or destroy the human race. I think the commentary in this book was really well placed and offered a really unique insight into the world of technology and how that meshes with humans. I did…

The Grace Year was an interesting concept, it reminded me of The Handmaid’s Tale in all the right ways. I loved the different ways that the girls were categorised and the way that everything comes together really shocked me. I don’t know what I was expecting but it definitely wasn’t that, and I really loved…

Scars Like Wings surprised me in every way possible. I loved everything about this book, I was really worried that it was going to turn into a pity party like 100 Days of Sunlight and I wasn’t sure I could take that again. I didn’t need to panic because this book was unbelievably raw and…

I loved the concept of this book, I mean who wouldn’t want to read about an exchange program that involved time travel. I really wanted this book to blow me away but unfortunately I wanted more from both the plot and the characters. I think The Exchange would have scored more stars if there had…

King of Fools is the second book in The Shadow Game series, and I was so excited to find out what was going to happen especially after reading Ace of Shades. I love the characters and the world that is being built all around them. I also really enjoyed this book more because there was…

I am so upset to say that this book just wasn’t for me. I wanted so badly to love The Day We Meet Again, it had on face value everything I want from a book, a romance that can’t be and a climatic ending, but the payoff was very far from that. I have to…

We Hunt the Flame was a book that I was really excited to jump into, the characters and the concept sounded really intriguing, definitely giving me Mulan vibes. I will say that I thought everything in this book was a little rushed, with the relationships and the world-building. I got to the end of the…
This month’s edition may not have changed from last month, I’m trying to catch up on my requests and I haven’t actually requested many more from the last time. But I thought what the heck! I’ll actually try and keep up with doing this each month! Any of the books on this list catch your…

The Orphanage of Gods is another Netgalley read and one that I was really intrigued by the premise. I love anything to do with Gods and their offspring, like Percy Jackson is a fave and Strange the Dreamer makes me swoon. This book has the added bonus of the “godspawn” being in a precarious position…
