Hello Humans! Once again I'm back with mini-reviews - putting together my quick thoughts on books that maybe don't need a full review dedicated to them! The Alloy of Law I really enjoyed this book - love a detective story, love the Mistborn universe, love magic and Victorian technology meeting - yes it was good.... Continue Reading →
Hello Humans! Time again to tackle the tricky task of reviewing the final book in a trilogy! If you want to check out my reviews of the previous books you can do so here: Shadow of the Fox Soul of the Sword Goodreads summary: Kitsune shapeshifter Yumeko has given up the final piece of the...

Hello Humans! What happens when prophecies get messed up? When the wrong person ends up tackling the foretold task? Kel Kade explores this question in her book Fate of the Fallen which came out in mid-December (I'm catching up). I'm a sucker for an unlikely hero so I thought I'd give this book a try! Goodreads...

Hello Humans! Like many of you, I'm sure, I was caught up in the Vampire hype of 2009-11 (and beyond). I fiercely debated whether Bella should go for the wolf or the sparkly man, I gasped at the events of House of Night and...I probably read some weird books I got from the library that I've...

Hello Humans! I've been on a real fantasy kick lately (by which I mean fantasy that is not YA), I feel like this is the time of year for fantasy releases and my shelves are bowing under the weight of all the amazing books! One such book sent to me by the delightful people at Orbit... Continue Reading →
Hello Humans! I know I've said it before, but this time I mean it - I am devastatingly behind on writing book reviews! After reading a book every day in June I just lost all motivation to sit and write - we also moved house which might have something to do with it! But I'm... Continue Reading →
Hello Humans! It is June 4th and - unsurprisingly - the fourth day in my #ABookADay reading challenge. The TBR jar has decreed that my next read shall be The Memory of Fire and, while I can't remember anything that happened in The Waking Land I'm intrigued by the idea of following a different character - we shall...

Hello Humans! Just a quick post to let all of you know that, like last year, I'm going to be reading (or trying to read) a book every day in the month of June. I did this last year and it was a great exercise and I've been very excited about what I've got on... Continue Reading →
Hello Humans! Some of my Twitter followers may recognise that Emily Eternal was the first book featured in my #NonStopNetgalley readathon, kindly co-hosted by my good pal Asha from A Cat, A Book and a Cup of Tea. Feeling a little behind on my ARCs I set out on a quest to read one book a day... Continue Reading →
Hello Humans! Today I'm reviewing a book that I, like many, managed to snag in the March Fairyloot box. As you can imagine, I was quite pleased to get Viper as the other book was To Best the Boys and, while I love the cover, I wasn't particularly enamoured with the book itself. But I had high hopes...

Hello Humans! Before you start this review I highly suggest that you go back and read my review of the first book in this series Smoke and Summons. I mean, I’m not going to tell you that you have to, I’m not your mum or anything, but I think you’ll get more out of this... Continue Reading →
Hello Humans! It feels like a good long while since I last dipped my toes into the YA dystopian genre (but thinking about it, I just finished Monsters of Men so maybe that’s just me compartmentalising things into weird genre groups). At a guess, I’d say the other books I’ve read lately have been Dry... Continue Reading →
