Hello humans! It feels like months since I read Vox, a book which publishes in just a few weeks. That's actually because it has been months! I read this book back at the end of April when I was in Norway which is AAAAGES ago! But publishing dates are publishing dates and so this review (which I... Continue Reading →
Hello humans! Yes, you read that title correctly, it is time to review Vicious. You know those books you love so much that you don’t want to review them in case it changes your mind? Yeah, this was one of those books for me. I’ve been pondering what I could possibly say that would explain... Continue Reading →
Hello humans! Welcome to the final instalment of my reviews of Marie Lu’s books (until I eventually get around to reading Warcross but honestly my TBR is currently the size of a young killer whale so I don’t know when that will be). I have enjoyed this series more than I could have ever imagined... Continue Reading →
Hello humans! I am so thrilled to be finally writing this book review (it has been one of those reviews that I’ve had sorted in my head for a while but have yet to put metaphorical pen to metaphorical paper). All Rights Reserved is one of the books I read when I was on holiday... Continue Reading →
Hello humans! Is now the time to reveal I have yet to read all the Cassandra Clare books? I suppose it is. What can I say? I read the original trilogy (City of Bones, City of Ashes, City of Glass) way back in a period of late night insomnia but then never got round to... Continue Reading →
Hello humans! We’re on part…5(?) of my journey through the adventures of Marie Lu’s writing (do we count Batman?) Anyway, this is a review of the second book in the Legend series Prodigy. I was left hooked after book one and immediately had to read the next. YA dystopian trilogies are my jam, but second... Continue Reading →
Hello humans! I’ve said it before and I will continue to proclaim it from the rooftops until someone calls the authorities and demands I get down. 2018 is the year of ALL THE RETELLINGS. I know that, in part, that’s just my reading taste showing it’s true colours as I continue to buy retellings but... Continue Reading →
Hello humans! So upon finishing The Young Elites series, I still hadn’t got quite enough of Marie Lu. That sounds somewhat more ominous than I meant it to…I mean her books (of course). So I decided to jump right in with the Legend series which, while it is very different from The Young Elites is... Continue Reading →
Hello humans! I will forever be grateful to my local library’s eBook service for letting me read hundreds of wonderful books for free without having to leave the comfort of my bed (or sofa or comfy chair or wherever else I happen to be). One such book was Undercover Princess which I first came across... Continue Reading →
Hello humans! Today’s book review is another example of what I’m starting to think of as a kind of sub-sub-genre. By that, I mean books (and it is mostly YA books) that divide things by gender and make readers looking for intersectionality a little uncomfortable. I’m looking at you Eve of Man. Ascension is, in... Continue Reading →
Hello Humans! Finally, it is time for round three of my journey through all things Marie Lu and also for the final book in The Young Elites series! It’s been a journey I can tell you that and I’m excited to get to reading and reviewing Legend and the rest of that trilogy (and then... Continue Reading →
Hello humans! Remember back when I was on honeymoon and I binge read the entire Kingfountain series in three days? Well, I wish I could binge read Jeff Wheeler’s latest series but unfortunately, only one book has been written so far! I was lucky enough to get to read Storm Glass a little ahead of...
