Hello Humans! I am a big fan of pretty much every Naomi Novik book I have ever read (I still need to finish the Temeraire books please be patient with me) so A Deadly Education was very high up on my (mental) Most Anticipated Books for 2020 list. I was lucky enough to be granted access to... Continue Reading →

Potential... Continue Reading →

Hello Humans! Like many of you, I'm sure, I'm always on the look out for books with queer representation - and by that I mean books that explore all the different kinds of identity, I want books that explore sexuality, books that explore gender identity, books that explore attraction, and all the other different facets...
