The Iron Will of Genie Lo, F C Yee – Book Review
Hello Humans! Who remembers when I reviewed The Epic Crush of Genie Lo back in July of 2017? Well, it's two and a bit years later and I'm here to review the sequel and end to the duology: The Iron Will of Genie Lo - will it live up to book one and does the wait make... Continue Reading →
Beyond the Shadowed Earth, Joanna Ruth Meyer – Book Review
Hello Humans! I did mean it about the January releases, next up is Joanna Ruth Meyer's Beyond the Shadowed Earth, which is set in the same world as (but is not a direct sequel to) Beneath the Haunted Sea. I actually haven't read anything by Joanna Ruth Meyer before - I had wanted to read Echo North last... Continue Reading →
Infinity Son, Adam Silvera – Book Review
Hello Humans! The January publications just keep on coming, don't they? I first came across today's read when at YALC back in July, there was the usual mad dash in (or slow shuffle for those trapped in hellish queues) and every morning it seemed people were falling over each other to grab an arc of...

The Shadow Saint, Gareth Hanrahan – Book Review
Hello Humans! There are so many wonderful books publishing at the start of this year, I can barely wrap my head around them all - but I'm doing my best to get reviews written! Today I'm reviewing the second book in Gareth Hanrahan's Black Iron Legacy series, I adored The Gutter Prayer and I was so excited to... Continue Reading →
The Night Country, Melissa Albert – Book Review

Fate of the Fallen, Kel Kade – Book Review
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...

The Chosen, Taran Matharu – Book Review
Hello Humans! The end of the year is almost always a reading scramble for me (and many others). In my case, it's not a dash to finish my Goodreads challenge, but a desperate attempt to take advantage of the fact that fewer books are published in December - so I can try and get ahead...

The Guinevere Deception, Kiersten White – Book Review
Hello Humans! You may or may not have been expecting this review if you follow me on my Youtube channel or my Twitter. For those who do not (why not?) I will summarise: I love Kiersten White with all of my RUBBISH heart and I will get hopelessly excited about anything and everything she publishes,... Continue Reading →
Otherlife, Jason Segal & Kirsten Miller – Book Review
Hello Humans! How many ‘virtual/augmented reality’ books have I read and reviewed to date? Honestly, I don’t think I could tell you, it feels like a lot. Interestingly, most of them have been either standalone books or duologies as opposed to series. The one that definitely is a series is the one I am, obviously,... Continue Reading →
Battle Beyond the Dolestars, Chris McCrudden – Book Review
Hello Humans! It’s rather rare that I find myself reading books that are I quite often find books hilarious because they are either bad or silly, but more often than not, the kind of thing I find myself reading is fairly bleak fantasy. Today’s book could not be further from that - Battle Beyond the... Continue Reading →
Sisters of Shadow and Light, Sara B. Larson – Book Review
Hello Humans! Recently, I feel like most of my reading has been taken up with chunky fantasy books. I love a big book as much as the next person but found I really wanted a bit of a palette cleanser. Enter Sara B. Larson’s book Sisters of Shadow and Light. I realised I actually really... Continue Reading →
