Hello Humans! Today I'm reviewing another one of my end of 2018 reads, Helena Coggan's The Orphanage of Gods. As with most of my end of year reads, I had pretty much no idea what to expect when I picked this book up and what I ended up reading was certainly something new. This is a YA... Continue Reading →
Dry, Neal Shusterman and Jarrod Shusterman – Readalong
Hello Humans! Welcome back to my second ever readalong post! I'm delighted to be starting Dry, a book that was one of my Christmas presents. That's the beauty of the TBR Tea Cup I suppose, last year it took me until May to actually read some of my Christmas books! If you want to find out more... Continue Reading →
Eve of Eridu, Alanah Andrews – Book Review
Hello humans! I keep saying it, and it continues to be true, I've had to review a lot of review copies lately. I'm hoping to have the majority of them out of the way by the end of the year, and then next year I have plans for how I'm going to balance things so... Continue Reading →
The Knife of Never Letting Go, Patrick Ness – Book Review
Hello Humans! I don’t often find myself thinking about the font in which my current read is written. It’s not something that crosses my mind. In fact, the only time I really stop to look at it is when books have an ‘about the typeface’ note in them (does anyone know why they put that... Continue Reading →
Vox, Christina Dalcher – Book Review
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 →
Spare and Found Parts, Sarah Maria Griffin – Book Review
Hello humans! Today’s review is another example of why I shouldn’t be allowed to shop the Kindle sale, I have no self-control and I just can’t resist shiny new books, whatever format they come in. I picked up a copy of Spare and Found Parts after a long while humming and ha-ing over whether to... Continue Reading →
All Rights Reserved, Gregory Scott Katsoulis – Book Review
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 →
The Book of M, Peng Shepherd – Book Review
Hello humans! Today I'm reviewing Peng Shepherd's The Book of M which I can only describe as a weird and kind of creepy dystopian novel. Books that toy with the idea of memory are often either wonderful or terrible for me and there doesn't seem to be much of an in between. This book is certainly... Continue Reading →
The Unit Ninni Holmqvist – Book Review
Hello humans! Today’s book keeps in line with the (unintentional) dystopian theme that seems to have emerged on the blog this month. The Unit is an adult science fiction, dystopian novel, so only a small departure from what I’m used to reading. It’s an interesting concept, no doubt, and it raises some important issues about... Continue Reading →
The Handmaid’s Tale, Margaret Atwood – Book Review
Hello humans! It’s time for another ‘reading and reviewing books by problematic authors is hard’ segment! With Margaret Atwood, it’s particularly hard since she’s so synonymous with feminism. Sadly, she’s become far more synonymous with white feminism which is not good at all. I bought this book because I felt like it was something I... Continue Reading →
Mortal Engines, Philip Reeve – Book Review
Hello humans! Today's book was one that I hadn't actually anticipated adding to my TBR in February but then it sort of...happened. It was one of those instances of books sneaking up on me and then having to read the entire series despite the fact that my actual TBR is looming dangerously. So yes, that's what... Continue Reading →
Deception, Teri Terry – Book Review
Hello humans! If you stopped by this morning you'll know that today I'm reviewing the first two books in Teri Terry's Dark Matter series. I enjoyed the first book Contagion but how did book two Deception fare? Goodreads Summary: An epidemic is sweeping the country. You are among the infected. There is no cure, and you cannot be...
