Hello Humans! I'm still here blasting through May releases like some kind of reading superhero (albeit a superhero that turns up a little bit late once all the fighting is done because she was really busy in April). Today I'm reviewing a YA fantasy Latinx-inspired novel, Maya Motayne's Nocturna. Goodreads Summary: Set in a Latinx-inspired world,... Continue Reading →
Hello Humans! As it was promised so it shall be! I finished reading Abhorsen and the TBR tea-cup chose Circle of Shadows, a book I received in the January Fairyloot box as my next read. I will say, I've seen a couple of fairly negative reviews for this one, and I'm not 100% sold on the concept, so I'm... Continue Reading →
Hello humans! A whole year of Fairyloot, can you believe it? Ok, it's a little more than a year, I wanted the time to get this blog post right and in the meantime, another box may have arrived. However, I wanted to have a look back on twelve months of this particular subscription box, to... Continue Reading →
Hello humans! One of my absolute favourite things to collect is enamel pins and badges, I think it's the magpie in me, I just love shiny things. I recently added a couple of new additions to my collection and I thought it would be fun to talk about them with you and also have a... Continue Reading →
Hello humans! Has it taken me literally months to read this book after receiving it in a Fairyloot box? Why yes it has! Am I kicking myself for not getting to it sooner? Why yes I am! I feel like a lot of the hype for Everless has died down but I still wanted to tell you... Continue Reading →
HAPPY CHRISTMAS MORTALS! (Ok it's not christmas when I'm writing this but it will be when I post it so hello future me hope you got all the books you wanted). What better a day to review what I consider a winter read. Even the Darkest Stars was a book I received in Fairyloot which I definitely... Continue Reading →
Morning Mortals! Hope you're doing ok this fine morn (it may not be morn, you may not be well, I'm sorry if either of my hopes do not apply). Today I'm reviewing the wonderful Wicked Like a Wildfire which was the book chosen for August's Fairyloot box. I wasn't sure what to expect with this book so... Continue Reading →
Good morning humans! Today's book was the book that happened to come in the June Fairyloot book. This was the first time I didn't manage to guess what book was going to arrive so I was pleasantly surprised to get a copy of Roar which I have been meaning to read since all the ARC reviews...

Beep boop. Hello mortals. Can you believe July is over? I certainly can't. Two months until I get married...aaah! So in order to relax a little I'm sitting down and I'm writing down all the things I've loved this month, bookish and otherwise. Soothe yourself with the happy things I have discovered this month! Twitter... Continue Reading →
Guess who forgot to schedule her posts properly so has double posts for a lot of days this week? THIS GAL! So prepare yourself for not one, not two but THREE double doses of chain interaction this week. Yes I could have worked around it and rescheduled things but honestly I really like writing wrap...

Aloha! The sun is beginning to shine here in Oxford and so it feels entirely appropriate to review a book that has 'winter' in the name, of course! Wintersong was published back in February and fist came to my notice when I was looking through past inclusions in Fairyloot boxes. I managed to bag a... Continue Reading →
Modern day fairytales set in Brooklyn? Yes to the please. This little number caught my eye when I was idly browsing past Fairyloot boxes (I'm now a subscriber please anticipate much excitement when my first box arrives). I was also tempted by this when some of the reviews were calling it weird. I adore weird... Continue Reading →
