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 →
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 Goblin Emperor, Katherine Addison – Readalong
Hello Humans! Welcome to another readalong post, as you may recall from my The Tangled Lands readalong, today (because I do intend to finish this book in a day) I'll be reading The Goblin Emperor by Katherine Addison. This book was recently released in the UK by Oxford-based publisher Solaris with a stunning foiled cover that just called... Continue Reading →
The True Queen, Zen Cho – Book Review
Hello Humans! I'm finally catching up with some of my review copies for the start of April - I was so tired at the end of March that I fell further behind than I would normally like to (but also it feels as though SO many books got published in the last fortnight and there... Continue Reading →
The Kingdom of Copper, S.A. Chakraborty – Book Review
Hello Humans! Today's review is for a book that I have been hotly anticipating since I read the first book in the series last year. The Kingdom of Copper is the second book in The Daevabad Trilogy, the first book being The City of Brass. I gave the first book five stars and I was excited to have the... Continue Reading →
The Wolf in the Whale, Jordanna Max Brodsky – Book Review
Hello Humans! Today's review is for upcoming adult fantasy The Wolf in the Whale. I was on a bit of an adult fantasy kick at the end of last year, largely because I was attempting to read the last few items on my NetGalley shelf and I had been procrastinating some of the adult titles. It... Continue Reading →
Fierce like a Firestorm, Lana Popoviç – Book Review
Hello humans! If you haven't come across Wicked Like a Wildfire yet then I urge you to go and read my review and then maybe buy a copy for yourself (or not, I'm not your mother). I read Wicked like a Wildfire last year and really enjoyed it, but it took me a while to get to... Continue Reading →
The Navigator’s Touch, Julia Ember – Book Review
Hello humans! I think we all have that one book that we lend to everyone we know. For me that has been The Seafarer's Kiss by Julia Ember. I don't think there is anyone left in my life to whom I haven't talked about this queer retelling of The Little Mermaid. So, naturally, when the chance came to... Continue Reading →
Charmcaster, Sebastien De Castell – Book Review
Hello humans! I hope you are well and not struggling as much as I am with how darned fast this year is going! I swear this year, the only thing I’m on top of is my Goodreads challenge (it’s the important things). But enough about my spiral into the void! I’m here to review the... Continue Reading →
The Poppy War, R. F. Kuang – Book Review
Hello humans! Today’s review is, I believe, on quite a few people’s want-to-read lists. I’d encountered The Poppy War on many a Waiting on Wednesday post and in quite a few anticipated read lists as well. I’m bringing more adult fantasy reviews onto the blog as and when I can so I jumped at the... Continue Reading →
The Smoke Thieves, Sally Green – Book Review
Hello humans! We’re back in the safe, comfortable world of YA Fantasy after yesterday’s (incredibly successful) foray into contemporary. The Smoke Thieves was one of those books that I knew I wanted to read but it wasn’t high up on my priority list because it felt like it was going to be too much ‘demon’... Continue Reading →
The Queens of Innis Lear, Tessa Gratton – Book Review
Hello humans! Yesterday I reviewed The City of Brass which I thought was quite a long book. Today I’m reviewing another lengthy read from the Month of March. The Queens of Innis Lear is a lengthy 576 pages and honestly, I think it’s worth every word. This book is going even further to prove that... Continue Reading →
