Hello Humans! Another book bites the dust and I've got another review to write! Today I'm reviewing the latest in Victoria Schwab's middle-grade Cassidy Blake series. I quite enjoyed City of Ghosts when I read it last year so I was looking forward to seeing how Schwab tackled a novel set in Paris. Goodreads Summary: Trouble... Continue Reading →
Hello Humans! What’s the longest you’ve ever stuck with a series that didn’t grip you? Where you kept picking up sequels despite knowing you were never going to find a new favourite? Or are you one of those incredibly self-aware people who can rest knowing they read book one and don’t need to pick up... Continue Reading →
Hello Humans! Are you ready for my review of one of my favourite reads of the year so far? I'm talking, of course, about Frances Hardinge's Deeplight. I mean, this book had everything going for it, it's about the ocean and stories and it was written by one of my absolute favourite authors. I was so... Continue Reading →
Hello Humans! If you've already watched my August TBR video you'll know that I was a little trepidatious about reading the third book in Connie Glynn's Rosewood Chronicles series. My biggest problem with these books to date is that they have felt incredibly queer bait-y and haven't managed to do anything more than hint at... Continue Reading →
Hello Humans! Remember last year, how every single book I reviewed seemed to be a retelling of some sort? One such book was The Haven which managed to distinguish itself by being a retelling of Oliver Twist as opposed to any kind of fairytale. I enjoyed The Haven, finding it a nice ‘street kids’ story...

Hello Humans! There are a number of people who, I would guess, have dreamed about being a princess at some point in their life. Unless that princess had a dog I wasn't particularly enamoured but who am I to judge others? Connie Glynn's Undercover Princess was a book published a couple of years ago that fulfilled...

Hello Humans! Welcome to today's book review. I believe I've mentioned this before but Caroline Lawrence's The Roman Mysteries series was one of the series that really got me into reading as a child - after I was bought the first book as a present for a flight to Rome. They were also a big part of... Continue Reading →
Hello Humans! It's not hugely often that I delve into the world of middle grade (I think my heart is too dark for that kind of wholesome content) but when I do, it tends to be when I see something that I just can't get out of my head. Cogheart was one such book, the concept,... Continue Reading →
Hello Humans! Today I am reviewing another collection of short stories, I think the last time I did this was with How to Fracture a Fairytale so it was fun to get back into a shorter medium. I haven't actually read any of the other Young Explorer's Adventure Guides before, so I can't speak to how this book... Continue Reading →
Hello Humans! Those of you who follow me on Twitter will know that a couple of weeks ago when I was off work sick, I decided to read the entirety of the Alanna series by Tamora Pierce and absolutely loved them. I also reviewed Tempests and Slaughter earlier in the year, so it was only a matter... Continue Reading →
Hello humans! Has it got to a point where I will buy pretty much everything that Victoria Schwab produces? She could bring out a book about the nuts and bolts of 19th-century steam trains and I would still preorder the special edition! But I was genuinely very excited about the release of City of Ghosts, which promised... Continue Reading →
Hello Humans! Yes I know it's only October but we've got the heating on at home and I'm living exclusively in enormous woolly jumpers and blankets so it feels like the time to start talking about winter reads. I had the opportunity to read Amy Wilson's middle-grade novel Snowglobe and to share my thoughts with you,... Continue Reading →
