Good morning mortals! For those interested, I'm writing this blog post months and months in advance of me actually publishing it, which feels appropriate when reviewing science fiction. What will the world be like when I publish this I wonder? Can it have got any worse? Has the thing I'm dreading happening happened? I'm married... Continue Reading →
Top 10 Favourite Books of 2017
Hello humans! This week the TTT theme is both exciting and terrifying at the same time. I read so many amazing books this year it'll be hard to pick just 10. So I'll try and limit myself to new releases and maybe do another post later on about the top ten books I read in 2017?... Continue Reading →
The Fandom, Anna Day ARC Book Review
Morning mortals! Yes I was one of the many throngs of people who stood in a queue for ages not too long to be honest to get my hands on a copy of The Fandom. This was the perfect gift to be giving away at a convention, for obvious reasons, but how does it stand up... Continue Reading →
Renegades, Thomas Locke Book Review
Morning mortals! You may be a little confused, didn't I review Renegades yesterday? Why yes you are correct. Today I am reviewing a different book that is also called Renegades. I appear to have slipped back into old bad habits of reading sequels before the first book in series, I have too much on my reading list at the... Continue Reading →
Renegades, Marissa Meyer Book Review (Spoiler Free)
Morning mortals! Have you got your cape on? Have you unbuttoned your shirt just enough to reveal the lycra super suit concealed beneath your otherwise ordinary work attire? Are you wearing magical glasses that conceal your identity despite the fact that glasses don't work like that and maybe you need better friends who actually know what... Continue Reading →
Autonomous, Annalee Newitz Book Review
Hello humans! Back for another book review are we? Today's review is a little confusing for me. My reading schedule is totally out of the window at the moment and it's forcing me to read a lot of the ARC's that have been sitting on my TBR for a while. Autonomous was one such ARC. I'm...

Weave a Circle Round, Kari Maaren Book Review
Morning mortals! Today's book review is another one of those books that are just a little bit weird. Now if you know me well (or you've been following Chaininteraction for a while) you'll know that I'm a big fan of weird. In a world of predictable fantasy fiction, anything that can make me say 'huh?'... Continue Reading →
Want to Read Wednesday – Renegades
Hello humans! Back again for another W2RW I see? Today's book choice is one that I am actually planning to read really soon (which never happens?!). I just binge read the entirety of the Lunar Chronicles in about 4 days (I got a little bit caught up) and absolutely loved them - look out for... Continue Reading →
Blackbird N. D. Gomes Book Review
Morning Mortals! It's time for another edition of 'Judith branches out into contemporary YA because she picked up an ARC at YALC and felt bad not reviewing it'. But that's not a catchy title so let's just call this 'out of my comfort zone'. Goodreads Summary: My name is Alex. I am fifteen years old,... Continue Reading →
The Dark Intercept, Julia Keller Book Review
Morning Mortals! Back for another book review are we? Or here for the first time? Either way welcome, I'm excited to share my thoughts on one of October's new YA releases The Dark Intercept. Goodreads Summary: The State controls your emotions. What would you pay to feel free? In a radiant world of endless summer, the... Continue Reading →
Zero Repeat Forever, G. S. Prendergast Book Review
Morning mortals! Today I'm excited to be reviewing one of my most anticipated books of 2017 Zero Repeat Forever. This book has a little bit of fairytale, a lot of science fiction and a lot of very interesting moments. How did it shape up? Goodreads Summary: He has no voice, or name, only a rank, Eighth....

Otherworld, Jason Segel and Kirsten Miller Book Review
Morning mortals! Today I'm happy to be reviewing Otherworld, a new book which (in the UK) is coming from the same publishing house that brought us Illuminae and Gemina. I don't know if that's particularly interesting to you but I always find it cool to look at what different publishers are doing and what similarities are between the titles... Continue Reading →
