Hello Humans! July Judith here writing another review that I know probably won't see the light of day until August/September because I did a lot of reading of review copies in the summer - oh well! Today I'm reviewing an LGBTQ+ novella that I think is something very exciting and special - keep on reading to... Continue Reading →

Come Tumbling Down, Seanan McGuire – Book Review
Hello Humans! A quick review today for a quick book. Many of you will know I love Seanan McGuire's Wayward Children series, but have never been able to justify going back and buying the beautiful hardbacks for myself - I want to but my bank account never agrees! But with the release of Come Tumbling Down in... Continue Reading →
Prosper’s Demon, K.J. Parker – Book Review
Hello Humans! How often do you read novellas? I must say for me it’s fairly infrequent - I tend to find all my time is taken up by reading huge chunky fantasy tomes and I don’t gravitate towards shorter books very often.

In the interests of keeping my reading fresh, I thought I’d... Continue Reading →
The Tangled Lands, Paola Bagicalupi, Tobias S Buckell – Readalong
Hello Humans! I'll admit, I was feeling a little defeated after my last readalong, I was heading dramatically slumpwards with no real feeling for what I wanted to read next. Enter the fabled TBR jar which prompted me to read The Tangled Lands. This was the perfect book for me to read as it is just the... Continue Reading →
A Court of Frost and Starlight, Sarah J Maas – Mini Review
Hello humans! Since it’s the end of the month and that means a lot of TBRs and Wrap-Ups I thought it was probably time for a mini review. That means a slightly shorter review than normal (although I’m only at the start of this post, who knows – my mind might wander?). So yes, I... Continue Reading →
The Young Queens, Kendare Blake – Book Review
Hello humans! I’ve been working my way through the Three Dark Crowns series over the last year or so, since YALC 2017 and in anticipation of the end of the series which I believe is happening this year. I was therefore delighted to find that the novella/prequel The Young Queens was available on my Library’s... Continue Reading →
