Hello Humans! If you read my readalong of Dragon of Ash & Stars then this post will come as no surprise! Yes, I am finally reading the final book in the Chaos Walking series - having bought them at the end of 2018. FINALLY. This series has broken my heart on more than one occasion so prepare for...

Dragon of Ash and Stars, H. Leighton Dickson – Readalong
Hello Humans! I've had some free time and some books to read so this readalong is coming slightly sooner than I had planned - lucky you! (This is me optimistically writing that at the start of the book so it could be a complete lie and I could be finishing the book after being in... Continue Reading →
The Cerulean, Amy Ewing – Readalong
Hello Humans! I don't know if it feels the same to you, but it feels like an age since I read The Ask and the Answer and promised a readalong for The Cerulean. Well...it's finally happening. I've had to sit down and do some serious reading organisation because I was feeling simultaneously overwhelmed by my ARC TBR... Continue Reading →
The Ask and the Answer, Patrick Ness – Readalong
Hello Humans! After quite a few books in between (I got excited about both library books and new releases), I'm here with my readalong for The Ask and the Answer by Patrick Ness. I read The Knife of Never Letting Go way back in June of 2018 and the sequels have been sat on my TBR since... Continue Reading →
Ruin and Rising, Leigh Bardugo – Readalong
Hello Humans! Another readalong? Of course. I'm going to enjoy tracing these back through the year, seeing how my reading changes, it's kind of like a little reading diary I can look back on. But yes, when I finished A Winter's Promise I said I would read Ruin and Rising next, which will then finally free... Continue Reading →
A Winter’s Promise, Christelle Dabos – Readalong
Hello Humans! I know, it's been a while since my last readalong. But it's not because I haven't been reading, it would have just been too much to lug this rather hefty hardback up to Scotland and back - so now I'm firmly on the ground back in Oxford I am delighted to be able... Continue Reading →
Nothing but Sky, Amy Trueblood – Readalong
Hello Humans! You know the drill by this point, I read the book and every so often I stop and tell you how I'm feeling about it, it's simple yet effective and I have a great time doing it. In this post, as I said in my readalong for Circle of Shadows, I'll be reading Nothing but... Continue Reading →
Circle of Shadows, Evelyn Skye – Readalong
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 →
Abhorsen, Garth Nix – Readalong
Hello Humans! Those who read my readalong for Elantris will have seen this coming, those that didn't - surprise! I actually listened to the first two books in this series Sabriel and Lirael on audiobook so this is my first read of a book in the Abhorsen series and I'm very excited. I'm actually battling with some side effects to... Continue Reading →
Elantris, Brandon Sanderson – Readalong
Hello Humans! I promised it at the end of my Fire & Heist readalong and here we are! I'm writing this intro having just finished the first six or so chapters of Elantris and I am already confident that I'm going to have a much better time! I'm still in the early stages of reading Brandon Sanderson, I've... Continue Reading →
Fire & Heist, Sarah Beth Durst – Readalong
Hello Humans! I promised it in my The Dark Vault readalong and lo and behold I have delivered. I hadn't even heard of Fire & Heist before it arrived in my December Fairyloot box, but I'm open to the idea of anything with dragons in...though this seemed an interesting concept. Join me as I read through this book, checking in... Continue Reading →
The Dark Vault, V E Schwab – Readalong
Hello Humans! I hope you are ready for quite a long readalong...or perhaps a short one if I end up doing what I always do and reading 600 pages in one go in the bath - nobody's perfect. But yes, it is finally time, months after release day when my preorder arrived, to read The Dark... Continue Reading →
