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! A bit of a break from the fantasy reviews on which I've been focussing of late. The eagle-eyed among you will recall my review of One Way back in September of last year. Well, the delightful people at Gollancz sent me a copy of the sequel to review - how did No Way hold up... Continue Reading →
Hello Humans! It’s finally time to review one of my most anticipated reads of 2019. There have been quite a few of them early this year (in fact, my next one isn’t until May) and it’s been amazing to get to review so many of them. In this case, the author reached out to bloggers...

Hello Humans! More mini-reviews? I read six books during our Bookaneerathon weekend and I thought it would be mean to ask you to read all the reviews in one post - so here is part two of my library reads mini-reviews (my third of such posts... this is getting confusing!). All Amazon links are affiliate... Continue Reading →
Hello Humans! I enjoyed writing my mini-reviews for library reads last time so I thought I would give it a whirl once more. I've been a little trigger happy with that request button lately so there will absolutely be a few more posts like this in the coming weeks/months Amazon links are affiliate links The...

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 →
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 →
Hello Humans! Are you ready to head into SPACE? That's right, if the cover image didn't give it away - today I'm reviewing some science fiction. Do You Dream of Terra Two was one of those books that hooked me with an interesting concept but that took me quite a while to actually get to? However,... Continue Reading →
Hello Humans! Today I'm reviewing another one of my end of 2018 reads, Helena Coggan's The Orphanage of Gods. As with most of my end of year reads, I had pretty much no idea what to expect when I picked this book up and what I ended up reading was certainly something new. This is a YA... Continue Reading →
Hello Humans! I’ve been so into my readalongs lately that it feels like a hot minute since I’ve written a book review! Having the chance to write a review for a book as cool as Our Child of the Stars is always a little bit daunting, I feel as if I’m going to miss something... Continue Reading →
Hello Humans! Welcome back to my second ever readalong post! I'm delighted to be starting Dry, a book that was one of my Christmas presents. That's the beauty of the TBR Tea Cup I suppose, last year it took me until May to actually read some of my Christmas books! If you want to find out more... Continue Reading →
Hello Humans! I'm trying something a little...different. I realised at the end of last year that I was pretty much only reviewing the ARCs I had and barely ever wrote reviews for the books I bought, whether they were new titles or backlist books. I want to change that but I'm also aware that the... Continue Reading →
