But yes, those following this blog will know that Leigh Bardugo quickly became one of my favourite authors this year and so I couldn't neglect her... Continue Reading →
Hello Humans! Tis I with a book review that's been a long time coming. I forget who exactly it was that got me excited about reading The Raven Boys. I suspect it was Paper Fury but honestly I'm not sure. Either way, I picked up TRB as part of a Blackwells 3 for 2 deal and I... Continue Reading →
Hello Humans! Another book review rears it's head as the year continues on at a pace.

Morning mortals! More science fiction today, and a quite hefty dose of philosophy. I've got a lot to say about this one so I think it's better we get straight to the reviewing. Goodreads Summary: Mycroft Canner is a convict. For his crimes he is required, as is the custom of the 25th century, to... Continue Reading →
Morning mortals! This week's TTT theme is a tricky one...how does one choose only 10 books from all of the wonderful 2018 releases? Seriously? I've made at least 3 lists of books I want to purchase and they just keep getting longer and longer. I'm going to have to start working harder if I... Continue Reading →
