The Wrong Side of Kai is the first book from Estelle Maskame that I’ve read despite hearing a lot about her. Admittedly I’ve purposely steered clear from her books because they all seem like they’d be fluff and not really my thing. I’m also aware of how young she is – when The Wrong Side…

I Can’t Keep This Secret! – Two Can Keep A Secret Review
Ok, complete GUSH time! Anyone who has been following me, either on here or on Instagram, for a while will know that I am a huge fan of Karen M. McManus just from her first book, One of Us is Lying. So naturally I couldn’t wait to read her second novel Two Can Keep A Secret! Considering I awarded One…
We’ve got a Squib here – How to Hang a Witch Review
How to Hang a Witch was gifted to me by my amazing friend (go check her out here) and I was all geared up for using it as a Halloween read! The Salem Witch Trials is a fascinating, yet tragic, event in history and. I’m all about the Salem witch trials, so I was all about this…
The sex-ed you didn’t get, but wish you had! Jack of Hearts (and other parts) Review!
When I first came across Jack of Hearts (and other parts) I thought it was probably going to be one of those books that’s important, but would end up being a pretty average read – not terrible, but not stand out either. Oh boy was I wrong! It was absolutely everything I was hoping for…
I wish we had more than spare parts – Spare and Found Parts Review
Spare and Found Parts was a complete impulse buy for me at an author event at Waterstones where author Sarah Maria Griffin was in attendance and a speaker. Originally I didn’t really have any intention of picking up a copy of Spare and Found Parts (not out of any negative feeling, but because I’d never…
A pathetic end to an increasingly bad series – War Storm review
Here’s your one and only warning: This review/rant contains spoilers for War Storm and pretty much the whole Red Queen series. So if that’s not your thing, then away with you – because I have a lot to say and I can’t say it without spoilers.
Suffering the Fate has never been so much fun! – The Fates Divide Review
In all honesty I’ve been looking forward to The Fates Divide for a long time. I’ll be even more honest here in the interest of transparency: I was not Roth’s biggest fan after the Divergent series. This was mostly because I felt that the entire series was pretty derivative of The Hunger Games (yes I…
I’d prefer to be anywhere else but here… Nowhere Else But Here review
Nowhere Else But Here by Rachel Cotton is one of those books that I’d imagine, whilst not my usual auto-buy genre, is a go-to for a palette cleanser or lighter book if I’ve read something particularly heavy or dark. So I knew going into this that I likely wouldn’t be discussing the intellectual credentials, theme…
You won’t feel like you’ve bled your time! Everless review
I have to get this out of the way first: I’ve heard a lot of people compare Everless to a movie called In Time – I’ve not seen this movie so I went into Everless with a fresh perspective. So I don’t wanna see any comments saying “but it’s just like that movie!” – I…
