I picked up several brilliant books this month and have read the vast majority of them! I had pre-ordered The Vanishing Stair, Fierce Fragile Hearts, King of Scars, The Extinction Trials: Rebel, The Burning and On The Come Up from Waterstones, so they all arrived early. I bought Allegedly, Heartstopper and Enchanteé as mid-revision pick-me-ups and I managed … Continue reading February Haul

I introduced this idea last week and I really enjoyed it, so I'm continuing with all the books I've read since 15th February. 1. The Twisted Tree by Rachel Burge 💙 A gripping, atmospheric and dark tale filled with intricate mythology, interesting characters and chilling magic. This is such a poignant and eerie book with a beautiful … Continue reading Weekly Wrap-Up #3
I was lucky enough to get my request of this magical book approved by My Kinda Book, so thanks to them, Amber Ivatt and Pan Macmillan for gifting me a free copy in exchange for an honest review (though I now intend to buy the finished book, as it looks so beautiful). Enchantée by Gita … Continue reading Enchantée Review
Today, I'm participating in another Top Ten Tuesday, which is hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl and this week's prompt is Books With Under 2,000 Reviews/Ratings. I've gone one step further and chosen ten books that had under a thousand ratings on Goodreads.

I'm trying to be more organised and stick to my schedule this time, so today I'm sharing all the books I've read since 8th February. 1. The … Continue reading Weekly Wrap-Up #2

#SixForSunday is a weekly prompt hosted by Steph at A Little But a Lot in which we’re encouraged to share 6 books or book-related opinions on a theme. This week's theme is Favourite LGBT+ Characters and I'm going to choose characters that haven't got as much hype as say Simon from Simon v.s. the Homo Sapiens Agenda or Jesper/Wylan from the Six of Crows duology. I am such a character-driven reader, so all of these characters were so memorable and challenge stereotypes around their sexuality.
Today, I'm sharing my review of an emotional, unforgettable firecracker of a book that I want everyone to read. Anger Is A Gift Review: Trigger Warnings: police violence/brutality (often graphic and intense scenes) panic attacks death violence (often graphic and intense scenes) racism ableism racial profiling Six years ago, Moss Jefferies' father was murdered by an … Continue reading Anger Is A Gift Review
