Review: Foul Heart Huntsman

Today, one of my most anticipated reads of the year releases! Foul Heart Huntsman is a force of nature. It brings the Secret Shanghai series to a triumphant finish and wraps up one of the best YA series I have read for the past few years. 

Review: A Study in Drowning

From one phenomenal book to another, Ava Reid is an author I am obsessed with. This is a deeply Gothic and atmospheric novel with flourishes of magic, mayhem and murder but it is also one deeply rooted in reality. A Study in Drowning is a masterclass in pacing, characterisation and tension, with a beautiful meditation on stories and who gets to have an authorial voice.

Recent Reads #94

Review: Damned If You Do

Today, I'm delighted to be reviewing the stunning Damned If You Do by Alex Brown. I went into this knowing very little about this book beyond the premise of a queer Buffy the Vampire Slayer meeting Filipino folklore in this horror comedy about a high school stage manager who accidentally sells her soul to a demon. That intersection of folklore and theatrical drama made me want to pick it up and Brown took me completely by surprise. I was blown away by the strength of this book.
