#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
In addition to my TBR for #FFFebruaryReads, I've got some more books I'd like to read this month. Also, back in January, I said that every TBR will include at least one book for the Beat the Backlist Challenge (check out my TBR for that here). The Light Between Worlds by Laura Weymouth … Continue reading February TBR
Today I wanted to share all the books I read in January and my thoughts on them in 50 words or less.

I've recently found this amazing reading challenge for February (full details here), so of course, I'd love to take part! I'm aiming to get at least one bingo from this grid as well, so I'll update this page as I complete each book, with ✅ meaning I've completed it. My TBR: Toil & … Continue reading TBR for #FFFebruaryReads
I know it's not quite the end of January yet, but I highly doubt I'll be getting any more books between now and Friday! I want to continue doing my hauls as monthly posts (check out my one for November/December) and introduce Library Hauls to show just how often I use my local library. Anyway, … Continue reading January Haul
Today, I'm participating in another Top Ten Tuesday, which is hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl and this week's prompt is Books I Meant To Read In 2018 But Forgot. Unfortunately, I do have a bit of a list of these!
Today, I'm sharing three shorter (ish) reviews that all have sequels coming out this year that I can't wait to read. The Cruel Prince by Holly Black: Trigger warnings: abuse, murder, suicide One terrible morning, Jude and her sisters see their parents murdered in front of them. The terrifying assassin abducts all three girls to … Continue reading Mini Review Monday #5

This week's theme is Bookish Loves, which took me quite a while to write about. Six Things I Love In Books: Casual diversity that isn't the character's only … Continue reading Six For Sunday: Bookish Loves
Today, I've hit a bit of a milestone with my blogging, as this is my 100th post! To celebrate, I wanted to review one of my favourite contemporaries from last year and an stunning fantasy that's already a contender for my favourites of this year. I want to start off with a review of the … Continue reading My 100th post (aka me being very happy about some books)
