Today, I’m focusing on three fantastic books that are all either already released or are … Continue reading Mini Review Monday #28
Last year, I renamed ‘Weekly’ Wrap-Ups to Recent Reads, as I feel like that reflects the timescale between posts more accurately! As ever, today I will be briefly reviewing all the books I’ve read since my last post in approximately fifty words.

I managed to read 13 books in October and November, including some utterly stand-out titles. I’m currently drafting a … Continue reading October and November Wrap-Up
This Own Voices novel sounded like everything I love about YA fantasy with rich world-building, superb characters and a touch of romance. I adored the fact that it draws on Portuguese legend and couldn’t wait to see how that would inform Pinguicha’s lusciously bingeable writing. Thank you so much to Alexandra Mathew at Entangled Teen … Continue reading Review: A Curse of Roses
The entire premise of Those Who Prey really hooked me and it felt like it buried under my skin, as I haven’t been able to get it out of my head since.
