Review: Beyond the Shore and Shadows

Thank you to Chantal for my copy of this book. I really enjoyed the first book in this series so when I was offered book 2 as an ARC I knew I had to see how Lena’s story ended. I found it really difficult to get into this book because […]

Review: A Vow So Bold and Deadly

I’m going to start by saying this review will most likely contain spoilers for the first 2 books. If you haven’t read them I would suggest doing so and then coming back. I LOVED the first two books in this series. Book one blew me away and gave me such […]

Thank you to One More Chapter for my copy of this book via Netgalley. This is only the second audiobook I have listened to on Netgalley shelf. The app has come a long way since the first one I tried and I will definitely be requesting more. Our main character […]

A Curse So Dark and Lonely was one of my top reads in 2019! I love a Beauty and the Beast retelling and this is up there with some of the best. I have been waiting for this for what seems like forever. The last book was told almost exclusively […]

I love a good fairytale and I am very partial to a retelling too. I originally requested this book on netgalley but I listened to the audiobook which I borrowed vias my library app Borrowbox. The book’s main character is one of the ‘ugly’ stepsisters from Cinderella. Isabelle has spent […]

Review: Winter

This is the final book in the Lunar Chronicles. I loved the first three and I couldn’t wait to see how the story ended. Picking up right where Cress ended Emporer Kai has been ‘kidnapped’ and Queen Levana is furious. Levana is one hell of a woman and I have […]
