Review: Queen of Nothing

So I was late to the party for this series and I only read the first book at the end of last year just before the second book came out in January 2019. I have been so so excited about this third book and when the publication was brought forward […]

Review: Stepsister

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: Darkdawn

I finished Godsgrave in May this year. Oh man, I was furious with Jay when I finished it. I wanted to throw a tantrum for that cliffhanger ending. So quite clearly I was counting down the days until I could read Darkdawn. If you are reading this then you are […]

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 […]

I have tried so many times to read Little Women but I get to the same point every time (when the older girls go to the new years eve party. I had a rough idea of some of the story but this adaptation was beautiful. The March girls all have […]

Review: Scarlet

After I devoured Cinder I jumped straight into Scarlet. I am a sucker for retellings and this series does it so well. Marissa puts her own twist on these much-loved classic stories. These are not your damsels in distress let me tell you. These girls are kicking ass and fighting […]

Review: Cinder

I love a retelling and I have heard lots about this series. Thankfully this did not disappoint. This book is set in the future, in New Beijing. A fourth world war has happened and we are now in peace times, well at least between the countries on Earth. Yes not […]

Review: Red Rising

This is another one of those books that have a lot of hype. I heard a lot of good things so I was excited to dive into this. I love an underdog. I really do. Darrow was an easy character to root for. He is a reluctant hero who has […]

Review: Finale

I recently caught up on this series after hearing people rave about it. I quickly got caught up in the magic of this world. The first book was from Scarlett’s POV and the second from Tella’s. This third one switches POV from chapter to chapter. I love books with multiple […]
