REVIEW | The Spirit of Fire – Susanne Dunlap
Following on from Listen to the Wind, we resume our story in 13th Century France as our protagonists flee towards their goal of Montsegur before the French forces take the stronghold from the Cathars. I found the first half of the book a little slow to be honest, which surprised me with it being the Continue reading

REVIEW | Last Argument of Kings – Joe Abercrombie
I’ve had this review sitting here since I read this book in December – reading the entire trilogy last year. I adored this sotry and I can’t wait to pick up the standalones this year, and finally start A Little Hatred which I’ve had since it released (of course). Proof is boring. Proof is tiresome. Continue reading

REVIEW | Where Wisteria Falls – Chloe Openshaw
That ending! I didn’t see that coming! It was gripping and completely emotion-filled – however, it also left me with some questions about other happenings in the story (unless I misremembered them). Lucy Lane disappeared six years ago from her grandparent’s house, and no one knows what happened that day. The family go back every Continue reading

REVIEW | Verity – Colleen Hoover
“What you read will taste so bad at times, you’ll want to spit it out, but you’ll swallow these words and they will become part of you, part of your gut, and you will hurt because of them.” This book! I haven’t read any Colleen Hoover before, and I understand this is different to her Continue reading

REVIEW | A Heart So Fierce and Broken – Brigid Kemmerer
“Choices are never easy. There are good and bad options, but the most dangerous is to not make any choice at all.” I’d heard mixed reviews about this book – I’m not sure if I just lowered my expectations, but I loved this continuation of the story. We do move on to newer characters, and Continue reading

February TBR
January, the longest month of the year, is over! What are you reading this month? I’m taking part in a couple of readalongs and bookclubs over on Instagram. I think this is the first time in a while I’ve had a TBR that’s a bit more set in stone, and more than one or two Continue reading

REVIEW | Frankenstein – Mary Shelley
“ I have love in me the likes of which you can scarcely imagine and rage the likes of which you would not believe. If I cannot satisfy the one, I will indulge the other.” I want to love this book, but I just don’t. Frankenstein’s Monster is my favourite character – his tale is Continue reading

📚 REVIEW | Northanger Abbey – Jane Austen
If you haven’t read this book – I guess you consider the following spoilery. You have been warned! I read this as a buddy read with a small group of people on bookstagram, and also for one of my NEWTs prompts. I adored this book even more second time around. Although Catherine is a bit Continue reading
About Me
Books and food enthusiast. I discovered a love for reading in my late teens, so you’ll see me catching up on older series quite often. I also love to travel around the UK, where I live, and picking up some crafty hobbies – I hope to share snippets of this amongst all the book content. Other interests include gaming, podcasts, drinking too much tea, and trying to personify autumn.
