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

MINI REVIEW | Wilder Girls – Rory Power
We don’t get to choose what hurts us. ★★★☆☆ I breezed through this book. It didn’t wow me, and quite frankly it super creeped me out and made me feel a bit ill at times – crazy squeamish Hannah did not like some of these descriptions. But I grew to love these half-feral girls. And Continue reading

REVIEW | My Year of Rest and Relaxation – Ottessa Moshfegh
“Oh, sleep. Nothing else could ever bring me such pleasure, such freedom, the power to feel and move and think and imagine, safe from the miseries of my waking consciousness.” I wanted to try something different with this book, it’s unlike a lot (if not all) the books I’ve read before. I’m not sure it 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

January Wrap Up
Oh this month has flown by so fast! Which is good in a way for me, as its a super long wait to payday in Jan – but also, please don’t let 2020 go by as quickly as 2019 did… This month I parctipated in a GrishaVerse themed readathon over on Instagram, hosted by a Continue reading

REVIEW | The Starless Sea – Erin Morgenstern
Not all stories speak to all listeners, but all listeners can find a story that does, somewhere, sometime. In form form or another. This story spoke to me. Books within books, hidden libraries, people out of time, a romanticism to the story, and Zelda references!! Honestly, this book even made the gamer in me exceptionally Continue reading

REVIEW | The Guinevere Deception – Kiersten White
3 stars. I struggled with this book. There’s a lot that just doesn’t feel all that relevant (although this is a series, so it could be later I suppose), and nothing happens until the very end. The rest of the book is a little bland feeling… But I didn’t hate it, and I still enjoyed Continue reading

REVIEW | The Near Witch – Victoria Schwab
“Fear is a strange thing,” he used to say. “It has the power to make people close their eyes, turn away. Nothing good grows out of fear.” I meant to read this last year, as soon as it released. I’d wanted to read it for ages – it’s actually a re-release of her debut. But 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.
