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

Goodbye 2019
Wow, this year HAS FLOWN! I can’t believe we’re leaving the decade – I feel so old right now! 2019 has had its ups and downs for me, more so than previous years I think. I’m in my mid-twenties and I feel I’m already having my mid-life crisis. I’m determined to make the next decade… Continue reading

REVIEW | The Kite Runner – Khaled Hosseini
“I opened my mouth, almost said something. Almost. The rest of my life might have turned out differently if I had. But I didn’t.” I find it so hard to rate books like this… I can’t say I enjoyed it – it’s an utterly heartbreaking story. Warning – I may get a bit spoilery depending… Continue reading

So over August, I participated in the NEWTs readathon set up by Book Roast. I’ve had an absolute blast, and one hell… 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.
