REVIEW | A Cup of Tea at the Mouth of Hell (Or, an Account of Catastrophe by Stroudmire McCloud, Demon) – Luke Tarzian
Synopsis from Goodreads: BRIEFLY, A WORD ABOUT ORDER Order is the focal point around which existence revolves. Without order there is only chaos. And in the halls of Damnation (pronounced Dam-NAWT-ion, thank you kindly) the first sign of impending chaos is a cup of tea made without the water having first been well and properly… Continue reading

REVIEW | Of Honey and Wildfires – Sarah Chorn
This was such a breath of fresh air. Not an overly happy one, as the storyline is not light, but I loved the way the world was built up.

REVIEW | The Kiss of Deception – Mary E. Pearson
It can take years to mold a dream. It takes only a fraction of a second for it to be shattered. I definitely cannot wait to dive into the next one! Although slow – which isn’t always a bad thing – and featuring some of my most disliked tropes, it pulled me out of a… 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.
