This was a novel I discovered after purchasing my first ever book subscription box from Litjoy Crate a few years ago. I don’t buy monthly subscriptions from book subscription services very often (the most recent was OwlCrate’s January 2022 Box, which I reviewed here). I won’t go through all the other bookish items I received in myContinue reading “Book Review: The Last Namsara by Kristen Ciccarelli”

My Favourite Dystopian Novels
Since I’ve reviewed some of the most popular dystopian novels previously on my blog, I thought now would be a great time to make a short list of some of my all-time favourite dystopian novels. When dystopian novels were popular back in 2014, I read a lot of dystopian novels. Why? I don’t really know,Continue reading “My Favourite Dystopian Novels”
Book Review: The Kingdom of Back by Marie Lu
This was a novel I did not expect to fall in love with. Okay, to be fair I say that with all most all the novels I read, but this time I actually mean it! Historical fiction is a genre I don’t necessarily reach for when I’m in a reading rut, so I was trulyContinue reading “Book Review: The Kingdom of Back by Marie Lu”
Book Review: The Chronicles of Narnia by C. S. Lewis
This is a book series that I think a lot of people hold close to their hearts but also have a lot of opinions on. I first came across this series a few years after I watched the movies and I’ll be honest, I found the books a little bit boring (I was in highContinue reading “Book Review: The Chronicles of Narnia by C.

Book Review: She Who Became The Sun by Shelly Parker-Chan
I think we all know that I follow a lot of Bookstagram accounts; I read this novel because one of my favourite accounts recommended it. So, I trusted that account and read this book (technically I listened to it since I borrowed the e-audiobook from my local library) and I am very thankful because thisContinue reading “Book Review: She Who Became The Sun by Shelly Parker-Chan”
Book Review: Defy the Night and Defend The Dawn by Brigid Kemmerer
I’ve written about Brigid Kemmerer’s novels before on my blog so, it should come as no surprise that I’m writing about her new-ish YA Fantasy series again. A Curse So Dark and Lonely (you can read my review of this trilogy here) was a beauty and the beast re-telling, and while the Defy The NightContinue reading “Book Review: Defy the Night and Defend The Dawn by Brigid Kemmerer”
Book Review: Mexican Gothic by Silvia Moreno-Garcia
And welcome back to another book review! I need to start this review by saying that this novel was brilliant! This was another novel that was a 5-star read and I enjoyed reading it so much. I don’t often read paranormal-ish novels so, this was a very pleasant outcome considering I wasn’t sure what toContinue reading “Book Review: Mexican Gothic by Silvia Moreno-Garcia”
Book Review: The Ivory Key by Akshaya Raman
I found this novel through a bookish subscription service and IT WAS THE BEST NOVEL of my whole year. It was the book of the month for OwlCrate’s January 2022 subscription book (which I reviewed here) and I cannot express just how much I love this book. So, without any delay here’s my review: ColourfulContinue reading “Book Review: The Ivory Key by Akshaya Raman”
NetGalley Book Review: The Luminaries by Susan Dennard
It’s quiet and lethal. Lonely and inevitable. Chapter 1 Happy New Year and welcome back to Silk Roads! Now, The Luminaries by Susan Dennard has been hyped up on my social media accounts for months! And once I read the blurb for this novel I knew I just had to read it. So, I amContinue reading “NetGalley Book Review: The Luminaries by Susan Dennard”
Book Review: The Shatter Me Series by Tahereh Mafi
Okay so, this is a series that I’ve seen around A LOT but I just never felt the need to pick it up and read it. Eventually, I thought, why not? Let’s see whether this was worth the hype or not. So, let’s get into my review of this series “Hope is a pocket ofContinue reading “Book Review: The Shatter Me Series by Tahereh Mafi”
