Timekeeper by Tara Sim was probably my most anticipated 2016 debut. From the second I heard about this book, I knew I couldn’t wait to have it, to read it, to hold it in my hands. Thanks to getting an ARC, I got to do the reading part of it a while ago (and then…
So this year marked my attending my first Nine World con. And it wasn’t just my first Nine World con, it was my first SFF geek con altogether. I had been to anime cons in the past but my experiences at them had always been dreadful (bar the very first one at the time but…
So, shame on me, I’ve not reviewed any part of The Throne of Glass series, but in my defence I did read these books when I was going through a really rough patch and I do ramble on about them to anyone and everyone who will listen. Why? Because it’s my favourite series (sorry Shadowhunters…
I was excited about The Crown’s Game by Evelyn Skye when I first saw the words Russia, magic, and enchanters in the same sentence. I have a soft spot for tales set in Russia (hello distant ancestors!), so that was a good start. And well, you throw magic in the middle of Imperial Russia at…
Quick disclaimer: 100% of the books I read and therefore am talking about fall under the wide SFF umbrella term. Out of those about 90% are YA, so it’s from that pool of books that I am drawing my experiences and conclusion. I don’t care if other genres are doing things differently, this is what…
[Warning: spoilers ahead] How does one even begin to review the Raven King? Where does one start? At the beautiful poetry of the writing? At the utter enchantment that it casts on the reader, wrapping us in its wondrous tale? Do we talk about the characters, their depth and the quiet awe they inspire by…
Ten Thousand Skies Above You by Claudia Gray is the sequel to A Thousand Pieces of You, a book that I read last year but never got around to review (I promise a review of it is coming!). I thoroughly enjoyed A Thousand Pieces of You and although I’m not sure it wouldn’t have made…
Firstly I know I don’t usually do series reviews as I tend to prefer reviewing separate books, but given I’m a gazillion reviews behind and that I read all three books back to back, I’m more likely to mix up what happened in what and give slightly wrong information in my reviews. There a couple…
Here’s another review that has been written for ages and just been sitting by the wayside because I was so scattered and unsettled and not doing much ^^;;. I feel particularly bad about this one because this book is one of my favourite books of all time! Anyway, without further ado, here is the review…
Stolen Songbird by Danielle Jensen is one of my favourite books, ever, and was my first read this year. Let’s just say it set the bar really high for everything else and I’ll be hard pressed to find a book I fell more in love with, or a couple I so badly wanted to see get…
