    Book Review – Miss Beeton’s Murder Agency by Josie Lloyd

    4 February 2025 /

    This was very implausible but a lot of fun! It was nice that the police weren’t too bumbling for once, and Alice was one heck of a sleuth.

    Book Review – Mindbreaker by Kate Dylan

    28 January 2025 /

    I really enjoyed this trip back to the world of Mindwalker! I wasn’t super sure at first as I hadn’t realised it was following a new character.

    Book Review – Crucible of Chaos by Sebastien de Castell

    25 January 2025 /

    I am a huge fan of Sebastien's work, and the Greatcoats series is honestly banging. So I was most excited when I found out Estevar was getting his own book!

    Book Review – The Drowned Woods by Emily Lloyd-Jones

    23 April 2024 /

    I was apprehensive about this, as it sounded (and is) very Welsh, but is written by an American. Well, whatever magic Lloyd-Jones employed to do this worked! It is stunningly atmospheric and beautiful.

    Book Review – All of Our Demise by Amanda Foody and C L Herman

    18 April 2024 /

    I simply adored the first book in this series, it is dark and tricksy, and just generally great fun to read. This finale to the duology is no different, I am happy to say! I'm honestly already tempted to reread them both :D

    Book Review – Bronte Tempestra and the Lightning Steeds by Bex Hogan

    12 April 2024 /

    Bex is one of my favourite young adult authors and I was so excited to see her branch out into middle grade books - especially as Bronte is aimed at the younger end of that category, something I don't see a lot of. Plus it's illustrated and there are maps! I always love to see those.

    Book Review – Once Upon a Summer: A Folk and Fairy Tale Anthology

    2 June 2023 /

    ften wary of anthologies, as the stories can cover such a wide range and don't always fit my tastes. Well with this one, I needn't have worried. I liked most of the stories, and loved more than a few! I definitely think wintery fairytales is the way forward for me :D There's such a great spread of ideas in this, but all still managing to come together really nicely.

    Book Review – A Vow So Bold and Deady by Brigid Kemmerer

    31 March 2022 /

    I feel that the promise of this series from book one comes through more here than it did in the second.
