Book Review – Oxford Blood by Rachael Davis-Featherstone
It took me a while to get into this book, I’m not going to lie. At first, it definitely has to spend a good while setting the scene of not only Oxford, but the different relationships. However, as soon as the action kicked in it quickly became addictive.

Book Review – A Treachery of Swans by A B Poranek
I loved Poranek’s first book and came to this with high expectations and I’m so pleased that it was exactly what I wanted it to be.

Book Review – Agnes Aubert’s Mystical Cat Shelter by Heather Fawcett
This is a book I was hyped for and yet was still somehow everything I didn’t know I needed. Set in 1920s Montreal, I loved that it didn’t feel too historical (more just a little old fashioned and fantastical, which is a good mix) and that we got little insights into Montreal, a place I don’t think I’ve seen as a book setting before.

Book Review – A Judgement of Powers by Benedict Jacka
I’m having such a good time with this very readable series. It’s very accessible and I’m enjoying the urban fantasy elements a lot - I really need this genre to reemerge!

Book Review – The House Saphir by Marissa Meyer
I think retellings are definitely Marissa’s comfort zone but this didn’t really stand out from the crowd for me.

Book Review – We Three Witches by Rosie Talbot
I love how Rosie writes 😍 this prequel to the Sixteen Souls series is so wonderful. It was lovely getting to see Edie and Viola’s story, and more of the Hand.

Book Review – The Isle in the Silver Sea by Tasha Suri
This is one of the most stunning books I’ve ever read.It’s a statement about stories themselves and how they can be used as weapons. It’s a fight against governments acting in greed and in their own self interest and not that of the people. It’s also standing against othering and colonialism and racism and so many other things.

Book Review – The Everlasting by Alix E Harrow
I would honestly read Alix’s shopping list at this point. There’s a point 100 pages in that literally had me gasping and losing my mind and from then on I was completely hooked.

Book Review – The Bookshop Below by Georgia Summers
I always love books about books and bookshops, and the premise of this sounded so intriguing! The concept of magic coming from books and bookshops via the river? Sign me right up!

Book Review – Some Like it Cold by Elle McNicoll
I loved the concept of this - and as most of the romance I read is adult, I was looking forward to this being a YA take on it. However, I'm going to be honest, I very nearly DNF'd this and I'm so glad I didn't.
