When Do You Dream of Terra-Two turned up on my doorstep, it was a novel that I hadn’t heard of before – but after reading the blurb comparing it to The Long Way to A Small and Angry Planet and The 100, I was totally sold! I’m so glad I ended up picking this up because it was a […]
What If It’s Us is an adorable ‘meet cute’ book about finding someone who you’ve met and hit it off with – but with no name or social media account to go off, it’s relying on fate to bring you back together (and let’s face it – lots of desperation and social media stalking). I thought Ben […]
Have you ever wondered how your life would’ve been like if there was one moment that was different?

This book follows Merit, a girl with depression and anxiety but she doesn’t know she has it.

It gave me many conflicted thoughts about some issues that I’ve never really thought in-depth about, such as gender binary, LGBTQIA+ and the porn industry, specifically camming and dark fetishes. […]
After my terrible experience with this author’s book Beautiful Disaster (in which I DNF’d before getting to the halfway mark), I decided to give this one a try. I went into it trying not to dislike it, and the beginning turned out alright. The more I read it, however, the more I began to want […]
For a book about assassins, I would’ve expected more assassinating. Set in a fervently religious world where killing each other is normal, Assassin’s Heart featured more telling than showing. The world in Assassin’s Heart made no sense to me whatsoever. Built upon a world with nine families worshipping a death god, the Saldana family are the most powerful and […]
Denton Little’s Deathdate is an incredibly funny contemporary novel that is set in the near future (I assume). The novel takes place within 48 hours as we see the two last days of Denton Little’s life. In this world, a group of doctors, scientists and statisticians have created a method of revealing each individual’s deathdate, […]
