Do you choose to save the person with a baby, or a child? Or the person with the red shirt, or the blue shirt? What about if they’re older, or younger, with only their physical attributes to tell them apart? The Erasure Initiative is a sci-fi psychological thriller that had me at the edge of […]
The Good Things A Kelley Armstrong novel! She’s one of my favourite authors and I’m terribly behind on her novels, especially her newer YA stuff. They’re all really entertaining. Standalone YA thriller. Pacing starts off nice and fast. I couldn’t put it down. The villain likes to taunt Winter and it’s really creepy and terrifying. […]

The Boundless Sublime captures this element well, from preying on the weak minded with warmth, inclusion and promises, and descending into the dark heart of human manipulation. Unfortunately, what it takes to progress into […]
Snow Like Ashes started out on rough footing for me. It took me a while to warm to Meira, due to her immaturity and rash decision-making. There was also the love triangle which it launches into straight away, with Meira having unrequited feelings for her best friend and future Winterian King, and then becoming betrothed […]
