The Good Things My reread of this nostalgia inducing series continues! This is probably my favourite book I’ve read in the series so far. It’s a YA steampunk/ historical fantasy by the way. We got so much Emily in this one! Her relationship with Sam is my favourite (but I think they might be beaten […]
The Good Things A reread for me! I first read this series when they were being released (starting back in 2011-ish). I’ve been filled with so much nostalgia rereading. I do recommend this if you enjoy steampunk! There are some really fun inventions in this one. And this was set in New York, which was […]
The Good Things This is such a fun YA historical fantasy series and a bit of a Jekyll and Hyde retelling (or at least a story inspired by it) It’s actually a reread for me! I first read The Girl in the Steel Corset back in 2011 when it was released. I’m rereading so I […]
The Good Things Book two in the Falconer trilogy by Elizabeth May, a YA historical fantasy series filled with vicious faeries. I found a new favourite character in Aithinne! Her sarcasm is just amazing. I laughed so much more than I expected to! There are some brilliant sibling dynamics and great dry humour. I loved […]
The Good Things I’m finally rereading this so I can finish the series! It was one of my favourite reads (and my first ever Edelweiss eARC) in 2013 or 2014. Fast-paced, action packed YA historical fantasy set in 1840s Scotland. I couldn’t put it down! Aileana is a badass! SO MUCH STEAMPUNK! Aileana invents some […]

In […]
Steampunk isn’t my usual genre, but I thoroughly enjoyed The Diabolical Miss Hyde. While it isn’t particularly heavy on the steampunk elements, the gender swapped Jekyll/Hyde story in a fey-ridden Victorian London gave the story an interesting twist. I’ve read the original Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde, and I’m pleased to say that in this […]
