The Good Things This review is hard to write because I don’t know if I can find the words to do this story justice. I finished it a week ago and am still in a book hangover from it. This is an adult literary fiction novel by an Aussie author! Standalone. It’s so different to […]
Note: This is the sequel and conclusion to Ignite the Stars, which you can find my glowing review over here. This review will have slight spoilers! I utterly adored Ignite the Stars, and so I had high, highhhh expectations for this sequel. And while I enjoyed it wholeheartedly, I can’t help but also feel a […]
Fun, fascinated, and a fan of adventure: all words to describe the Lady Rogue of this book, Theodora.

This was such a fierce, empowering read! Seafire will satisfy all your feminist dreams as we follow Captain Caledonia and her crew of women to defeat an evil dictator who has killed off many a person to fuel his own path of conquering the seas – people including Caledonia’s family.
