I’ve just finished this beast of a book last night and I’m still fuming. HOW COULD YOU JAY KRISTOFF? But if that isn’t the reaction from reading any of the books he’s written, then it wouldn’t be right, would it? So let’s dig into Empire of the Vampire – a book that has been hyped up […]
Hello, my name is Bec and I’m a notebook hoarder. I love notebooks and own a ridiculous amount. I’ve probably forgotten where half of my unused notebooks are. Most of them have been started, but I’m not sure I’ve ever actually filled one. Quite a few of my notebooks are dedicated to bookish things. Currently, […]
There’s nothing I love more than a second chance romance – it may even be my favourite romance trope. And The Road Trip did an amazing job of giving me everything I want in a good second chance romance. The novel is written in alternating perspectives (Addie and Dylan) and also alternating then and now timelines. We […]
A historical Chinese fantasy focusing on political warfare and intrigue, She Who Became The Sun was one of my most highly anticipated books of the year. Especially given it’s comparison to The Poppy War, which also happens to be one of my all time favourite books. So what is the book about? There are two distinct parts […]
The Good Things The final book in The Falconer trilogy, a fantastic upper YA/ New Adult historical fantasy series. Another book hangover for me, thanks Elizabeth May. I think I experienced every possible emotion reading this. Especially during the intense final chapters. I cried more than once. There was some interesting new lore and fae […]

The book follows Olive, who is a PhD candidate in biology, and Dr Adam Carlsen, an academic in her department, which got me super excited because […]
After the disappointment that was Blood & Honey, where did we go wrong with this series? I truly had higher expectations for this one, given how long, draggy and unnecessary many of the plot points where in Blood & Honey. Except for the last few chapters and the epilogue, Gods & Monsters was a mess […]
What an absolutely stunning cover! That’s what initially drew me in to Star Daughter, but when I heard it featured actual star beings based off Hindu mythology, I had to pick it up. Things I Liked About Star Daughter The concept is so unique, unlike anything I’ve read before. Sheetal is half-star, half-human, with the power to […]
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 […]
