Like most readers, I’ve been highly anticipating Harry Potter and the Cursed Child since I first heard that the script was going to be released in book form. But I actually knew nothing about the plot going into the story and I think that worked in my favour. I had very few expectations and I […]
I’ve never read a book set in Alaska before, so when The Smell of Other People’s Houses came about, I knew I had to get this glimpse into a different life. Being historical fiction, the book is set in the 1970s, told from the perspective of four very different teenage characters. It has a wonderful small […]
If there’s anything that I wished I had at university, it is Summer Skin.

Unfortunately, it didn’t quite live up to my expectations. While Ready Player One successfully made gaming and 80’s pop culture references accessible […]
