This review contains minor reviews for Scythe (the first book in the series). Check out my review for Scythe here, if you haven’t read it. I didn’t realise how much I had missed this world under I picked up Thunderhead, which definitely doesn’t disappoint as a sequel to Scythe, one of my favourite books of 2017. Thunderhead delves […]
If you’re anything like me, seeing a six pack on the front of a book would be enough to turn you off it. However, I’m really glad that I picked up Trust (which has since had a cover change), because of the refreshing, sex positive romance between older teen characters. When Edie finds herself caught up in […]
This book was a pleasant surprise in the best of ways. With a turbulent and explosive plot, Roar takes you on an unforgettable journey as exhilarating as chasing a storm. There are numerous dynamic and lovable characters whom you can easily connect with, as well as solid world-building that sucks you right into the pages, […]
Dark, intense, and tantalizing, Dark Breaks the Dawn shows us a lush, colorful fantasy world and complex characters with intriguing powers that you can’t get enough of.

Queens of Geek follows three Australian friends as they travel together to a geeky convention over the weekend, creating a story of self-discovery while dealing with societal issues relevant to the current time. Readers get to read through the first person POV’s of […]
If you’re looking for an adorable book with quirky and lovable characters, a fun mystery, a sweet and slow-burning romance, and witty dialogue that is guaranteed to make you crack up in laughter, look no further. Anstey’s YA regency provides all of that and more, delighting this reader from the first page to last. Although […]
Check this book out if you’re looking for a fun and flirty light read that is mindless and laugh-out-loud funny. Extremely superficial at times, I can see why people liken this book to a romantic comedy movie. The awkward, clumsy main character Emily can be an absolute train wreck, but you can’t help but read […]
So you’re probably thinking, “Another rebellion, Aila?! When will you get over these things.” The answer is: NEVER. I love revolution, innovation, and movements. I love seeing changes and the way small feats can make grand progress. In the midst of all these magical rebellions and ending the ways of a social hierarchy, what makes […]
