Don’t you just hate it when you read a book that objectively wasn’t bad, it wasn’t particularly riveting, either? I think I am possibly the wrong audience for this book. Sure, it’s a YA fantasy with a strong female lead, and although I enjoyed it to a point, overall I was not as engaged as […]

Daughter of the Siren Queen (Daughter of the Pirate King #2) by Tricia Levenseller
I really enjoyed the first book of this duology, Daughter of the Pirate King, and I’m lucky enough that my local library has both of these books available to borrow on audio. I borrowed Siren Queen before I even finished Pirate King, because I knew I wanted to dive (get it? DIVE? lol) right into […]

Daughter of the Pirate King by Tricia Levenseller
I generally don’t enjoy books that dump the reader with an already super-powered, super-confident arrogant and entitled lead character with minimal room to grow. However, Alosa is remarkably different to this brand of heroine, and I couldn’t help but love her. Is she super-powered? Yes. Is she super confident? Yes. Is she arrogant? Sometimes, but […]

Let’s Talk About Bookmarks!
Bookmarks! Little things to hold your place in a book! They’re amazing, aren’t they? I never used to think so. Believe it or not, when I was a kid, I never used bookmarks. I memorised the page number I was up to and closed the book. I have no idea why. There were plenty of […]

Foretold: 14 Tales of Prophecy and Prediction edited by Carrie Ryan
A great collection of interesting and diverse stories all (mostly) revolving around a theme of prophecy, or foretelling, or otherwise predicting the future. I was completely gobsmacked to find two stories in particular had prophecies of their own: Michael Grant’s This is a Mortal Wound mentioned how interesting Hamilton was in 2012, three years before […]
