    Book Review: Do You Dream of Terra-Two? by Temi Oh

    Book Review: Do You Dream of Terra-Two? by Temi Oh

    As soon as I heard about Do You Dream of Terra-Two? I knew it would be the exact kind of book I love. I went into this debut sci-fi novel with high expectations and they were surpassed. A beautiful, thought-provoking story of mankind’s first manned interstellar mission, Do You Dream of Terra-Two? will haunt you… Continue reading

    Book Review: The Bone Season by Samantha Shannon

    Book Review: The Bone Season by Samantha Shannon

    I’m going to be completely honest, I don’t really know how to write this review. I’ve had The Bone Season on my radar since it came out in 2013. My mum heard about it on the radio and bought a copy because she thought we might be interested. I never got around to picking it… Continue reading

    Reading Wrap-Up: March 2019

    Reading Wrap-Up: March 2019

    March was such a busy month — I feel like it completely flew by! I had so many life changes in March, including preparation for moving to a new job and studying (and passing!) by driving theory test. I did, however, still manage to get some reading done, although I didn’t read as many books… Continue reading

    Blog Tour: Muse of Nightmares by Laini Taylor

    Welcome to my stop on the Muse of Nightmares blog tour! To celebrate the paperback release, I’m bringing you a review of this gorgeous fantasy novel. Judging by my overwhelming love of Strange the Dreamer, it’s no surprise that I absolutely adored the concluding book in Laini Taylor’s latest duology. Take a look at my… Continue reading

    Book Review: The Priory of the Orange Tree by Samantha Shannon

    Book Review: The Priory of the Orange Tree by Samantha Shannon

    I had been desperately waiting to get hold of a copy of The Priory of the Orange Tree, and it finally landed in my hands in February. It’s a chunky 800-page fantasy tome that is packed with cool dragons, mighty queens, fierce warriors, and enough court intrigue and conspiracy to warm my heart. I was… Continue reading

    Book Review: The Tesla Legacy by K. K. Pérez

    Book Review: The Tesla Legacy by K. K. Pérez

    I’m always on the lookout for some good science fiction, and The Tesla Legacy caught my eye. Not only did I meet the author at YALC last year, it’s a YA sci-fi novel set in a modern high school that sounded so much fun. I whipped through this book incredibly quickly — it’s a perfect… Continue reading

    Book Review: Daisy Jones and the Six by Taylor Jenkins Reid

    Book Review: Daisy Jones and the Six by Taylor Jenkins Reid

    Daisy Jones and the Six is the latest novel from the author of much beloved The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo, which I read and enjoyed last summer. I was incredibly curious about Daisy Jones, which tackles the history of a fictional 70’s rock band, and decided to give it a try before the hype… Continue reading

    Book Review: The Familars by Stacey Halls

    Book Review: The Familars by Stacey Halls

    I love historical fiction, but it tends to get cast aside in favour of science fiction and fantasy for me. Enter The Familiars, a gorgeous book set during the 17th century witch trials in England, with a cover that I couldn’t resist. I won an early copy of this book back in July and am… Continue reading

About Me

Welcome to my corner of the bookish internet. I’m an American who has lived in the UK for almost 10 years, a publishing professional, and lifelong lover of books. I make it my mission to shout about books all over the internet and share my enthusiasm with other readers. I read a little bit of everything, but my main genres of choice are horror, fantasy, and science fiction.

I aim to start conversations about books and reading, link readers to new authors and titles they’ll love, provide insightful review the books I’m reading, and discover new writers and subgenres on this blog.
