Flash Reviews: Nonfiction Science
It’s time for another set of flash reviews! Today, I’m focusing on nonfiction science, specifically books about space. Now you may know that I’m completely obsessed with space. If I had the right kind of brain, I would have been an astronomer. However, I’m more of a reader than a scientist, so instead of studying… Continue reading

Review: The Cruel Prince by Holly Black
The Cruel Prince was one of the most highly anticipated releases of 2018. Released in January, it has already caused a stir among fans and newcomers to Holly Black’s books.

Weekly Wrap-Up: 13 April 2018
Happy Friday! It has technically been a short week for me, but I’m still so excited for the weekend.

Review: Planetfall by Emma Newman
When I requested a copy of Planetfall, I assumed I was going to get a standard ‘humans colonize a planet, things go wrong’ science fiction book — which is great, don’t get me wrong.

I decided to pick out a couple of priority titles and go from there. Guess how many ‘priority’ books I picked? 14. So I guess I unintentionally picked… Continue reading

March 2018 Reading Round-Up
So March was an unexpectedly great month for reading. I’ve been feeling like I’ve not been reading enough lately, but that’s clearly not true. Why? I read 12 books in March. 12 books! To be fair, they were a combination of full-length novels, shorter books, and graphic novels (which I absolutely power through). Regardless, I’m… Continue reading

Announcement: Spring Cleaning Readathon!
So this is incredibly short notice, but bear with me. I feel like life has been just so crazy lately that I haven’t really had the time to sit down with a book and relax. I’ve really missed my leisurely reading time! So, what to do about this? Fortunately my realisations come at a very… Continue reading
