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

Flash Reviews: Science Fiction Classics
So I have been reading a lot lately. Seriously, a lot. And while I’ve been trying to dedicate myself to writing a review for every single book I read, that’s just not really possible.

Review: The Outrun by Amy Liptrot
I’m usually not someone who likes memoirs. I often find they they’re incredibly indulgent and not particularly fun to read – see my rant about H is for Hawk. That being said, I’m not sure what drew me to The Outrun. It might have been its gorgeous cover or its setting, but I picked it… Continue reading

ARC Review: The Thousandth Floor by Katharine McGee
I’m going to start off by saying that I’ve never read or watched Gossip Girl. Shocking, I know. Why do I mention this? The Thousandth Floor has been heavily promoted as ‘Gossip Girl in the 22nd century’. I can go in for some fun drama if it’s well done, so I decided to pick this… Continue reading
