Weekly Wrap-Up: 07 September 2018
Happy Friday, all! It seems crazy to me that the first week of September is nearly over. This week has absolutely flown by — I feel like I’ve been so incredibly busy.

Book Review: Gilded Cage by Vic James
Gilded Cage was such an interesting reading experience for me. It started out incredibly slow — to the point where I considered setting it aside in favour of other book several times — but had one of the most explosive and exciting endings I’ve ever read. Parts of it were absolutely amazing, while others just… Continue reading

August is a weird month, isn’t it? I felt like it was crawling by at first, then it suddenly flew past and now it’s almost September! Where did the time go? No seriously, where did it go? On the bright side, I had a great reading month! I stuck to my book buying ban and… Continue reading

Book Review: All Systems Red by Martha Wells
Apparently this has been the Summer of the Novella for me — I recently read the three books in the Wayward Children series by Seanan McGuire and The Blue Salt Road by Joanne M. Harris.

Book Review: After the Fire by Will Hill
I must confess that I initially ignored the hype surrounding After the Fire. It is listed as a contemporary YA novel, a genre I don’t tend to enjoy, and I knew nothing about it but the hype. When I spotted it at YALC this year and actually bothered to read the back, I realised that… Continue reading

Book Review: The Light Between Us by Katie Khan
I’ve been shouting at you all ever since reading and loving Katie Khan’s debut novel Hold Back the Stars last year. In fact, it was one of my favourite books of 2017 — I hadn’t read anything else quite like it and Katie became an auto-buy author for me. When I learned her new book… Continue reading
