Book Review: Jade City by Fonda Lee
Jade City has been on my radar for ages — I’ve owned a copy for at least a year, but never got around to it. In an attempt to actually read the diverse fantasy that I keep buying, I decided to give it a try and wow. This is another book to add to the… Continue reading

Book Review: Children of Ruin by Adrian Tchaikovsky
Some of you may know that Children of Time is one of my absolute favourite novels. I love the incredible scope, storytelling, and world that Tchaikovsky captures on the page.

It has been a long time since I’ve read historical romance, despite it being a favourite genre of mine, and I’ve been craving it lately. Pretty much everything that I have read in historical romance has been set in Regency or Victorian England, and I needed to read something different while in a reading slump… Continue reading
