TBR Thursday #3
TBR Thursday is rapidly becoming my favorite weekly post. This meme was started by Bionic Book Worm. If you aren’t following her yet, well, you really should be. Not only does she do great reviews and bookish posts, she’s an all-around lovely person. All book summaries are courtesy of Goodreads. Continue reading

Instagram Sundays
I’m posting this a little later in the day than I usually like — it has been a busy day! Scottish Fiancé ran his first race, so my big sister and I made signs to taunt/support him (see photo below). It has been a really hot day here in London, so there has been a… Continue reading

Cover Love
Anyone who has spent time on this blog knows that I am an absolute sucker for a gorgeous cover. I’ll always pick up a beautifully designed book, and the cover will sway me to purchase a book about 80% of the time. Continue reading

Review: Spellbook of the Lost and Found
I took a chance on Moira Fowley-Doyle’s Spellbook of the Lost and Found after falling in love with its gorgeous cover on Twitter. I haven’t read The Accident Season, her debut novel, so I didn’t really know what to expect in terms of style. Continue reading

Review: Caraval
There was so much hype surrounding this book’s release. From its stunning cover to the fantastical story, everyone wanted it. I found out about Caraval through social media — you couldn’t throw a figurative rock on Instagram without seeing a photo of its gorgeous cover — and decided to pick it up. Continue reading

Review: The Six of Crows Duology
I’ve been thinking that some of the most innovative fantasy over the past few years has been coming from the YA genre and the Six of Crows duology is certainly evidence of that. These two books are absolutely amazing. Seriously, they’re some of the best fantasy I’ve read in ages. Continue reading
