Everything Everything by Nicola Yoon

Edit Dec 2016 (spoilers): So there's been a lot of rumbling about how this book is ableist and stuff and I think that's probably why I had problems with the end of it, it felt like such a cop out for her to not be allergic to everything, for it to be due to her …

September Wrap Up

September has been, in a word, hellish. As happens every year, people have left my work to go back to uni, but on top of that a couple members of regular staff have left. I have a seasonal job so by now things should be beginning to slow down with customers, but it isn't and …

The Summer Reader Book Tag

Thank you to Kayla for the tag! I know it's no longer summer but you know, here we are. I'm not going to tag anyone because, well, it's Autumn. Lemonade: Pick a book that started off bitter but got better I'm going to take this as the themes were bitter rather than the book itself …

Finding Audrey by Sophie Kinsella

  This was a cute story about anxiety and being British basically. I haven't read anything Sophie Kinsella but when I saw she did a YA novel I thought "oooooooooh". Audrey has really bad anxiety and has had to take time out of school after a really bad incident. She wears sunglasses all the time …

All the Bright Places by Jennifer Niven

This was a book I eventually intended to read but the library got it for me and so I read it a lot earlier than I would've. This is on the Zoella Book Club so has been gaining a lot of attention as of late, which is nothing but good really. The Zoella book club …

Falling Kingdoms by Morgan Rhodes

This is a YA High Fantasy so of course it was on my radar. I'd seen a lot of criticisms of this book saying that it isn't a great book and the series gets much better after this one but I thought it wasn't that bad actually and quite enjoyed it. After a bit of …

The Beauty and the Beast Book Tag

Thank you to Casey for the tag! Beauty and The Beast is one of my fave Disney movies of all time so I'm all over this tag. 1. “TALE AS OLD AS TIME” – A POPULAR THEME, TROPE OR SETTING YOU WILL NEVER GET BORED OF READING. Probably friends to lovers, it's so lame but …

City of heavenly fire by Cassandra Clare

This was honestly such a fantastic end the the series. I felt emotional, happy, exhausted, so many different feelings. The ending was so different and original to any way this could have ended, or at least from the books I've read so far. Of course there was some loopholes that they managed to get themselves …

Empire of Storms by Sarah J. Maas

I honestly don't even know where to start with this review. I'm still reeling after finishing EoS and now I have to wait a year for the next instalment. I hate myself for reading this so quickly, less than 2 days, and I'm just sitting here like "CURSE YOU SJM". Once again Sarah J. Maas …
