July Wrap Up

So I am home from Asia and have written a couple posts about Japan and Korea and the rest will be up eventually. Sadly I was back to work and it's crazy busy because it's the height of summer and everyone wants to come to Skye, I blame Outlander. I start uni in August which …

A Court of Wings and Ruin by Sarah J. Maas

Honestly if you loved ACOMAF don't even bother reading this because it's about 500 pages of waffle and not much else. I was so hyped up for this book when I finished ACOMAF because I had no idea what was going to happen, but then there was a lot of discussion in the community about …

Asia Travel Blog #2 – Korea

So if you know me you know I love Kpop, Korean beauty and just general Korean culture so Korea was my most anticipated part of the trip. If you missed my last post about Japan click here. Upon landing in Incheon we found our way to the train to the centre of Seoul and were …

Winger by Andrew Smith

I really don't know how I feel about this book still and it's been 2 months since I read it.

Haven by Rebekah Weatherspoon

Thank you to netgalley and for sending me a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review. If you want a steamy summer read with some characters who aren't your typical romance book types then this is the book for you. Our two main characters are a chubby Grenadian American woman and a …

Always and Forever, Lara Jean by Jenny Han

When this book was announced I really wasn't sure what I felt about it. I loved To All the Boys I Loved Before, then Ps I Still Love You wasn't as good but I also thought it rounded the series out quite well and suddenly a third book gets announced and I was very conflicted. …

See You In The Cosmos by Jack Cheng

Thank you to netgalley and for sending me a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review. This was an interesting little book. The style was really easy to read and I enjoyed what I read but it's a middle grade book and I think some of the themes in this weren't exactly …
