This has been on my TBR ever since it came out. I was looking forward to reading Before I Let Go, because I enjoyed reading Nijkamp’s other book: This is Where it Ends (which is about a school shooting). After reading the blurb of BILG, it sounded very cliché, but sometimes clichés can be a good thing! So I opened my Kindle app, and started reading… …
I’m kind of getting into the groove of reading poetry lately… Maybe it’s because there’s a lot of it being published that’s aimed at teenagers and young adults, maybe it’s because I fancy something a little bit different. I don’t know. Nevertheless, I was intrigued by this poet that had come by way – R.H Sin. Apparently, he is a very well known poet with many fans saying how his contemporary poetry is magical. I was eager to see if I agreed. …
The Damned graphic novel series is actually the first graphic novel series that I have ever requested from Netgalley. I thought that it would be weird reading a graphic novel on my phone/laptop as illustrations are a massive part in the storytelling process. However, it turned out to be not that bad! …
I’m always looking for new graphic novels to read! I love discovering new stories in different formats. After seeing The Damned being advertised on Netgalley, I read the description and it sounded like something that I had never read before, so I decided to give it a go! …
Yes, I’m back reviewing the next volume in the Paper Girls series. If you haven’t read my reviews of volume one and two, then definitely check those out before you read this review, because there may be some small spoilers. …
I had to read The Sacrifice Box for the monthly book club at my local Waterstones. The premise of the book sounded so interesting! I love books that focus on friendship, and I do love a good thriller/horror novel! So this sounded like a perfect read for me. …
If you read my review of volume one of this series, you will know that whilst I (kinda) enjoyed it, it was too much of a fast-moving storyline with no character connection. I was hoping that volume two would flesh out the characters a little bit more, and that we would stop in one time for a little bit longer so that I could get used to the world, rather than moving around really quickly so that I get whiplash. …
I am absolutely in love with Brian K. Vaughan’s Saga series. I genuinely cannot get enough of it, so when I found out that Vaughan had written another graphic novel series about teenagers who deliver newspapers and then get sucked into time travel, I was all here for it. …
Straight after I had finished The Princess Saves Herself in this One by Amanda Lovelace, I went onto read Milk and Honey. I was on a modern poetry hype and was looking forward to FINALLY getting round to Rupi Kaur’s debut poetry collection. (Yes, I know. It’s taken me aaaagggeeesss to read it!) …
I have seen this book splashed across the book community with nearly everyone saying how amazing it is and that it’s one of their all-time favourite books. The concept sounded very interesting, but I think what wasn’t cool, was that the blurb was just misleading… …
