What a beautiful, heart-warming, gut-wrenching novel… I’d heard so many good things about The Radius of Us, so when I was sent the book to review, I was expecting great things. I hopes were high and I really wanted this book to live up to the hype that surrounded it. …
If you haven’t seen the books, How to Stay Alive or The Humans by Matt Haig floating around BookTube, the blogosphere or just anywhere, where have you been? I have not read either books, but I know that Matt Haig is an author who is greatly admired within the book community. When I was given the opportunity to read How to Stop Time, I jumped at the chance to read this book, and oh what a wonderful book it was! …
I was lucky enough to be sent an arc of this book from the publishers, and then I ended up winning an arc in a Goodreads giveaway! It was amazing to be able to hold this highly anticipated book in my hand; the cover was even more gorgeous in person and the arc was floppy! It was a floppy paperback, which is one of my favourite types! …
This book wrecked me. It inspired me. It moved me. It gave me all the feels…
I absolutely loved it. …
The Help was another book that I had to read for university, alongside The Color Purple. I knew that The Help was a newer book than The Color Purple so I was a bit weary that it wouldn’t be as good (I don’t know why I thought this, but I just thought that Stockett wouldn’t capture the racism of 1962 in Mississippi. …
A re-telling of Cinderella and geekiness… What’s not to love about the concept of this book. I am a geek. I am proud of being a geek and if anyone calls me one, I’m like ‘HELL YEAH!’ Cinderella isn’t my favourite Brothers Grimm or Disney story so I didn’t think that I would absolutely love it. But I did… I really did. …
Readers all over the world were saying that if you liked The Night Circus, you would love Caraval… I loved the circus setting of The Night Circus so I was excited to read more about magical performers and I loved knowing that Caraval was about two sisters instead of two lovers. When I opened my January Fairy Loot box and saw that Caraval was the book of the month, I started reading it straight away. So yeah, this review is up 2 months after I finished the book but hey – it’s here now! …
It’s 00:27 and I’ve literally just finished reading The Upside of Unrequited and I can tell you this: it had all the feels. My heart was crushed but it also soared because of how amazing Albertalli’s writing is… …
I cried. I actually cried at this book. This is going to sound really cheesy, but this spoke to me on so many levels… Letters to the Lost is about confronting your own demons, about facing loss, dealing with family problems, friendship, and love. It is a beautiful young adult contemporary that deals with so many issues. …
Asdfghshshsbsjs! I am just speechless at how amazing this book was and I am so so excited to start reading the second book! For me, Sleeping Giants is like a hidden gem. I didn’t really know what to expect going into it. All I knew was that the cover was pretty and it was about a scientist who discovers something strange. It sounded pretty good to me! …
