Scythe by Neal Schusterman

Scythe by Neal Schusterman

For once I am writing a review just minutes after finishing a book rather than waiting weeks and relying on my notes to write the review. SO THIS BOOK IS FRESH IN MY BRAIN! And just wow! This book was terrific. I can’t believe that I put off reading it for so long because of the hype. Let me just say this: Scythe definitely lives up to the hype that surrounded it.

The Diabolic by S.J Kincaid

The Diabolic by S.J Kincaid

I was a bit apprehensive to read this for some unknown reason. Maybe it was the hype that surrounded it? I have no idea. Also, whilst I was reading it, I kept thinking that it was Scythe by Neal Shusterman (?) I genuinely have no clue what was going on inside of my head. I know that S.J Kincaid wrote a very popular series before The Diabolic, but this is the first book that I had ever read by her, and I was curious to see what all of the hype was about.

Orlando by Virginia Woolf

Orlando by Virginia Woolf

I’m am going to be very honest and very brief about my thoughts on this book: I don’t think that I am going to be reading any more of Virginia Woolf’s books.

Frostblood by Elly Blake

I have seen so many mixed reviews for this book! I’m coming to the realisation that it’s either a love/hate book and there’s no in-between? I don’t know, that’s the vibe I’m getting from all of the reviews that I’ve been reading about it. And because it’s me, and I’m a very difficult person, I didn’t hate this book, but I didn’t LOOOOOVVVEEEE this book, which is why I’m giving it a 4 out of 5.

The Cruel Prince by Holly Black

The Cruel Prince by Holly Black

Holly Black is the queen of all the fae. She co-wrote the AMAZING series of The Spiderwick Chronicles with Tony DiTerlizzi and then she went on to write amazing books such as The Coldest Girl in Coldtown and The Darkest Part of the Forest. So when I was sent this book by the publisher, I had majorly high expectations going into it and I knew I wasn’t going to be disappointed.
