Book Review: Non- Fiction Crafting books So I have this habit of forgetting to review non-fiction books that I have read. I realise that it’s a bad habit as there are so many fantastic non-fiction books out there. My tastes tend towards biographies of morticians or other “unsavoury” occupations, or crafting books. Cards and corpses.Decoupage […]
Book Review for Twisted by Steve Cavanagh Publisher: Orion This will be my second foray into Steve Cavanagh books and although they were completely different plot and characters they were equally as captivating. Twisted takes place in Port Lonely (which is a wonderful name for a town) where Maria discovers that her enigmatic husband is […]
Book Review for Of Blood and Bone Publisher- Piatkus This is the second instalment to the Chronicles of the One. The first book, Year One, came out last January and was the first book I read last year. I am a huge fan of both dystopian apocalyptic novels and also of Nora Roberts so when […]
The description was so gentle and lyrical that I felt I was being pulled down into the pages.
Book Review- Light Between Worlds. Author- Laura Weymouth Publisher- HarperTeen I requested this book from Netgalley mainly because I thought the cover was pretty. I dimly recall seeing it at YALC and thinking that it was one I’d have to look out for but couldn’t remember much about it other than that. A LITTLE TRIGGER […]

Author- Mary Weber Title- To Best the boys Publisher- Thomas Nelson. To be released on April 4th 2019 I’ll put my hand up and admit to not having read any of her other books. Apparently her Sire song series is a spectacular read but somehow it had managed to pass me by. But when I […]
Book review and Launch of Outside by Sarah Ann Juckes. Last night I was lucky enough to go to the launch of this wonderful book. I initially downloaded it as an ARC from Netgalley because of the description. Something dark and mysterious with hints of The Room was right up my alley. Halfway through reading […]
Book Review. Author- Holly Bourne Title- Are we all Lemmings and Snowflakes Publisher- Usbourne I haven’t actually read any Holly Bourne before although I always meant to. The front covers always seemed so overwhelmingly hyper-teenage with garish covers and exclamation marks that I convinced myself they would be a younger version of chick lit. […]
I received a complimentary copy of this book through Netgalley. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own. Book Review: Unnatural Causes by Dr Richard Shepherd. Publisher: Penguin UK The first time I watched Agent Dana Scully slice open a cadaver I wanted to be a pathologist. I wanted to be there […]
