Crescent City: House of Earth and Blood by Sarah J. Maas
I have read Maas’ A Court of Thorns and Roses series, and the first three books from Throne of Glass, and I’ve enjoyed them… to an extent. Personally I think her shining book is Assassin’s Blade, the prequel collection of short stories to Throne of Glass. But I do think she is a talented writerContinueContinue reading “Crescent City: House of Earth and Blood by Sarah J. Maas”
The Legendary Shiver – J.H. MacAl: Reading Blog
I am going to try something new today. Over the past couple of weeks I have received a few requests for reviews through my bookstagram, and now that I have finished my degree (I am not going to cry) I have decided to give them a go. So the first on my list is TheContinueContinue reading “The Legendary Shiver – J.H. MacAl: Reading Blog”
The Folk of the Air Trilogy – Holly Black: Book Review
So before I give you a review of this trilogy I think it’s only fair that I warn you that I am coming to these novels with a bit of bias. I ADORE Holly Black. I wish I were exaggerating, but I’m not. I find her writing incredibly engaging and it paints the most wonderfulContinueContinue reading “The Folk of the Air Trilogy – Holly Black: Book Review”
From Blood and Ash – Jennifer L. Armentrout
8/10 Well this book came out of nowhere and hit me straight in the face. I haven’t read anything by Jennifer L. Armentrout for years, but I remember loving her Lux series. So when I saw the sudden hype around this book on my hunt for a new fantasy, I knew it was meant toContinueContinue reading “From Blood and Ash – Jennifer L. Armentrout”
Book Review – “The Hunger Games” Trilogy by Suzanne Collins
So I have read The Hunger Games multiple times in my twenty years of life. I loved them when I first picked them up and I loved them when I last put them down. However, as I have gone through different stages in my life I have loved them for different reasons. When I firstContinueContinue reading “Book Review – “The Hunger Games” Trilogy by Suzanne Collins”
Book Review – “Again, but Better” by Christine Riccio
I’ve have watched Christine on Youtube for years and had a mild obsession with her as a teenager, watching all of her book reviews, whether I had read the book or not. I have even met her once at SITC. Seeing her process of writing this book over the past few years has been anContinueContinue reading “Book Review – “Again, but Better” by Christine Riccio”
Book Review – “To Best the Boys” by Mary Weber
I absolutely love the premise of this book. It has everything in it’s plot that I would expect from a first-class novel. There’s a female character breaking the gender mould of her society, a mysterious plague, a class divide and an amazing challenge for the characters to complete… there is also a love triangle …The female charactersContinueContinue reading “Book Review – “To Best the Boys” by Mary Weber”
Book Review – “Renegades” by Marissa Meyer
I’ve enjoyed Marissa Meyer’s writing before so when I heard she had written a series about super heroes I got pretty excited. However, this what not the subtle hint to the source material that she has done previously – see Heartless- but this was a slap in the face with cliches.I loved the super heroContinueContinue reading “Book Review – “Renegades” by Marissa Meyer”
