Another year gone, another year of exceptional books! I haven’t read as much as previous years in 2022, but I’ve read more incredible stories and found so many new authors for my shelf. It’s always a difficult task to pick out my top ten of the year, and as always, I wish I could include…

I Wish It Could Be Christmas Every Day – Book Review
Overall Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “Being together is all that matters…” This is definitely one of the most perfect festive books I’ve ever read. And, embarrassingly, my first Milly Johnson book, although I do have a handful of her books on my shelf just waiting to be read! As Milly is from my own home town, it…
All You Ever Wanted – Book Review
Overall Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “She’s got it all. Now it’s time for her to share.” I knew this was my kind of book as soon as I started reading, and it’s absolutely one of my top reads of the year! All You Ever Wanted is a dark domestic drama that ticks every single box, with an…
Typecast – Book Review
Overall Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “What happens when your ex writes the script?” A very pleasant surprise! Typecast blew any expectations I had out the water, and it’s turned out to be a novel I’ll remember for a long time to come. An excellent take on its genre, such an addictive storyline and excellent characters you’ll love…
The Other Ones – Book Review
Overall Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ “That was when he heard them. The ghostly voices. For months, they had sounded in the dead of night. Though the words were muffled, he knew they were spiked with hatred; cold, bitter echoes of the past.” This book is the perfect YA read for this time of year! Get ready for…
Wrong Place Wrong Time – Book Review
Overall Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “How do you stop a murder when it’s already happened?” It’s hard to write something that’s never been done. Time travel has been done before, but not like this. It’s something completely and utterly original and I don’t think I’ll stop talking about it… ever! Another incredible book by Gillian – if…
The Depths Of Deceit – Book Review
Overall Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ “A lifetime of deceit, despair and dereliction…” It’s been an absolute thrill to finally read the third and final book in this series! I read the previous two books back in 2020, and even though it’s been so long, it was so easy to jump straight back into the messy and unpredictable…
A Wish For Jo – Book Review
Overall Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “When magic’s in the air, anything is possible…” Another witty, feel-good rom com from one of my favourite authors of this genre! I always get incredibly excited when there’s a new book from Audrey, and the second book in this series has been one of my absolute favourites yet. Perfectly written and…
Once Upon a Fever – Book Review
Overall Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “Disease begins with a feeling, Miss Darke. It has been that way ever since the Turn – when people’s feelings first started making them ill.” This book has well and truly rekindled my love for fantasy! A unique and impressive story about magic and mystery as well as the importance of family…
Be The Ultimate Friend Of The Earth – Book Review
Overall Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Another beautiful and insightful non-fiction read, this time written by journalist, broadcaster and climate/nature expert, Lucy Siegle! I read another book based on nature and its effects earlier in the year, The Wild Remedy, which I absolutely loved, and this one, even though it’s set out a lot differently, was just as…
