Vanishing Hour – Book Review
Overall rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “Matthew hated Tuesday’s the most. At least he used to. Until the Tuesday that changed everything.” I’m a sucker for a good character and I also (secretly) enjoy a bit of an emotional read. This book was far better than I could have possibly imagined and it combined all my favourite elements into…
Monica With A ‘K’ Saves The World – Book Review
Overall Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ “It was a race to dominate planets and win their resources.” Having only read this author’s memoir so far, I was really keen to see how good his fictional work was in comparison. It was rather strange comparing an author’s talent for writing with a real life story and a fictional story,…
The Latecomers – Book Review
Overall rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “If this sign is carried, one will never lose one’s way in storms or bad weather, even when the way is not known.” This book took me longer than I expected to finish – not because it was boring, uninteresting or didn’t capture my attention, but for the exact opposite reasons. I…

It’s about you.” Following the success of the first blog tour I took part in, I instantly jumped at the chance to be involved in the next! It’s been a while since I read a good romance, so when this particular book cropped up,…
Finding Your Voice – Book Review
Overall Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “Most of us wait until we feel as if we are drowning in desperation and hopelessness before we consider changing our lives and seeking answers” My first non-fiction book review has been an incredible learning curve! This book really opened my eyes to what is happening to so many people around the…
Dandelion Seeds – Book Review
Overall Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ My first review of a collection of short stories! I absolutely loved this sci-fi collection – such a wide variety of topics, different characters and settings to satisfy my fictional craving, all neatly packed into one book. I really liked how different this was for me and how many stories I’ve enjoyed…
The Final Lesson – Book Review
Overall Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “One day, I’ll be a Warlord. But right now, we’re both amateurs in the field of magic.” This one has been on my TBR list for so long and I am so happy to finally be sharing my review! Not only was it such an involving, exciting read, but it has also…
