hannah with truly the most wise of words Hi friends! How are you all doing? I hope you are all taking care and staying safe. Today's post is a review (kind of) post WHICH WILL INCLUDE SPOILERS SO BEWARE, regarding a book series I just completed reading. My plan is to try and do more [...]
Happy new year bookish friends! I hope you 2021 has been at least slightly better than the hell that was 2020. Today I bring to you a review for Bad Habits by Flynn Meaney for TheWriteReads blog tour! Shall we get started? thoughts. 'Bad Habits' by Flynn Meaney was the first book by this author [...]
They told her that her body belonged to men and her mind didn’t matter. They were wrong. TRIGGER WARNINGS for this book: abuse, sexual assualt warning, non-consensual bodily mutilation. I have been waiting for what feels like YEARS to write this review because I Am Change by Suzy Zail has quickly become one of my [...]
You can waltz into the darkness pretty easily. Or you can try to negotiate a way back into the light. Sometimes you get lost trying. And sometimes you even think you're in the light, but you're still stuck on the other side.p. 161 Trigger Warnings: Suicide, Pedophilia?, Drug Use, Underage Sex?, Murder, Mentions of Homophobia, [...]

It is fantastically chaotic, confusing and hilarious. Scream All Night narrates the story of Dario Heyward, who had made the promise to himself at age [...]
PERGITE SI AUDETIS. The Almighty Duo are back at it again! Kick-ass female protagonist? Check. Awesome as hell male protagonist? Check. Breath-taking, edge-of-your-seat action? Check. Space? DOUBLE CHECK. Ok, so if you don't know by now, I'm an Australian book blogger, so I was lucky enough to get my hands on this book last year! [...]
5/5. Read it. Now. The Hate U Give by Angie Thomas needs to be a compulsory novel read in secondary schools across the world. It is a modern classic, speaking from a perspective not quite heard in the book community; and that is from the perspective of people of colour. Even though there is a [...]
