Before I write my top ten books of 2019 post, I thought I’d select my top five debut authors of the year. I love discovering new authors and I’ll be eagerly awaiting any future books from these incredibly-talented writers. 👑 Casey McQuiston 👑 No surprises […]
I recently read and loved A Treason of Thorns by Laura E Weymouth, released in the US this September and in the UK early next year. The Light Between Worlds was one of my favourite books of 2018 and A Treason of Thorns has the same lyrical prose and a similarly enchanting story, […]
I’ve read about 200 books this year and it was so hard to narrow my favourite books down to just ten (I’ll probably end up doing a best-of-the-rest post too). I decided they had to be 2018 releases or earlier, and new-to-me to qualify. I […]

I’m about a month late with this post but I wanted to share my pre-orders for the next few months. Some of these are special editions, some are signed, and some are new releases that I can’t wait to read. I have nothing pre-ordered for […]
