✎Title: The Iron Ghost (The Copper Promise #2) ✎Author: Jen Williams ✎Publisher: Headline ✎Publication date: 26th February 2015 ✎Rating: ★★★★★ The absolute best thing about Jen Williams – aside from being hilarious, entirely aware of the genre she writes in (allowing her to make and break rules however she pleases), and one of the best new writers of SFF … Continue reading

So we’re seeing more and more YA novels making it to the big screen these days. YA novels that all sport female mains at that. And it should all be a wonderful thing, right? Because it portrays these strong, complex female characters and reaches out to potential new readers? And…
✎Title: Of Bone and Thunder ✎Author: Chris Evans ✎Publisher: Gallery Books ✎Publication date: 14th October 2014 ✎Rating: ★★★★ Of Bone and Thunder is a singularly exceptional book. It’s not a book I enjoyed as much as other reads this year, and as such received four stars and not five—but that’s not why it’s exceptional. Read on some, and I’ll … Continue reading
Oooo. Good one. As a rule I try not to fling expensive tech across the room, but we’ll go with the sentiment. ^_~ It took a while to go back and think of a book for this. There are a few books I’ve intensely disliked, either at points or as a whole, but nothing really … Continue reading
A relatively short and boring post for today, because I don’t really have any. Because I’m such a social creature (¬__¬), I tend not to post or comment on other bloggers’ blogs – except in the rare cases that I do guest posts (it’s happen twice: here and here) – and so this list is bound … Continue reading
It depends on the day I’ve had and where I’m at with my fibrosomnia and pain levels, but this is generally split into two different rituals. 1) The Human Audiobook Because my brother is pretty epic and we share a lot of the same interests and taste in books, we’ll pick a book together and … Continue reading
This is going to be fun. 1) I won’t read A Song of Ice and Fire because I refuse to expose myself to that amount of casual (imho unnecessary) a) death and general misery and b) rape and shit. I know the books are a hell of a lot more whitewashed than the TV series, too. Plus, … Continue reading
Because this will be immense fun, I’ll be doing this random 15 day challenge I found. It’s a good way to really kickstart my posting again after my inordinately long absence, and also, I’m very much into posting random trivia about myself. Especially when we’re talking books. It was found on a random Google search, … Continue reading

✎Title: Crushed (Soul Eater #2) ✎Author: Eliza Crewe ✎Publisher: ????? (Formerly Strange Chemistry – any takers?!) ✎Publication date: I has a sad* ✎Rating: ★★★★ I had been waiting until closer to publication date to post this, since I literally read it within a single day of it going live on NetGalley. And then, well, shit happened and second, more … Continue reading
Recently I posted about this: about Sadie – my SeiSei – and her Cake For Later Fund. Our fund. Because… this isn’t just her fund; it’s all of ours. Our tiny group of friends who have stood by SeiSei’s side for years whilst cancer tried to have its way. It’s had its way too much … Continue reading
