April 2020 Reading Wrap Up – Part One [Books]

January / February / March Part 1 / March Part 2 I am not doing great at getting these up in a timely way. Ah well. April was another month in which I finished a lot of books, which means this is going to be another two parter. April also saw me complete my 2020 Reading Goal, whichContinueContinue reading “April 2020 Reading Wrap Up – Part One [Books]”

Shades of Magic, Volume 1: The Steel Prince – V.E. Schwab [Books]

I’ve mentioned it before, but I really am such a huge Schwab fan. I’m slowly making my way through her books, and have so far not been disappointed by a single one. The Shades of Magic series is definitely one of the best fantasy series’ I’ve read in a long time, and the ending ofContinueContinue reading “Shades of Magic, Volume 1: The Steel Prince – V.E. Schwab [Books]”

March 2020 Reading Wrap Up – Part One [Books]

January Wrap Up / February Wrap Up I read 16 books in March. It was a very strange month – GP advised me to remain isolated for 2 weeks, which meant I missed the last two weeks of my workplace being open. There was then a gap where they didn’t know if we’d be able toContinueContinue reading “March 2020 Reading Wrap Up – Part One [Books]”

Peter Pan – J.M. Barrie, Audible Original Drama [Books]

I have to admit, it’s been a fairly long while since I actually read Peter Pan. When this popped up for free on Audible, I snatched it up, I’m finding I really like full cast audiobooks, and I was excited for this version of the story. Unfortunately, I didn’t really find it that great. Some ofContinueContinue reading “Peter Pan – J.M. Barrie, Audible Original Drama [Books]”

Esme’s Gift – Elizabeth Foster [Books]

Long-time readers of this blog might remember my review for Esme’s Wish, a wonderfully charming book about a young girl who finds herself in a new world, and discovers her mother spent much of her own time there before her disappearance. The adventure continues in Esme’s Gift. Here, we originally see Esme returning home, joyfully anticipating beingContinueContinue reading “Esme’s Gift – Elizabeth Foster [Books]”

Poison – Sarah Pinborough [Books]

Poison is a slightly darker, twisted version of the Snow White story, adding in a little adult content and ensuring things aren’t as clear-cut as the story we’re used to. I won’t do my usual synopsis style introduction here, because I’d be surprised if anyone doesn’t know the story of Snow White, but I will say some ofContinueContinue reading “Poison – Sarah Pinborough [Books]”

Into the Drowning Deep – Mira Grant [Books]

I’m still relatively new to audiobooks. During February, I tried to only start books written by women. I picked up Into the Drowning Deep as I was looking specifically for horror titles, and this seemed a good choice on Audible. I was not wrong. Into the Drowning Deep tells the story of a group of scientists,ContinueContinue reading “Into the Drowning Deep – Mira Grant [Books]”
