ARC review: Love and Other Paradoxes by Catriona Silvey
I was super excited to read this. I mean time travel, falling in love with the wrong person and not the person you’re meant to fall in love with. It had so much potential! Especially that blurb. Unfortunately this did not live up to my expectations. I also really struggled with the Joe Greene’s (MMC) […]
Review and Excerpt: Rifts and Refrains by Devney Perry
Almost 4 stars. The second book in the Hush Note series brings us the the story of the drummer, Quinn Montgomery.

Review: The Truest Thing by Samantha Young
Rating~ 3.75 stars After reading the first book in the Hart’s boardwalk series, I had wanted Emery’s book (you can see that in my review for the first book) so I was pretty excited for that. Less so when I realised who the Hero was, I’d forgotten who Jack was and what he done but […]
✶Blog Tour✶ Review: Seven Devils by Elizabeth May and Laura Lam
What a thrilling ride Seven devils is! TW: Violence, death, torture, xenophobia, all sorts of abuse (for the full list please visit here). I started this going just a few chapters before I go to sleep and before I knew I’d finished it and it was morning. Thank god it was the weekend. Seven Devils […]
✶Blog Tour✶ Review and Excerpt: The Secret of You and Me by Melissa Lenhardt
TW: Homophobia, alcohol addiction, racism, islamophobia and cheating (quite a lot). Brief mentions of PTSD as heroine was in the military. Generally, I don’t go out of my way to read cheating stories but occasionally I’ve come across some done really well and because the blurb promised some angst and pining I wanted to give […]
