Gone with the Wind
Wuthering Heights is a tale that I have been enamoured with since a young age and have found pleasure in reading and re-reading at least five times thus far. It is the story of the passionate and destructive fire of love that burns between Heathcliff...
Wuthering Heights by Emily Bronte

Shadow of the Moon by M.M. Kaye

My Favourite Books
This book should come with every trigger warning known to man. Nothing anywhere prepares the reader for the contents of this book. Contains explicit detail of violence, physical abuse, sexual abuse, emotional abuse, and self-harm. Not for those strug...

Sense and Sensibility
Truly stunning to its core in style and content and entirely relevant in today's day. Jodi Picoult is a gifted storyteller with a gifted mind, who does not hesitate to write about the topics which others shy away from touching or discussing.

Pride and Prejudice
Another of my favourite Jane Austen reads - a bold and spirited FMC as always!
Emma (novel)
One of the most understated Jane Austen books and one of her earliest works. A short story, written in the form of letters sent between the characters, it is a work of literary genius! It needs to be talked about more!

Jane Eyre: Bronte, Charlotte
A timeless literary classic by one of my favourite writers of all time
