By far, my favourite book of this series. I was giggling and smiling throughout the whole book and as I was prepared by Helen, crying with my box of tissues towards the end. I'm a sucker for lore, and this book was so lore heavy that I couldn't put i...

Honestly this has become a comfort read for me. It gave me ‘The Mummy’ vibes with Brendan Fraser and I am here for it! That is one of my fave movies so I just knew I couldn't put this one down. I love the Egypt elements tied in with magic, the high s...

Blood & Steel

This book I was absolutely enthralled with. It had the right amount of cliche that you wanted to happen, a good storyline that has you intrigued to keep reading more and ma slow burn you can help but wait to come together.

This one was such a cute and funny read! My first real read that had a sunshine character and a grumpy villain that you can’t help but love! It was nice to have a light hearted read after some of the heavy fantasy books I’ve been consuming!

I could not put this one down! I think I finished it in two days! This book had me hooked from the very beginning, it was unlike anything I had read so far and I needed to see how it finished. I love the old time feels, a magic typewriter and fol...

I really enjoyed the story that this book took me on! It did take a little to get in to as I was trying to wrap my head around the different POVs Kate was introducing, but as I got over that I fell in love! The way Kate writes really paints a clear p...
