January has been a bit of a brutal start to the year for me (if it has been for you too, then I send you virtual hugs!), and it’s safe to say that reading was a real comfort. Especially these stonkers… To really appreciate A Restless Truth by Freya Marske in all its glory, youContinue reading “January reads”

November reads
Five of the books I read in November were AMAZING and one of them was UTTER SHITE. I just won’t talk about the shite one, and you can do the math… Ocean’s Echo is Everina Maxwell’s second novel, and it’s just as glorious as the first. Both of her spacey love stories are set inContinue reading “November reads”
Main Characters in romcoms
I’ve been reading a fair few romcoms lately (both as an editor and for funsies), so I thought I would do a thread about how to make sure that your main character pops right off the page and lodges themselves right in your readers’ hearts. A little disclaimer: previous clients – please don’t worry thatContinue reading “Main Characters in romcoms”
October reads
Only four books read this month (the slump continues!) BUT they were all RATHER GOOD… The Golden Enclaves by Naomi Novik is the conclusion to the Scholomance trilogy, so you really need to go off and read the first two before this one. But that will be TIME WELL SPENT. These books are glorious –Continue reading “October reads”
September Reads
Although I love autumn and my writing has gotten a burst of inspiration, September was a very slow reading month! Despite that, I read two absolute corkers… Devil’s Mark by Lark Taylor is SUCH a fun read. This is a love story about two people who never thought they would get a happy ever afterContinue reading “September Reads”
August reads
August was a whole glorious month of for me, so in addition to the ten books listed here I also read a stonking 12 books on Kindle Unlimited. Time well spent! Here are my faves… I adored Love on the Brain by Ali Hazelwood. Fans of The Love Hypothesis will not be disappointed. There isContinue reading “August reads”
July reads
I am currently a STONKING ten books ahead of schedule for my challenge of reading 100 books this year. Madness! This has been helped by downloading a month’s trial of Kindle Unlimited where I’ve read loads of fun stories. I shall be asking for a e-reader for Christmas but in the meantime, I’ve read someContinue reading “July reads”
June reads
Apparently I was a reading swot during June. I read a whopping 13 books – which I think is my record since I started these reading blogs! It was difficult to whittle it down, but here are my faves… I was giddy to be invited to the launch party for Twice Hexed by Julia Tuffs,Continue reading “June reads”
May reads
May had it all – adventures in space, scheming fairies, and love stories galore! Here are my faves… Winter’s Orbit by Everina Maxwell cemented my view that I really do love things set way in the future and in a galaxy far, far away. This setting gives authors the freedom to change facets of societyContinue reading “May reads”
Impostor Syndrome
My experience of this beast Impostor syndrome is the little voice in our heads saying, ‘Are you really good enough? Have you got enough experience to do that? Do you even know what you’re talking about? Surely there is someone out there who is better at this than you? Shouldn’t you go learn some moreContinue reading “Impostor Syndrome”
