Since I didn’t read many books in July, I decided to lump my July and August book reviews together. I then proceeded to read all the books in the known universe in August, so prepare yourself for an inordinate amount of bookish SHOUTING… We Could Be So Good by Cat Sebastian is a historical queerContinue reading “July and August reads”

June reads
June was a rather glorious reading month – I thoroughly enjoyed every single one of these books, but I’ve restrained myself to only SHOUTING about five of them. Such restraint. Bored Gay Werewolf by Tony Santorella is such an interesting romp into toxic masculinity and heteronormative behaviour, all told through via a bored gay werewolf.Continue reading “June reads”
May reads
If you’re here, you probably quite like books so I’m not going to apologise for the bumper load of bookish SHOUTING you’re about to encounter… Glitterland is yet more proof that Alexis Hall is physically incapable of writing a bad novel. I was wary of this one as I knew it handled some fairly heavyContinue reading “May reads”
April reads
I read some absolute GEMS over April. After a couple of months of not feeling like I had much reading oomph, I am back to being wildly in love with falling into other people’s worlds… Too Hot To Sleep is Elspeth Wilson’s debut poetry pamphlet. It’s perfect for fans of The Sims and Teen Wolf,Continue reading “April reads”
March reads
I had a lush reading month in March. Loads of stories that swept me straight into the action and characters I couldn’t help but fall in love with. It was such a good reading month that I have FIVE books to SHOUT about… Welcome to St. Hell by Lewis Hancox is a hopeful and heartfeltContinue reading “March reads”
February reads
I had a LUSH reading month in February – I even read a book that I think could be my favourite of the WHOLE HECKING YEAR! And it’s this – Adult Assembly Required by Abbi Waxman. This could broadly be called a romcom, and it does contain some of those elements, but for me thisContinue reading “February reads”
January reads
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”
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”
