The Puzzle Women: before we begin… Anna Ellory and I attended the same Creative Writing course at Bath Spa University, and I was lucky enough to see some very early drafts of this MSS shortly after she’d sold The Rabbit Girls. I am totally honoured to read and review her book, but if it sounds […]

RE: 40(ish) Books to Read During Lockdown (which aren’t classics)
So there I was, happily scrolling through news articles about books for one of my clients, and I see an article all about books you should read during Lockdown. Colour me intrigued! But as I begin to scroll through, I realise something; all the titles are classics (except for Roald Dahl’s Charlie and the Chocolate […]
Never Have I Ever vs Loveboat, Taipei – Cultural Representation and Resistance.
These stories are not wholly synonymous; there are plenty of elements within them that are vastly different.
On 3… The Unadoptables
I know, I know, it’s been 100 years. I’m a bad blogger. I’m really sorry! I’m going to AIM for more consistency. But it seems that once I get one line of content running smoothly, the other falls apart. Definitely check out my other content streams, because I like to try a little of everything! […]
On 3… Crescent City, House of Earth and Blood.
Can you believe I’m going into this review as a Sarah J. Maas virgin? I know. Crazy. There are a few of us still out there. But we’re like unicorns, or leprechauns, or any other ‘orn’. Tricky to find, and possibly just a horse in disguise. Anyway… Sarah J. Maas burst onto the writing scene […]
Why I haven’t finished the ‘To All the Boys’ series.
To All The Boys I Loved Before is a young adult romance series, written with care by Jenny Han, and turned into a Rom-Com for Netflix. I’d highly recommend it! As someone who prefers to watch romance (and it needs to have that comedy element to it, I’m not really a ‘Notebook’ style gal) to […]
On 3… The Sin Eater
For those of you who have not read an ‘On Three’ review before: I review books after the 3rd chapter and determine whether I’m going to continue reading or not. Most agents only give a book three chapters (or the first 50 pages) and I find it’s gauge enough to know whether I’m going to […]

On Three… Love is for Losers
I always thought there were two types of book which allowed for social commentary on absentee parents, broken friendships, and the prospect of new romance. Those that allowed characters to breathe, reflect and learn. And those that rush through the narrative at breakneck speed. Somehow, Love is for Losers does both. ‘Mum’s a docter first […]
Flash Fiction – Real-Time Record/Write
After the amazing Basically Britt uploaded a video where she recorded herself reading in real-time, I felt inspired to do a Write With Me: Real-time video! If you’d like to see that click the link here! As for what I wrote: Here it is. Prompt taken from ‘642 Things to Write About’ – A conversation about […]
