We're already starting the second month of the year, and there are so many more debuts for us to read!

Book Review: Shipped by Angie Hockman

23/01/2021      Leave a Comment

I'm a fan of contemporary romances and rom-coms, but I don't tend to love them. I requested Shipped as part of my Debut Author Challenge, mostly to promote a debut author rather than thinking I was going to find a favourite book of the year. But... I did?! I loved Shipped so, so much. I was a ...

Book Review: Siri, Who Am I? by Sam Tschida

14/01/2021      Leave a Comment

Siri, Who Am I? was a fun, somewhat intriguing read about a woman who loses her memory and has to patch her life back together. It's more on the light and fluffy end of the scale, rather than serious and dramatic. I enjoyed the book, but I didn't love it, and I especially didn't love the main ...

Book Review: The Survivors by Jane Harper

12/01/2021      Leave a Comment

It's no secret that I'm a massive fan of Jane Harper, and I had to get my hands on The Survivors as soon as I saw it was up for request from NetGalley! The Survivors holds up to Harper's previous books. It's not quite in the same league as The Lost Man, which is my all time favourite of hers, but I ...

Book Review: Concrete Rose by Angie Thomas

07/01/2021      Leave a Comment

I've read all of Angie Thomas's books so far, and I just had to get my hands on Concrete Rose when I saw it was a prequel to The Hate U Give. I ended up really enjoying it, although I don't think I felt as connected or immersed as I did with THUG. ...

Happy release day to The Effort! I'm so excited to read this apocalyptic story about people coming together to prevent a global crisis. Like I said the other day, I'm really into disaster stories lately 😊

I'm smashing through my physical ARCs this week, which means it's almost time for me to read This is Not the Jess Show! I'm excited for this one, if a little cautious about how similar to The Truman Show it's going to be.

I absolutely blasted through The Girls I've Been by Tess Sharpe this week! I was worried I was getting slumpy from too much sff so I switched to a YA thriller and WHEW, it was excellent. 

The Girls I've Been is about a girl called Nora who is the daughter of a con artist (and also bi!). She's living her own life now away from her mother, and then someone tries to rob a bank while she's inside it.

This was so fast paced and I love that it was told in a non linear format. Trigger warnings for lots of things, though. You can find the full list on the author's website but the main one for me was domestic violence.

Siri, Who Am I? was my final read of 2020 and it was a fun one. While I didn't love how the main character treated others, particularly her attitude towards sex workers, I did like how fast paced this one was and the slight mystery element mixed with Rich People Drama kept me reading. Will I reread it? No. But I enjoyed my time with it well enough.
