Posted December 12, 2024 by Emma in Book Review, Bookish Post, YA / 2 Comments

So here is my review of the first in the Wicked Lovely series. Wicked Lovely first published around the time I was reading Twilight. It was a book that completely passed me by then as I was very much […]

I was so surprised by this book and I will tell you why. Did you cry is the Disney movie of Beauty and the Beast? I do, every single time. In a […]
