Hellooooooooo my lovely bookworms. The last time I posted was middle of the summer and now it’s Autumn. Bring on the cosy nights of reading with blankets, slipper boots and autumn drinks. I’m sorry it’s been so long , neglecting my blog, something I absolutely love, but since I went back to work, it’s just been extremely busy. But I’m back slowly. I’ve trying to be more organised and forward planning some content as well. Whilst I may have been absent, I haven’t stopped reading even if it has been a chapter or 2 a day, I still reading so […]

Book Review | The Ivory Key by Akshaya Raman

Posted January 24, 2022 by Emma in 2022 Books, 5 Stars, Book Review, Fantasy, Magic, YA / 0 Comments

I had the exact same feels for both books, so that must be saying something. The Ivory Key follows four siblings, Via, Ronak, Rita and Kaleb. Each of the have gone their […]
