Me and romance reads, I know I very rarely read or review some but here we are. They are so different and […]

Mini Book Reviews | One Last Breath by Ginny Myers Sain & Where the Heart Should Be by Sarah Crossan

Posted May 8, 2024 by Emma in 2024 Books, Book Review, Bookish Post / 0 Comments

Hello my fellow readers. Today I am catching up on some book reviews of the last month. As you saw from my April wrap-up that I had a brilliant reading month in terms of range of genres and the quality of the story. So I’m excited to share my short reviews of a unique and twisty YA supernatural thriller and a beautiful and poignant YA Historical Romance written in verse. One Last Breath is a really unique YA thriller. It reminds me of the books by Michelle Hodkins, The Unbecoming of Mara Dyer, does anyone remember those? This particular book […]

Book Review | A Heart So Fierce and Broken by Brigid Kemmerer

Posted January 10, 2020 by Emma in 2020 books, Book Review / 1 Comment

The sequel to ACSDAL! One thing I mentioned in all of the first book is that I wanted to more Grey and boy did I get that. It’s really hard to review without giving so much away in terms of spoilers if those who have or haven’t read the first book. I started this a good week and but before Christmas Eve but work was terrible so I really started it on Christmas Eve and I couldn’t put it down. It was finished at the end of Christmas Day. An unputtadownable series. I really hope this review doesn’t become a […]

BOOK REVIEW | A Curse So Dark and Lonely by Brigid Kemmerer

Posted November 28, 2019 by Emma in 2019 Books, Book Review, Fantasy, Favourite Author, Featured, YA / 1 Comment

You might have seen from my post last week that I was taking part in the Global #Cursebreakers Readalong . It is my first time reading it if you can believe that. Why I didn’t get on this fandom this year was the hype and I’ve really been trying to be mood reader too. Now was the time, the perfect season and cosy nights to just to escape into Emberfall. Right now, as I’m writing this, I’ve just finished it and I’m a little hangover from it. In once sense I want to continue to A Heart So Fierce and […]

Posted November 21, 2019 by Emma in 2019 Books, Bookish Post, Discussion Post, Emma Chats, Fairytale, Feature, YA / 3 Comments

Emma Chats… returns. I thought over the few weeks I’d talk about what I’m taking part in. One of 2019s fandoms has been A Curse So Dark and Lonely by Brigid Kemmerer. I have to say it’s one book I wanted to read since I received it back in February, but with hype and mood, it never happened until now. YOU DIDN’T TELL ME HOW AMAZING THIS BOOK IS!!!??? (or did I not listen!?) So I’m taking part in the GLOBAL read along that Bloomsbury YA are hosting, each week we are reading 20 chapters (or so!?) I’m actually sticking to the readalong […]
