About

  About Amy Hello, I'm Amy, an aspiring motorsports writer and former blogger.  If you dig deeper enough, you find some very old blog posts, as this started as a book blog, but that's really where I got my start in writing: book reviews, hot book topics and as well as the odd personal essay.  After leaving university, I left the book blog behind, but continued writing and going in the world of social media, writing film reviews and promoting queer cinema, but after a tragic event in my personal life, I quickly discovered Motorsports.  What started as a love for Formula 1, while finally watching the Formula 1 film, Rush, and discovering Formula 1 TikTok, this love soon expanded to everything Formula E, IndyCar, Formula 2, Formula 3, as well as F1 Academy.  I soon found the itch to write come back, with the fast-moving news of motorsport, to the drama, the competition, and the journey of drivers trying to find a race seat.

Blog Tour The Wrong Side Of Kai Guest Post: Estelle Maskame's TBR List

So it is my turn on The Wrong Side Of Kai Blog Tour and I have a guest post from Estelle Maskame which is her TBR (To Be Read) list. So now over to Estelle...

On The Come Up - Angie Thomas
I absolutely loved The Hate U Give so I’ve been looking forward to reading more from this author because her writing style is so engaging.





Fangirl - Rainbow Rowell
This one has been a long-term item on my TBR shelves. This book was huge a few years ago and has so much hype, so I’ve been meaning to get around to it for a while now.




The Harry Potter series - JK Rowling
I know, I know... Am I even British? I’ve owned the entire series for a couple years now, but have yet to tackle such an intimidating stack of books. I swear I’ll do it soon though!





Into The Water - Paula Hawkins

A non-YA TBR addition. I do love a good thriller every now and again, and this one comes highly recommended to me by my mum. I just hope it’s not as addictive as The Girl on the Train because that one kept me up all night!




Opposite of Always - Justin A. Reynolds
I’d never heard of this book until it caught my eye in Waterstones recently and was sucked straight in by the blurb. A boy who’s stuck in a loop of time while he tries to stop his girlfriend from dying? Count me in!




Scared Little Rabbits - A.V. Geiger
I’m not sure if A.V. Geiger is published in the UK, but I was lucky enough to receive an American ARC of her latest book and I am SO excited to dive into it. It’s a YA thriller and if it’s anything like her previous novels, then I’ll devour the whole book in one sitting. 




To Kill a Mockingbird - Harper Lee
Again, another book I feel as though I should have read years ago. I’ve been dying to find out what all the hype is around this book and why it’s such a classic. 





Thank you to Estelle and Ink Road for the guest post and opportunity to be on the blog tour!

Find out more about The Wrong Side Of Kai here...


Vanessa Murphy doesn't do relationships.

With a father who doesn't notice her, it's easy for her to sneak around with her latest fling, Harrison Boyd. But when an explicit video of Vanessa hooking up with Harrison is leaked the morning after she ends things with him, her life is thrown into chaos.

And Vanessa wants payback. Enter Kai. With his own vendetta against Harrison, Kai proposes revenge, and the two pair up to ruin Harrison Boyd's life. At first, they are nothing more than an illicit partnership. Teammates working towards the same mission.

But – between late-night stakeouts and crime committing – Vanessa is drawn into Kai's life. And, as the two grow closer, she finds herself letting Kai into hers.

So since the start of the Popsugar Reading Challenge started in 2015 I have taken part every year and this year is no exception. I have never completed the challenge fully and I don't think that I will this year but I'm going to try. I will try to update this throughout the year but as I saw last year this may not be the case. But without further ado, let's look at the prompts... A book that's published in 2020: Heartstopper Volume 3 by Alice Oseman  A book by a trans or nonbinary author: The Bright Side Volume 1 Dee & Em by A. Francis  A book with a great first line: Into The Crooked Place by Alexandra Christo  A book about a book club: Read With Pride by Lucy Powrie  A book set in a city that has hosted the Olympics: Fleabag: The Scriptures by Phoebe Waller-Bridge  A bildungsroman: The Underground Railroad by Coulson Whitehead  The first book you touch on a shelf with your eyes closed: Paper Girls Volume One by Brian K.

Book Review: The Extraordinaries by T J Klune

  * I am reviewing this book which I was gifted for free from the publisher in exchange for an honest review. All thoughts are my own. * Title: The Extraordinaries Author: T J Klune Publisher: Hodder/ Hodderscape Source: From Netgalley ( Bookshop UK |  Hive |  Goodreads  |  Storygraph ) Book Summary: I n Nova City, there are extraordinary people, capable of feats that defy the imagination. Shadow Star protects the city and manipulates darkness, and Pyro Storm is determined to bring the city to its knees using his power over fire. And then there's Nick who . . . well, being the most popular fanfiction writer in the Extraordinaries fandom is a superpower, right? Instead of fighting crime, Nick contends with a new year at school, a father who doesn't trust him, and a best friend named Seth, who may or may not be the love of Nick's short, uneventful life. It should be enough. But after a chance encounter with Shadow Star, Nova City's mightiest hero (and Nick's bigge...
