Most Anticipated Reads of 2018

There are some great books coming out in 2018 and I thought that I would mention 5 that I am really excited about. These are in no particular order so let get started...

 1. Floored by Sara Barnard, Holly Bourne, Tanya Byrne, Non Pratt, Melinda Salisbury, Lisa Williamson, Eleanor Wood

 I am so excited for this book! I got to read a sampler at YALC and this was definitely one of my favourites. I found the plot to be interesting and I can't wait to see where it goes. The authors aren't telling us who writes who which makes it even more intriguing. I just have to wait until July... 

 2. As yet titled Book by Alice Oseman

 I have been a fan of Alice's for the longest time and I love both of her books that she has released so far. I am therefore excited about Alice's new release which states that it is being released in January but I don't think that this is the case. I am excited about it whenever it will come out.

 3. Second Best Friend by Non Pratt
Second Best Friend
As I have mentioned before Non Pratt is one of my favourite authors and I just can't wait to read this short story. It comes out in January so the only consolation is that I don't have to wait too long. 












4. Clean by Juno Dawson

 CleanAgain I really love Juno's work and after reading the sampler at YALC I am really excited to get the whole book. I only have to wait until April so...













5. Purple Hearts by Michael Grant
Purple Hearts (The Front Lines #3)
I love the Solider Girls series so I can't wait for the final book to get released which I think comes out in January. I do have an early copy of this one but I don't think I will get to it before then so it is on the list.











What books are you most excited for in 2018? 

 See you soon,

 Amy

Favourite Graphic Novels & Manga of 2021

As I have read a lot of books this year, I always want to give graphic novels and manga their own celebration as they often get overlooked and do make up a lot of my reading. I also find that even though I read a lot of them, it takes a lot to convince me and make it a new favourite. So here are my best... Heartstopper Volume 4 by Alice Oseman  Like everyone on the internet, I too am a massive Heartstopper fan and Volume 4 is no different. I love the relationship of Nick and Charlie and the side characters also make the series. This one also explores the way that mental health can impact romance and it still does justice to the story and does not fall into cliches. I am eagerly anticipating the final volume but I don't want it to be over.  The Impending Blindness of Billie Scott by Zoe Thorogood One of the last graphic novels I read this year and the one that has the second amount of hype, The Impending Blindness of Billie Scott also leaves a lasting impression. I love a good Briti

Book Review: The Great Godden by Meg Rossoff

   * 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 Great Godden  Author: Meg Rossoff Publisher: Bloomsbury  Source: NetGalley ( Bookshop UK |  Hive |  Goodreads  |  Storygraph ) Book Summary: Everyone talks about falling in love like it’s the most miraculous, life-changing thing in the world. Something happens, they say, and you know … That’s what happened when I met Kit Godden. I looked into his eyes and I knew. Only everyone else knew too. Everyone else felt exactly the same way. This is the story of one family, one dreamy summer – the summer when everything changes. In a holiday house by the sea, our watchful narrator sees everything, including many things they shouldn’t, as their brother and sisters, parents and older cousins fill hot days with wine and games and planning a wedding. Enter two brothers – irresistible, charming, languidly sexy Kit and surly, silent Hugo. Suddenly there’s
