28. Sky Chasers by Emma Carroll

This was another book from my Birthday and I laughed a lot while reading because of my idiocy at not realising what Queen they were talking about. Synopsis (as appears on back of book) is as follows: Orphan Magpie can’t believe her eyes when she sees a boy swept off his feet by a kite…or…

27. When We Were Warriors by Emma Carroll

This book was part of a set by Emma Carroll that I got for my birthday. I recently discovered Emma Carroll when I read ‘The Secrets of a Sun King’ and I fell in love with the author during those pages. It made me want to read all her books and luckily I have a…

Weekend Catch Up

Hello! Another weekend is here! Can you believe we’re in March already? I can’t believe how fast February flew past and it was filled with so many celebrations and fun times. It wasn’t just my Birthday that was celebrated in February but also my Dad’s, my Granny’s, and four of my friends. I managed to…

26. The Snow Sister by Emma Carroll

This was one of my birthday presents. I have been in love with Emma Carroll since I read ‘Secrets of a Sun King’ and this book did not disappoint. Synopsis (as taken from back of book) is as follows: Pearl was putting the finishing touches to a persona made out of snow. And that person,…

25. The Enchantment of Ravens by Margaret Rogerson

I bought this partly on a whim in Waterstones and partly because it had been recommended to me by a great many people. I was hesitant to read because when I was a teenager I read a lot of stories based on the Fey and ended up getting bored with the repetitive nature. I made…

Happy Birthday to the Last Year of my Twenties

Today (Wednesday 27th), is my birthday. I wasn’t going to write a post for it but then I got some amazing books as presents and realised I wanted to read them now!! So it will probably be quite a while till I get back to what I should be reading. In honour of the interlude…

This is a book that I took a picture of about a year and a half ago and then finally bought it in Waterstones at the beginning of January. I was very excited to read this because the synopsis held so much promise for me. Synopsis (as taken from back of the book) is as…

23. Explorers’ on Witch Mountain by Alex Bell

Having just read ‘The Polar Bear Explorer’s Club’ the first in this series, I was eager to read this second installment and found myself lost in the pages and delving into the thrilling world from the first page. This was the perfect sequel to the first book and also a great book in its own…

22. The Polar Bear Explorers’ Club by Alex Bell

I was so excited to start reading this, partly because the book I was trying to read was boring me senseless and partly because the synopsis of this sounded so good. This is another book from my Waterstones Haul. Synopsis (as taken from back of book) is as follows: Meet Shay Silverton Kipling, the Captain’s…
