A very character-driven dark academia sensation
Review of “The Atlas Six” by Olivie Blake and full cast Every ten years, the six most talented magicians are selected for potential initiation into the Alexandrian Society. For one year, they will have selective access to the secret society’s extensive archives and will have to eliminate one of their group, as only five will […]
I Kissed Shara Wheeler by Casey McQuiston, narrated by Natalie Naudus
An excellent narration raised my overall enjoyment of the story This was one of my most anticipated audiobooks of the year. One Last Stop by Casey McQuiston was one of my favourite books of 2021, it was a magnificent story, with a great cast, original and full of emotion. When I realised that a new […]
A Whisper of Solace by Milena McKay
Another gorgeous read by Milena McKay If you thought Milena McKay wrote meaningful and clever (and really hot) books, you were off the mark. Not entirely wrong but there’s so much more to her writing than that, which she reveals book after book, slowly, patiently. Just as she went one step further with The Headmistress […]
Secret Agent by Michelle Larkin, narrated by Keira Grace
A story with action, intrigue and romance in equal parts Michelle Larkin is one of the most underrated writers in lesfic. Maybe because she doesn’t write traditional romance and she doesn’t stick to a single genre either, her books go under the radar for many people. Personally, since I’ve read Sylver and Gold, I’m happy […]
When I’m with you by Monica McCallan, narrated by Lori Prince
An emotional rollercoaster of a book Monica McCallan is one of my go-to lesfic authors and Lori Prince is one of my favourite narrators. Join them together and it’s a day in lesfic paradise. Kennedy Ryan likes to live a predictable life, even if she doesn’t like her job or has never been in love […]
The Delicate Things We Make by Milena McKay, narrated by Abby Craden
A gorgeous narration for an impressive debut novel I have a lot of love and tenderness for this book. There’s something about it that speaks of a new era and gives me hope. I won’t repeat what I wrote in my original review, I still agree with myself – which isn’t always the case. It’s […]
Love Anon by Bryony Rosehurst
A very cute rom-com This is such a cute novella! A not-so-recent divorcée, Arden is fine on her own. She really is. Her family however, and her dad in particular, keeps asking when she’ll start dating again. When she inadvertently lies to her father and pretends to be seeing someone, her sister posts an ad […]
Love Bleeds Deep by Rien Gray (Fatal Fidelity #2)
The second book in this non-binary assassin series is as intriguing as the first I started this book right after In the Shadow of Love by J. E. Leak and I found the same kind of film noir atmosphere. But while in the former, the feeling comes from the era, in this series, it’s from […]
Ophelia After All by Racquel Marie, narrated by Maria Liatis
A delightful and heartwarming YA debut I went into this book hoping I’d enjoy it. I didn’t expect to love it this much. I do not know whether it’s perfect and I really don’t care if it isn’t. I love what it made me feel. I love the characters. I super love Ophelia, how could […]
