Author of dark things – thrilling novels and haunting stories
Finally a new Sanderson book! It feels like it was months ago that I finished the second Mistborn trilogy - or years even! I think I started my Sanderson journey with Skyward? A book I got from one of my sisters for Christmas ages ago. She only knew that I wanted a book, and that... Continue Reading →
This was in danger of being my least favorite Reacher book - if not worse - but it turns out it's the best! First things first - I love Lee Child and Jack Reacher, and I'm beyond hooked now. I picked up my first book a few years ago, liked it well enough, but really... Continue Reading →
Holy shit, I need more Jack Reacher in my life. It's been four years since I read my first Lee Child book. I'd heard about Jack Reacher before, seen that Tom Cruise movie from a while back, and I remember loving the book. But for some reason I never picked up another one. Then late... Continue Reading →
How great it is to be back in Westeros! A Knight Of The Seven Kingdoms is a very different books to those in the Song Of Ice And Fire series (that's Game of Thrones, by the way), and Fire & Blood (House of the Dragon). Whereas both those book series are massive epics that tell... Continue Reading →

If you're looking for your new favorite haunted house story, look no further than The Haunting Of Hill House by Shirley Jackson
Book 3 of 4 - and things are shaping up to be awesome! Honestly, book 1 didn't have me hoping for much, at least not to begin with. Like I wrote in my review, it was slow, confusing and there were far too many names. When I read this third book, I couldn't finish it... Continue Reading →
Since I'm on a King binge that I just can't seem to quit, I carried on with The Dead Zone, on someone's recommendation. I'd never heard of this book before, at all, and was surprised to find out that it's one of his earlier works. Again, going in blind makes King's books not feel so... Continue Reading →
