The Promise of Peridot by Kate Golden
They finally arrive in Citrine, an enchanted city under the sea. Honestly the place sounds pretty amazing – diverse restaurants, 24-hour night life, everybody dressed to the nines. I love seafood so I might be biased here, but still. They also manage to pick up the human embodiment of a Labrador Retriever, Prince Fedrik. For […]
The Alpha’s Concubine by Claudia King
In the days before metal weapons, when spears and arrows were being tipped with pieces of sharpened stone, the world was divided into Sun People and Moon People.

The Notebook by Nicholas Sparks
So here is a confession – I’ve never really thought of myself as somebody who enjoys romance before. I read a few of my mother’s Harlequins as a teen and didn’t think much of them. I have always loved science fiction and fantasy. At some point I started reading fan-fiction for my favourite shows and […]

Wheel of Time Book 1: The Eye of The World by Robert Jordan
I loved the TV show so much and was so disappointed when it was cancelled. I just picked up the whole bundle. This is a placeholder for Book 1.

A Court of Silver Flames by Sarah J Maas
The last book in what is currently a series of five. I’m led to believe that another sequel is in the works. This is Nesta’s story. I am positive I am not alone in saying this book took her from being the character I had absolutely no time for to one of my favourite in […]
