Review: Normal People by Sally Rooney
This book has won multiple awards and was longlisted for The Man Booker Prize in 2018. However, this was a book I just couldn’t get along with. I know this is either a book you loved, or you hated but unfortunately, I was the latter. Warning to those choosing to give this a shot – Trigger Warning of sexual assault, domestic violence, depression, anxiety and suicide. If I’m completely honest I would have probably DNF’d this one, but I genuinely wanted to see if it would improve especially since it is an award-winning book.

ARC Review: Coral by Sara Ella

Clear My Name by Paula Daly
I received a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review. All thoughts are my own. Holy Mother of all that is decent! Clear My Name was a heart stopper. Do you want a book that’s going to suck you in from page one? Do you want a book that tears up your conceptions and sets them alight? Do you want a book that bins the rulebook on Thriller formulas? Well look no further this book has it all in spades. There are thrills galore, this is certainly not likened to a pair of comfy slippers this is a hellish pair of stilettos whilst you dodge a minefield…the…
