Hello Bibliofriends,I read Given to the Sea by Mindy McGinnis (book 1 in this duology) when it came out back in 2017. It was one of the first books I ever received in my FairyLoot subscription and I became totally enamoured with the world featured in the story. As part of my 2020 reading mission...

Happy Sunday Bibliofriends, I can't believe we are nearly at the end of May. It seems that so many things have happened this month yet it has been relatively chilled at the same time. This week's Six For Sunday is all about my favourite characters in a series. I am a massive fan of all... Continue Reading →
Happy Sunday Bibliofriends, Well this weekend has seen a first for me – I celebrated my birthday in Lockdown on Friday! 🎉🎈🎂 It was quite strange not to be able to physically go out and spend time in the sunshine with family and friends as I normally would, but thankfully the joys of technology still...

Happy Sunday bibliofriends! Six for Sunday was quite an open topic this week with it being ‘Favourite Genre’ so I went for six sequels from my favourite genre, YA Fantasy, that I’m really looking forward to reading.
