The Morning After Memoirs is a cross between Bridget Jones' Diary and Sex in The City with plenty of humour, adult issues and poor choices to keep a reader guessing whats next. I found Michael's writing style interesting and the British humour really refreshing. The Morning After Memoirs really highlighted that I don't get to read enough British literature! Jess goes from being a stable woman in a long term relationship to someone who has a drinking problem and a long succession of one night stands. She moves back home, starts drinking more than usual and meets all ... Continue Reading...
Review: Shattered Blue
I'm not usually one for novels about Fae because faeries have never really interested me. I took a risk reading Shattered Blue and I was pleasantly surprised! Horowitz is an extremely lyrical writer with a gift for beautiful poetry. Noa's poems are actually my favourite part of this book because they are so well written. Horowitz's poems actually reminded of the poems I was taught to memorize in grade school: simple, colorful and concise with deep meaning through imagery. Nomad girls are Lost Ones too, with leaves at foot and crown; they too seek shelter in the ... Continue Reading...

Tour/Review: The Sweet Spot
Warning: Spanking fetish and light BDSM elements Review I went in expecting a cute story about a ball player who meets a hard working girl, falls in love, works through the struggles of fame and lives happily ever after. I was wrong. Looking back on the synopsis I can tell there's a few hints to the nature of Chase's "pre-game rituals", but I honestly didn't clue into what the real plot of this book was about until it just, well, happened.. I definitely am not the intended audience, so keeping that in mind.. Chase Walker, base ball-er extraordinaire, ... Continue Reading...
Review: The Black Tongue
The Black Tongue is a beautifully written novel translated to English and originally written Swedish. The novel, keeping with the Swedish writing tradition, is a detailed and original piece with a similar narration style as Steig Larsson who wrote The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo. A chilling psychological horror with plenty of darkness and disturbing situations. A killer lives among the residents of Suvikylä in northern Finland. She kills with a hatchet, buries their hearts in a potato field and eats them after they’ve rotted black. After generations of tales and ... Continue Reading...
