Hello friends! I’m running a teensy bit behind schedule this week so apologies for that! The book I’m reviewing today came out yesterday (13th May) and is a character driven sci-fi where a new technology changes life as we know it. Sounds interesting, right? It really was! So today I’ll be talking about We are Satellites by Sarah Pinsker. Let’s get straight into it, shall we?
Hello friends and hello May! I feel like April FLEW by. With my birthday, a move on the horizon and everything re-opening, it’s been a busy few weeks. But we’re not here to talk about that. We’re here to talk about BOOKS! And I have another fabulous selection of upcoming releases to share with you today. All of these books are coming out this month so you’ll want to add them to your TBR as quickly as possible. Let’s see which May 2021 book releases I’m most excited about, shall we?
Last year, I rediscovered my love of reading and found so many new-to-me authors whose fictional worlds took me away from the harsh realities we were living in. One of those authors was Silvia Moreno-Garcia. So I was beyond thrilled to get accepted to read and review The Beautiful Ones. The book was originally published in 2017 but is now being reprinted with a stunning cover!
Pandemic fiction isn’t for everyone – especially now! Personally, I turn to books to give context to the world as I know it and to help process my own thoughts and feelings about certain experiences. So I was fairly intrigued by the premise of The End of Men by Christina Sweeney-Baird. A pandemic that affects only men and wipes out 90% of the male population worldwide? Big yikes but also big intrigue. I wasn’t sure what to expect but ultimately I ended up enjoying it. And I’m going to talk a little bit more about that right now… PLEASE NOTE: This post discusses pandemic living including the death of loved ones and grief. Please do not read further if these…
Hello friends! You might already know but it’s my birthday tomorrow – woop woop! So I wanted to share my Spring TBR with you. If you’ve been around here for a while, you’ll know that I CANNOT follow a TBR to save my own life. I make these lists and I NEVER keep to them. So this one is a bit more flexible. It’s literally just a list of books that I want to prioritise reading over the next two months. And there’s a pretty good mix of genres! I probably won’t get to all of them and that’s okay… But anyway, that’s enough waffle from me – here’s my TBR!
Happy Friday! Today’s post is just a short one because I’m going to take some time off. I won’t be gone long and, in any case, I won’t give you a chance to miss me as there will still be a new blog post every Wednesday.
