My Review for We Fly Beneath the Stars by Suzanne Kelman

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I read a lot of historical fiction, particularly based on facts surrounding World War II, but never before have I read anything that focused on Russian women who became pilots to fight for their country. I didn’t realise this was a thing and now I have to know whether there were any other women who flew and fought for their country during that time.Suzanne Kelman has done an amazing job with this book and decided to continue writing it and...

My Review for The Midnight Library by Matt Haig

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I can’t believe that I have had this sitting on my shelf for about a year, and I’m only just getting around to reading it. It was so, so good, I think it will become one of my most favourite reads.Essentially, our protagonist, Nora, is on the brink of death but gets the opportunity to see what her life would have been like if she had made alternative choices about many things. However, no life is perfect, as Nora comes to realise.The Midnight...
