My Review for The Man Without Shelter by Indrajit Garai

I was approached by the author’s assistant, who asked if I would like to read a copy of The Man Without Shelter.

Lucy is a lawyer, with a promising future ahead of her and Arnault has recently been released from prison and is now living on the streets of Paris. Through various situations, their lives become linked and the story progresses.Overall,...

My Review for Happy State by Samantha Fitzgibbons

I can easily immerse myself into someone else’s dystopian world, so when Samantha Fitzgibbons reached out and asked me whether I would like to read her brand new, debut dystopian novel, Happy State, I grabbed the opportunity with both hands.Happy State is brilliantly written, and I loved it from beginning to end. It was incredibly dark throughout, and I often shuddered and wondering just what the UK would be like if democracy became a dictatorship....

My Review for You Can Become Someone: It's Your Life by Anita Onli

My Review for A Mother's Heart by Carmel Harrington, Narrated by Aoife McMahon

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ OMG, I loved A Mother’s Heart by Carmel Harrington, from the moment I put my AirPods in, until the moment I took them out. It helps that I also love Aoife McMahon. She is such a brilliant narrator who makes a book come alive and invites you into whatever world she reads about.Full of love and happiness, anger and sadness, I defy anyone who enjoys a family-related story, with its fair share of pain-in-the-ass grandparents but also loveable ones,...

My Review for Typecast by Andrea Stein

⭐⭐⭐⭐ I have had Typecast on my TBR list for a few months and after a very hectic summer, I finally got around to reading it, and boy was it worth the wait! From the very beginning, I was invested in Callie and her life, what had gone before and what was to come. Set over two main timelines, before the break-up with college boyfriend Ethan and present day where Callie is now a preschool teacher and living in the house she grew up in.Typecast was...
