One of Us is Back short review

I read One of Us is Lying about two years ago, it was one of the books that started getting me into YA, and I loved it. Since then I have read her entire backlist as well as her new releases as and when they come out. My favourites have continued to be the One of Us is Lying series though so I was very excited when this book was announced and we got more information about it.

I reread One of Us is Lying and One of Us is Next ahead of starting this because I couldn't really remember what happened and I'm so glad I did because it made me so much more excited to start this. I read it all within 24 hours and just could not put it down, it was the perfect end to the story and I really hope these characters get some peace now after everything that they have had to go through.

I wasn't so sure about some characters actions during the course of this book but I could understand why they did what they did. I love all these characters so much but specifically the original Bayview 4 and Maeve as they've been a key part of all three books and I feel like I understand them better than I do Phoebe and Knox. There was so much about these characters I was excited to read about and see where their lives are going and I love how it was ended because we know a rough idea of what will happen in their lives but it was still left from us to imagine our own future for them.

I love this series and it's characters so much. I think it will forever be a five star series and one I hope I keep coming back to, along with being my go to YA mystery recommendation. If you've read this one let me know in the comments and what you thought of it.

The Match book review

Back in April I was recommended my first Sarah Adams book and really enjoyed it however it wasn’t my favourite type of romance book so when I saw this one had been rereleased and was 99p on Kindle I knew that I needed to read it. The Match follows Evie who works for a company that trains service dogs to help people with all sorts of disabilities after her life was changed when she got a service dog to help with her epilepsy and when she meets Jacob when trying to convince him how much a service dog would help his daughter she begins to fall for him and his small family. This was such a light brilliant romance that I just wanted to read and continue to be immersed in the story for as long as I could. I loved all of our major characters particularly Evie, Jacob and Sam (Jacob's daughter). Sam just added the best things to the story and the romance going on between Evie and Jacob. She was also a brilliant character on her own that you really felt for and you just underst...

Daughter of the Pirate King book review

I was expecting to enjoy this book but nowhere near as much as I did and I really wished I could have given it five stars but it was just slightly off of the mark. Daughter of the Pirate King is the first book in a duology which follows Alosa who is the well-trained seventeen year old pirate daughter of the Pirate King himself, on a mission to find part of an ancient secret map on an enemy pirates ship. This is possibly the first pirate fantasy I’ve ever read, but I loved it and need to read more because there were so many fantastic elements in it that I want to read more. I also now want to read all of Tricia Levenseller’s backlist because of how stunning this book was and I want to see more of it continued in her other books, also the UK covers are absolutely stunning and I really want to own them all! There were twists in this book I was not expecting, characters I fell in love with and moments that made me really laugh. Alosa knew what she wanted and how to ...

The Eternal Ones book review

I may be posting this a month after I promised I would on my bookstagram but better late than never. If you want to see more of my immediate thoughts on this conclusion to a series I have been reading for years my booksta post is here . The Eternal Ones is the final book in the YA fantasy Deathless series by Namina Forna which follows Deka as she discovers more about the world and who she is. We follow on quickly after The Merciless Ones ended with no major plot points happening in between. As with the previous two books, there are many content warnings that come with the story, it doesn’t have any new strong ones so if you have read and been fine with the previous two you should be fine but if you are new to the series then I would recommend checking them out. Throughout the books we continue to follow Deka’s POV which works really well for the story as we discover so much and being in Deka’s head means we are kept in the know nd see how things and discoveries unrav...
