Out on a Limb book review

Earlier this year I read both Next of Kin and Next to You and loved them both so I knew that once this was rereleased I would need to read it as soon as possible. My library got the ebook on release day so I immediately got it out and binged the entire book within 24 hours and I’m so glad I did, along with it being my first HBY 5 star.

Out on a Limb by Hannah Bonam-Young follows Win who after a one night stand has discovered she is pregnant and now with Bo, who she is remaining strictly friends with, she is embarking on this new journey with almost unavoidable chemistry.

Throughout the story we follow both Bo and Win as they face and tackle their fears about becoming parents which in many ways feel like more of the focus than the actual pregnancy was, which may appeal for even those who don’t like the accidental pregnancy trope. I really liked learning about Win as the book went on and who she was as a person because she was a character who I found I loved and wanted to support. I also really liked meeting Bo and learning who he was and why he behaved how he did. I also found myself really liking our side characters of Sarah and Caleb whose book I cannot wait to read next year.

I really enjoyed the story and am so happy to have finally read it. The romance was fantastic and had me desperate to keep reading to see how everything would end up for Bo and Win by the end of the book. I also enjoyed seeing the characters come together and learn each other and how they could work together with both of their strengths and weaknesses. It was also nice to see how both Bo and Win were impacted by their disabilities and how they made it work for them.

I highly recommend this romance book and it was such an easy 5 star read. I am loving all of Hannah Bonam-Young’s books and cannot wait to get to read my next one whenever that may be. These are such fun romances that I cannot put down and have me loving the characters so so much.

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...
