Happy Monday bookish people! How are you all doing today? I hope you are all doing good.
Today I am bringing you my book review for Queen B by Juno Dawson, a novella prequel from the Her Majesty’s Royal Coven and The Shadow Cabinet world.
⭐⭐⭐
Rating: 3 out of 5.
Blurb/Synopsis:
The next enchanting instalment of the sensational #1 SUNDAY TIMES bestselling HER MAJESTY’S ROYAL COVEN fantasy series takes us back to the reign of Henry VIII and the origins of Her Majesty’s Royal Coven under the beautiful, the bewitching, Anne Boleyn.
BOW DOWN WITCHES
It’s 1536 and the Queen has been beheaded.
Lady Grace Fairfax, witch, knows that something foul is at play – that someone had betrayed Anne Boleyn and her coven.
Wild with the loss of their leader – and her lover, a secret that if spilled could spell Grace’s own end – she will do anything in her power to track down the traitor.
But there’s more at stake than revenge: it was one of their own, a witch, that betrayed them, and Grace isn’t the only one looking for her. King Henry VIII has sent witchfinders after them, and they’re organized like they’ve never been before under his new advisor, the impassioned Sir Ambrose Fulke, a cold man blinded by his faith. His cruel reign could mean the end of witchkind itself.
If Grace wants to find her revenge and live, she will have to do more than disappear.
She will have to be reborn.
In this gripping, propulsive, sultry novella, Juno Dawson takes us back to the bloody beginnings of Her Majesty’s Royal Coven to show us the strength, steel and sacrifice it takes to make a sisterhood.
My Review:
I will be honest, I picked this book up for the simple fact that it had Anne Boleyn in it. I basically will read anything for Anne Boleyn. I can’t say I didn’t like this book, because I did but because it was only a novella I didn’t feel like I got to know the characters well enough to care about them. I thought the story was well thought out to try and include historical fact and mix it with the fantasy elements but for me there wasn’t enough of the book for me to get into it and really enjoy it.
Happy Friday bookish people! I hope you are all doing well today. It is that time f the year, time for me to share of the 50+ books I have read this year, which ones are the five I have least enjoyed. I can tell you this year has been very varied, I have had a few five stars which you will see next week in my favourite books of the year post so keep your eyes peeled for that but on the other end I have also had some books that I really did not enjoy.
Of those, here are the five books I enjoyed the least this year.
In at number five is…
The Twat Files by Dawn French
This is a nonfiction book that I got a signed edition of when I went to see her at my local Theatre with Darcey Bussell, I enjoyed the show but the book was a miss for me. I didn’t find it funny and I wasn’t entertained by it. That’s why it is number five on my least favourite books of this year.
In Number four is…
The Last Devil to Die by Richard Osman
This is the fourth book in the Thursday Murder Club series and some of the books in the series I have enjoyed but this one I really did not. I have put up a book review for this one in November if you’d like to read all of my thoughts.
In number three is…
Love Letters to a Serial Killer by Tasha Coryell
This one was such a disappointment for me. The premise of this book was very promising with a woman needing something in her life and writing letters to a serial killer and then getting wrapped up in a murder mystery but the execution of this novel was not good. It could have been much better in my opinion.
In number two is…
The Housekeepers by Alex Hay
This was another mystery book that had a great premise but poor execution. In my opinion this book felt lazy and there were more than one plot point that didn’t fit or was never finished and it was a book that I wish I had DNF’d it instead of pushing on to finish it.
My least favourite book of this year was….
Nine Lives by Peter Swanson
This was not a terrible book, I will say that, my problem with it was that it too closely resembled another book to the point where I felt that it bordered on plagiarism. Obviously it was a more modern version of that book but the plot was very similar and that ruined it for me.
Happy Monday bookish people! I hope you are all having a good day today. I am bringing you a book review today of Powerless by Lauren Roberts. If you have read this book, what did you think of it?
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Rating: 5 out of 5.
Blurb/Synopsis:
She is the very thing he’s spent his whole life hunting. He is the very thing she’s spent her whole life pretending to be.
Only the extraordinary belong in the kingdom of Ilya—the exceptional, the empowered, the Elites.
The powers these Elites have possessed for decades were graciously gifted to them by the Plague, though not all were fortunate enough to both survive the sickness and reap the reward. Those born Ordinary are just that—ordinary. And when the king decreed that all Ordinaries be banished in order to preserve his Elite society, lacking an ability suddenly became a crime—making Paedyn Gray a felon by fate and a thief by necessity.
Surviving in the slums as an Ordinary is no simple task, and Paedyn knows this better than most. Having been trained by her father to be overly observant since she was a child, Paedyn poses as a Psychic in the crowded city, blending in with the Elites as best she can in order to stay alive and out of trouble. Easier said than done.
When Paeydn unsuspectingly saves one of Ilyas princes, she finds herself thrown into the Purging Trials. The brutal competition exists to showcase the Elites’ powers—the very thing Paedyn lacks. If the Trials and the opponents within them don’t kill her, the prince she’s fighting feelings for certainly will if he discovers what she is—completely Ordinary.
My Review:
Let’s just start by saying I think this book was fantastic. I loved the premise of the kingdom turning against those who are ordinary and wanting everyone to have powers. Usually it is the other way around in the books I have read so this was quite refreshing. The main thing that I think I loved was the character dynamics, Paedyn was a great female lead character and the two princes with their own motivations and limitations and how they all interacted I found fascinating, I never quite knew where this book would go next. I will say, for the people who have read it, I did not like the character if Adana, when I was reading her I was reading her as a young child character but I later found out she was older and that did not work for me, I also think that she could have been utilized better as a character. I finished this a few days ago and I haven’t stopped thinking about it, I want to pick up the next one immediately.
Happy Friday bookish people! I hope you are all doing good. I wanted to do something a little bit different today. I have been seeing everywhere people tracking the series’ that they are reading. How many they have started, how many they have completed and reminding themselves of which series’ they are currently in the middle of. So, I thought, why not have a look at how many series’ I am reading… there’s a lot. It’s about the amount I was expecting because I do love reading a series and getting all that time with a group of characters but I am terrible at keeping up to date with them. I have found over the years that I can’t binge a series one book right after the other, I have to spread them out with other books inbetween so then it takes me forever to get around to reading them again.
So, here’s a breakdown of the series’ I own and the ones I have read – or not.

The Bloodlines series by Richelle Mead – a spin-off to the Vampire Academy series

Grand total = 165 series!! Wow, that’s a lot. Hopefully I will make better progress with them in 2025. What are your priority series’ for 2025?
Happy Monday Bookish People! How are you all doing today? I hope you are all doing well.
As we approach the end of the year I am continuing with a post I now do monthly which is to mention some of the books that are being published in the coming month. I have to say, I live in the UK, and I really struggled to find some books that were being published this month, I believe I have three to share with you which is a bit disappointing but I wanted to make this post anyway and just share those three. So, those books are:
A Monsoon Rising by Thea Guanzon – coming out 5th December
Two hearts circle each other in the eye of the storm in this highly-anticipated follow-up to The Hurricane Wars—prepare for more enemies-to-lovers romance, magical adventures, and political schemes in this Southeast Asian-inspired world.
After a lifetime of war, Alaric and Talasyn were thrust into an alliance between their homelands that was supposed to end the fighting; however, being married to their sworn foe feels far from peaceful. Now Talasyn must play the part of Alaric’s willing empress while her allies secretly plot to overthrow his reign. But the longer the couple are forced together, the harder it becomes to deny the feelings crackling like lightning between them. When the time comes to act, can she trust him, or must she ignore her heart for the sake of so many others?
As the master of the Shadowforged Legion, Alaric has trained for battle all his life, but marrying a Lightweaver might be his most dangerous challenge yet. With tensions between nations churning, he needs to focus on the greater threat—the Moonless Dark, a cataclysmic magical event that could devour everything. Only he and Talasyn can stop it, with a powerful merging of light and shadow that they alone can create together. But saving their world from this disaster is a mere preface to his father’s more sinister schemes, and his wife is a burning flame in the darkness, tempting both his loyalties and his desires.
The Hurricane Wars aren’t over. It’s time to choose what—and who—to fight for. The world holds its breath amidst a whirlwind of new magic and old secrets that could change everything.
The Voyage Home by Pat Barker – this is coming out in the beginning of December
The follow-up to Pat Barker’s Number One bestseller THE WOMEN OF TROY
Continuing the story of the captured Trojan women as they set sail for Mycenae with the victorious Greeks, this new novel centres on the fate of Cassandra — daughter of King Priam, priestess of Apollo, and a prophet condemned never to be heeded. (When she refuses to have sex with Apollo, after he has kissed her, granting her the gift of true prophecy, he spits in her mouth to make sure she will never be believed.)
Psychologically complex and dangerously driven, Cassandra’s arrival in Mycenae will set in motion a bloody train of events, drawing in King Agamemnon, his wife Clytemnestra and daughter Electra. Agamemnon’s triumphant return from Troy is far from the celebration he imagined, and the fate of the Trojan women as uncertain as they had feared.
Wind and Truth by Brandon Sanderson – coming out 6th December
The long-awaited explosive climax to the first arc of the #1 New York Times bestselling Stormlight Archive―the iconic epic fantasy masterpiece that has sold more than 10 million copies, from acclaimed bestselling author Brandon Sanderson.
Dalinar Kholin challenged the evil god Odium to a contest of champions with the future of Roshar on the line. The Knights Radiant have only ten days to prepare―and the sudden ascension of the crafty and ruthless Taravangian to take Odium’s place has thrown everything into disarray.
Desperate fighting continues simultaneously worldwide―Adolin in Azimir, Sigzil and Venli at the Shattered Plains, and Jasnah at Thaylen City. The former assassin, Szeth, must cleanse his homeland of Shinovar from the dark influence of the Unmade. He is accompanied by Kaladin, who faces a new battle helping Szeth fight his own demons . . . and who must do the same for the insane Herald of the Almighty, Ishar.
At the same time, Shallan, Renarin, and Rlain work to unravel the mystery behind the Unmade Ba-Ado-Mishram and her involvement in the enslavement of the singer race and in the ancient Knights Radiants killing their spren. And Dalinar and Navani seek an edge against Odium’s champion that can be found only in the Spiritual Realm, where memory and possibility combine in chaos. The fate of the entire Cosmere hangs in the balance.
Happy Friday bookish people! How are you all doing today? It is December, the final month of 2024, and I am excited to get stuck into reading the christmassy books that I have, admittedly I don’t have very many but the ones I have, I plan on reading.
December for me is looking like it will be a busy month, my diary is already getting pretty full so hopefully I will still have some time to read.
What are you planning to read in December? Any special plans for Christmas?
December TBR
A Lively Midwinter Murder by Katy Watson
Everybody This Christmas Has A Secret by Benjamin Stevenson
Hercule Poirot’s Silent night by Sophie Hannah
Murder on the Dancefloor by Helena Dixon
Okay, this one isn’t exactly christmas but it is set in winter and I have been reading one a month of this series so I want to continue this.
Happy Monday bookish people! How are you all today? It is December, the final month of 2024 but before that we need to talk about how November went.
As a month in general, not the best honestly. It seemed to be a month of one bad thing after another, but hopefully we are past all of that now. Onwards and upwards. In terms of reading, it was actually one of my best months of the year. I have started doing an hour or two of reading every evening instead of watching something on TV and it has made me feel much better, not only in terms of loving what I am reading but also I just feel better within myself, most of the time. Reading has been a great escape from everything this month.
How was your reading this month? Any new favourite books?
My November TBR was:
Murder At The Playhouse by Helena Dixon – the third book in the Miss Underhay cosy mystery series – I did read this and LOVED it, it might be my favourite one in the series so far.
Emily Wilde’s Encyclopedia of Fairies by Heather Fawcett – I did not get to this one, I really wanted to and still do but it wasn’t at the top of my priorities for this month.
Curtain Calls to Murder by Julian Clary – I did read this book. It looked like something i would love from the description and I didn’t hate it but it also wasn’t something I loved. If you’re interested in knowing why I will be writing a review soon.
Powerless by Lauren Roberts – I finally read this and again, I loved it. I will be putting up my review for this in December so look out for that if you are interested.
The Undertaking of Hart and Mercy by Megan Bannon – I am currently reading this book and honestly, I’m not sure at the moment if this is going to be a soft DNF and I will come back to it later or if I am going to push through and see if I like it. I am 100 pages ish in and I have no idea what is going on so we will see.
People of Abandoned Character by Clare Whitfield – I did not read this. I just was not in the mood this month for a gothic feeling book.
The Secret Service of Tea and Treason by India Holton – I did not get to this either which was a shame because I was hoping to get a series finished and crossed off my list.
Queen B by Juno Dawson – I did read this, I love anything Anne Boleyn so I wanted to make sure that I gave this book a go.
Diabolical Bones by Bella Ellis – I did not get around to this book either unfortunately.
Pandora by Susan Stokes Chapman – This was one book that I really wanted to get around to but it just didn’t happen this month.
So, from my TBR I read five books this month which I am pretty happy with but, I also read two books outside of my TBR. I finished Throne of the Fallen by Kerri Maniscalco and then I also read The League of Lady Poisoners.
So, overall I read seven books this month. Which is a great amount in my opinion. I am happy with it and excited to get started on my December TBR.
Happy Friday bookish people! I hope you are all having a good day today. Today I am bringing you the End of Year Book Tag, it is never too early for this. I found this tag on Twirling Book Princess’s Blog.
What would be your answers to these questions? Let me know down in the comments.
Are there any books you started this year you need to finish? I can instantly think of one, which is I Hope You’re Listening by Tom Ryan, I need to read this one to write about it in my PhD. I started it earlier in the year and got about 100 pages in, but it talks about the abduction of a child and I wasn’t in the right mindset for it so I couldn’t continue but I need to get this one read by the end of 2024.
Do you have an autumnal book to transition to the end of the year? Not an autumnal book but I love reading complex fantasy and cosy mysteries around this time of year and I have got a few of those to choose from luckily.
Is there a new release you are still waiting for? I am literally waiting in today to get my copy of Spectacular by Stephanie Garber, I can’t wait to read this and be back in the world of Caraval.
What are three books you want to read by the end of the year? My top three to read at the moment are: Powerless by Lauren Roberts, Curtain Calls to Murder by Julian Clary and Queen B by Juno Dawson
Is there a book that could still be your favourite? Ooh, I don’t know, my absolute favourite book is the Starless Sea and I don’t think there’s one that can top that but as far as a favourite of the year, I have read some amazing books so far. There are possibly a few books on my November TBR that could top it but I’m not sure on that, at this point I think my favourite of 2024 is between A Study in Drowning by Ava Reid and The King’s Mother by Annie Garthwaite.
Have you already made reading plans for 2025? I have not, I haven’t started thinking about 2025 at all, not just for reading. I should really seeing as it is only a few months away.
Happy Monday bookish people! I hope you are all having a good day!
Today, I am bringing you my book review for The Last Devil to Die by Richard Osman, the fourth book in the Thursday Murder Club.
Blurb/Synopsis:
Shocking news reaches the Thursday Murder Club.
An old friend in the antiques business has been killed, and a dangerous package he was protecting has gone missing.
As the gang springs into action they encounter art forgers, online fraudsters and drug dealers, as well as heartache close to home.
With the body count rising, the package still missing and trouble firmly on their tail, has their luck finally run out? And who will be the last devil to die?
My Review:
Okay, so, this book is the fourth in a series and I have read them all. Quickly, I will say my opinions on the rest of the series: Book 1 I thought was okay, it wasn’t anything special but it was an okay read, the second book I did enjoy – I liked it a lot more, book 3 I did not enjoy because it felt unnecessarily complex and didn’t seem to understand where it was going itself and now we get to book four. I really disliked this book.
I will say there were two parts I liked, first that Joyce had a larger role as a leader rather than a follower I did like seeing that character progression and secondly, there is a character who struggles with dementia and that was explored a lot in this book – I would say it was explored too much, too much time was devoted to that part of the story and it brought the mood of the whole series down but it is always good to see real life themes appear in books.
I read someone else’s review to see if other people were feeling the same way as me, and they described this book as feeling like the author was bored with writing it and I definitely agree with that. It did feel bored and it felt like it didn’t understand what it was trying it say, the plot easily could have been condensed by about 200 pages, most of it felt like filler put in just for the sake of it. I did not enjoy it at all.
Have you read this book? What did you think of it?
Happy Friday bookish people! I hope you are all having a good day today, I thought it might be fun to share the top five series’ that I would like to finish up by the end of 2024. I have started a lot of series, I love getting to spend multiple books with characters so it is the main bulk of what I read.
Here are the five I want to prioritise:
The Hercule Poirot series by Sophie Hannah
I only have one book left, Hercule Poirot’s Silent Night, then I am up to date with this series and seeing as it has a winter/christmas theme I should get to read this in December.
The Painted Dragon by Katherine Woodfine
This is the third book in the series starting with the Clockwork Sparrow, there are actually four books out in this series but I only own the first three and I don’t plan on buying the fourth so I will be finishing the series with book three.
As Good As Dead by Holly Jackson
This is the third and final book in the Good Girl’s Guide to Murder series, I have been putting it off because I love the first two and I have heard mixed things about the last book but I would like to get this one finished off soon.
The Secret Service of Tea and Treason by India Holton
This series is very quirky and fun and this is the third and final book in the series. I have it on my TBR for November so hopefully that will be this series finished up.
A Death in Diamonds by S J Bennett
This is the fourth book in the Queen Elizabeth II investigates series and reading it would mean I am up to date with the series so far. I do enjoy this series although not every books has been brilliant, I’d say two out of the three I have read so far were great and one was not, so fingers crossed for this one.
