Book Review: ‘Bone Gap’ (2015)
The short: 4/5 ✦. An achingly beautiful novel that dances around the genre of magical realism with the focus of a foraging bee.
Book Review: ‘The Young Elites’ (2014)
The short: 4/5 ✦. A fascinating spin on teenagers with powers, both due to the Renaissance-esque setting and having the “bad one” be the main character.
Book Review: ‘Old School’ (2015)
The short: 4/5 ✦. Another incredibly funny installment in the incredibly funny Wimpy Kid series (though the back blurb is a little misleading!).
Book Review: ‘Heir of Fire’ (2014)
The short: 3.5/5 ✦. A fine installment of the Throne of Glass series, including more in-depth character development, plot advancement, and an all-new set of questions.
Book Review: ‘Shade’s Children’ (1997)
The short: 4.5/5 ✦. An excellent dystopian novel with strong characters, an action-driven plot, and a reflective philosophical theme.

Book Review: ‘Why Is This Night Different from All Other Nights?’ (2015)
