Be sure to check out my review of the first three books and Volume 2: The Kidnapped Prince first. I’ve done everything in threes in this series, so I might as well continue… Continue reading Archibald Lox Volume 3 Book Review: Sinkhole To Hell, Pick Of The Loxes & Legion Of The Lost

[GIFTED] I know I have not done a book review in a very long time, but when Darren Shan reached out and offered me review copies of the first three books of his new Archibald Lox series I couldn’t say no! Initially, I thought I would split it up into three separate book reviews, but… Continue reading Archibald Lox Series By Darren Shan Review (Books 1-3)

I picked this book up in Shakespeare & Company in Paris last year, and it’s the perfect book to review this spooky season. The Occult Book by John Michael Greer is a “Chronological Journey from Alchemy to Wicca”, from the 6th Century BC to 2012. Each page tells a different story of an “occult” topic, such… Continue reading Book Review: The Occult Book

Book Review: A Short History of Nearly Everything

I haven’t read a Bill Bryson book in a really long time, so when I came across one of his in a secondhand hand shop I knew I had to get it. A Short History of Nearly Everything is very different from Bryson’s usual work, as he tends to primarily write travel novels. What’s different… Continue reading Book Review: A Short History of Nearly Everything

Book Review: The True Lives of My Chemical Romance

Today marks 6 years since my favourite band broke up, and it both feels like yesterday and a lifetime ago, and I feel very old that I was 16 at the time and now I’m nearly 23! I felt a good way to pay tribute to them would be to review the biography by Tom… Continue reading Book Review: The True Lives of My Chemical Romance

Who knew that Tim Burton wrote a poetry/prose book? I sure didn’t! I only found out about this beauty at a Halloween themed poetry event, and after hearing a few passages I just had to get my hands on the Melancholy Death of Oyster Boy. What is The Melancholy Death of Oyster Boy: The Melancholy… Continue reading Book Review: The Melancholy Death of Oyster Boy
