Spellfire by Agatha Wilson

  Hey ForeverBookers, I’ve just finished  “Spellfire”  by Agatha Willow and I really enjoyed it!  “Spellfire”  tells the story of a young siren called Bryn who’s an author at the beginning of the novel. She went to a witch school, however because she didn’t get on with her mother and hated being alone as she was growing up other than being at Grimoire Academy. She gets contacted by the academy before the novel starts. At the beginning of  “Spellfire,”  Brynn has just arrived at Grimoire Academy to sort through her late, beloved teacher, Professor Herringbone’s book collection. What she doesn’t realise is that she will find a LOT more than she bargained for at the school; friendships, camaraderie and perhaps even love?  Always Fully Booked Reading Challenge 2024 - A Sapphic Book - Spellfire’s main story is the love between Brynn and Amelia.    Spoilers Below: “She could do this. She was an adult now. It had been five years. Sure, she’d su...

People Watching by Hannah Bonam Young Review

  Hi ForeverBookers,   How are you all? I hope you’re well!  I’ve got a cold but I’ve just finished  “People Watching”  by Hannah Bonam Young and I bloody well LOVED it!  5 Stars!  “People Watching”  tells the story of Milo, a guy that’s moving to help his brother and sister run their family brewery. He pulls up in front of the town’s shop before he gets to his family’s house where there are many children! At  Welch’s Gas and Grocer,  he meets Mr Welch and his daughter, Prue. He falls for Prue straight away! Like literally straight away. I really enjoyed this story. Yes, it’s instalove to its maximum, I’d say. But I love those sort of stories. The rest of the plot is about Milo and Prue learning to accept one another and Milo helping Prue accept life how it is, through love and sex. Prue’s mother suffers from Alzheimer’s disease. This plays a huge part in the plot. There’s also mention of cancer, although not as big.  I read  “...

Blood Witch (Sweep #3) by Cait Tiernan Review

  Blood Witch review!   Hey ForeverBookers, How are you all doing today? I hope you’re well!  I’ve just finished  “Blood Witch”  by Cait Tiernan, which I freaking loved! It was another reread from when I was a teenager but the Sweep series still holds magic over me, literally as it’s about witches!  4.5 Stars! In  “Blood Witch”  we’re again following our main character Morgan who at the end of The Coven #2, had just trespassed on her boyfriend, Cal’s mom’s secret library. What secrets does Selene hold? We’re also introduced to Cal’s half brother, Hunter in  “Blood Witch”  too. Can he be trusted? Or is he something evil, as Cal suggests. You need to read for yourself but I find these books addictive! Once I start, I don’t really want to stop!  I read  “Blood Witch”  for a few readathons! They were:  Reading Rivalry -  Over At The Frankenstein Place - I consider this where the characters from Rocky Horror finally u...

And Then There Were None by Agatha Christie Review

  Hey ForeverBookers,   It doesn’t feel like any time at all since my last review, but here I am with my next… “And Then There Were None”  by Agatha Christie was surprisingly really captivating! It’s a closed room murder mystery, where 10 unsuspecting people are invited to an island. We start on the train with them in separate cabins not knowing each other, and one is killed every few days or hours in some cases when they get to the island. Who kills them and why, I don’t want to spoil here, but I was captivated by/addicted to the story and I finished it in about 24 hours! 4.5 stars!  (If you don’t want to know who the murderer is don’t read the last pages of the book until you finish)!   I read  “And Then Then Were None”  for a few readathons. They were: Reading Rivalry - Dammit Janet!  - murders on an island certainly make me think of the word “dammit,” and worse… Always Fully Booked Reading Challenge - A locked room mystery -  “And Then Th...

Blood & Steel by Helen Scheuerer (The Legends Of Thezmarr #1) Review

  Hey ForeverBookers,   How are you all? I hope you’re good! I’ve just finished  “Blood & Steel”  by Helen Scheuerer and I ABSOLUTELY LOVED it! It had everything I love and more!  In  “Blood & Steel, ”   we follow our FMC, a 24 year old girl, Thea who wants to become a Warsword warrior in the lands of Thezmarr. Only men are allowed to wield weapons, so they’re the only ones that become Warswords, however. Of course, Thea hates this rule and thinks it’s unfair and sexist, which it is! Why shouldn’t she be able to wield a weapon? She goes on a plight to the king to get permission to train as an apprentice Warsword with our MMC, Wilder Hawthorne. She gets permission from the king and starts training with a group of young men, some of whom she befriends and some of whom she hates. Seb is the main antagonist as well as the demons that slip through the veil. Of course, Wilder is our love interest. He thinks Thea is a pain at first. Does this change t...
