The Wolf Den | ELODIE. HARPER

A truly captivating and empowering story of the women long forgotten in pompeii. I couldn't put this book down for a second, I loved Amara's character and her ambition. This book also manages to tug at the heartstrings so be prepared! Diving straight into the sequel!

Heartbreaking but also heartwarming. These books will always have a place with me, each one has 4 stories following 4 different people going to the cafe to travel in time and honestly I've cried at every story.

My Cousin Rachel (Revised) | Daphne Du Maurier

While I enjoyed this book, it definitely did not have the charm or the atmosphere that I adored in Rebecca.

Just like Rebecca, I definitely enjoyed the second half alot more than the first but I feel like this one fell a bit short. While it is very interesting and intriguing at times, I felt the ending fell a bit flat.

I will admit that Daphne du Maurier definitely has a way with words and I can appreciate her writing even.

Very reminiscent of The Night Circus which I absolutely adored. For the first 100 pages I wasn't really sure if I was going yo enjoy it and it seemed like it was very slow going.

However towards the end I really started to enjoy it and get into the story and all the twists and turns it started to have. Though at the end it did disappoint a little with how everything was resolved.

This book was amazing. The selling point for me was definitely the characters, I adore Lila, she's definitely a new favourite character and I can't wait to delve more into this world with her.

A truly brilliant piece of writing. Just like The Poppy War by R F Kuang, this fantasy gave me a refreshing experience of the genre.

I also appreciated that the story doesn't solely focus on our main character but also other characters with stories that I loved and want to see more of.
