🇬🇧 bookish reviews 🇳🇱
Rosaria Munda has made even more characters for me to care deeply about. Great. Like I didn’t have enough feels and fear for my old ones. Honestly, it is the theme of this book: MORE. The world is a lot bigger, and we get a POV inside Julia’s society. And there’s so much going on,… Continue reading Flamefall – Rosaria Munda
I was really excited to read the sequel to To Dwell Among Cedars, as I loved Lukio! He is a troubled soul throughout the first book, but he tries so hard to keep from hurting, I can’t help but love him. And now we have am entire sequel about him! And Soshana, who made a brief… Continue reading Between The Wild Branches – Connilyn Cossette
Rikkert houdt ons een spiegel voor met een harde waarheid. Met rake woorden weet hij verborgen motieven naar boven te brengen, van macht, schaamte, geldzucht (alles willen kopen) en apathie richting de lijdende medemens. Hoe we ziende blind zijn voor de werkelijkheid en ons graag af laten leiden met zaken die er niet toe doen. … Continue reading Kleine vergezichten – Rikkert Zuiderveld
Ok I need to write a coherent review but to be honest I’m just fangirling a lot. This book needs to be a hype. I’ll start off with a list of why’s: 21st century dragon slayers are BADASSAnd dragons are badass too though I also want to cuddle them. There is this thing called a… Continue reading Fire With Fire – Destiny Soria
To Find Her Place by Susan Anne Mason is the second book in the Redemption’s Light series, but it is perfect as a standalone (there is a non spoiler cameo from the main character of the previous book, but that’s it). I loved book 1, but if I’m honest, I loved this book even more! It’s… Continue reading To Find Her Place – Susan Anne Mason
Dusk’s Darkest Shores takes place in a quiet town, where Mary, an introverted spinster, assists her father who is a doctor. She’s very good with medicine, but mostly with kindness.

I was really hoping that the third book in the Glass Alliance series would meet my high expectations, since the first two books blew me away. And I can tell you: me expectations were exceeded. So much! I can proudly present to you: my new favorite series EVER. This is an extreme honor, as this… Continue reading Southern Sun, Northern Star – Joanna Hathaway

A Tapestry of Light is the second novel of Kimberly Duffy and I am glad to say my prediction that she will be the next big name in Christian Fiction is still standing strong. But first, let me tell you a bit what it is about. The story starts in India, where Ottilie lives with… Continue reading A Tapestry of Light – Kimberly Duffy
I would classify The Art of Saving the World as urban scifi with a pince of fantasy. Honestly, it defines genres because it’s so unique! But before I go into that, let me tell you a bit what it’s about. When Hazel Stanczak was born, a giant rift appeared beside her house. And if she… Continue reading The Art of Saving the World – Corinne Duyvis
Toen ik de sterkste was van Jason Reynolds heeft best wel een indruk op me achtergelaten. Ik vind zijn schrijfstijl heel mooi, heel rauw maar toch weer met een poëtisch randje, al lijkt dat eigenlijk een tegenstelling. Heel nuchter vertelt hij de feiten over een zwarte wijk waar Ali en zijn vrienden/buren Noodles en Needles… Continue reading Toen ik de sterkste was – Jason Reynolds
The Prince of Spies by Elizabeth Camden is the third and last book in the Hope and Glory series. I do recommend reading the earlier books in this series, as Luke, the main character, has been in them quite often. I suppose it gets covered in short in the book itself, but you’ll miss a… Continue reading The Prince of Spies (Hope & Glory 3) – Elizabeth Camden
Dreams of Savannah by Roseanna M. White takes place during the Civil War in Savannah, aka the South. That sure made a quite interesting point of view, as Roseanna managed to describe how complicated it actually was, instead of good versus bad. Oh now I spoiled what I liked most about this book lol! LAYERS.… Continue reading Dreams of Savannah – Roseanna M. White
I don’t know how she does it, but with every book Connilyn Cossette manages to draw you into the world of Old Testament Israel, and it’s like you’re actually transported there and left my living room behind. Ok I think I partly know how she does it and that is an impressive amount of research,… Continue reading To Dwell Among Cedars – Connilyn Cossette
This book. It’s original and heartwarming and FLUFFY. Yes I just called a book fluffy. This is a book you need to read when you’re at your lowest. When you’re insecure or afraid or when the world is overwhelming. This book is for the misfits and the ones that feel like they won’t belong. Above… Continue reading The House in the Cerulean Sea – T.J. Klune
Ok raise your hands if you desperately need a sequel to Beauty and the Beast? Yup I think that’s almost everyone. And Emma Theriault wrote it! Make place on those tbr’s because this is a book that a lot of readers will love, especially if you’re actually YA in age, and I think this book… Continue reading Rebel Rose – Emma Theriault
