2022 has been a crazy year, but it’s also been full of some incredible books, which I’m so grateful for! I hope 2023 will bring just as many amazing stories into my life, but first, let’s look back at the last 12 months and which literary gems made my top 5!

Introduction: Another day another review. Following on from my review of Babel, I will be reviewing The Poppy War, also by R.F. Kuang- I have a bit of an obsession at the moment!

I picked up the Tiktok Sensation after, surprise surprise, seeing it toted on Tiktok as the Historical Fantasy Debut of the year. This book was everywhere on social media, and after I found out the trilogy had concluded with the third book The Burning God, and none of the bloggers were threatening to string up the author by her ears, I decided to give it a go.
