Okay, this is the audiobook I finished over the weekend. I really enjoyed it and I have heard nobody talking about it, so I thought I would give it a review. I will start this by saying that this is the first book I have read by this author, and I am a big fan [...]

Book review: Little bones, N.V. Peacock
I am going to start this off with the big disclaimer! I am using Dragon dictation and have only ever listened to the audiobook, so I am probably going to make a hash of the names! I am probably going to skip some names to avoid this, but there are a couple that I will [...]
Book review: Storm front by Jim Butcher
In this book we follow around a man called Harry Dresden. What makes him stand out from everybody else? Well, he is a wizard, and he makes no secret about it. In fact, he has an advert in the papers under professional wizard, and he is the only one. He will not do parties or [...]
Review: the cyborg tinkerer – Meg LaTorre
I follow a YouTube channel called iWriterly, which is hosted by Meg LaTorre. This year she produced her debut novel called the cyborg tinkerer. Because I follow that channel and was interested in reading her work, I invested in the novel. The other reason I read it was because my interest in steam punk, so [...]
Review: Born in fire – K.F.Breene
The cover description of this book is: Supernatural Bounty Hunter isn’t the sort of thing you see on LinkedIn. But with a rare type of magic like mine, I don’t have many options. So dangerous or not, the job is mine. And it was going fine, until an old as sin vampire stole my mark, [...]

The umbrella Academy season two on Netflix, a review
The second part of the umbrella Academy on Netflix was very good, although from an adaption point of view it didn’t really follow the story. However, it is in keeping with the characters and the backstory they had created. (You need to remember that the comic is very short and does not really contain all [...]
The umbrella Academy (series 1) the TV show on Netflix
Okay, I will do a review of this using this style of the YouTube channel lost in adaptation. This channel highlights the differences between a TV show or film and its source material. Here, the source material is a comic book written by Gerard Way and illustrated by Gabrielle Ba. I think because it is [...]
Book review – The eyes of darkness by Dean Koontz
Well, this book was written in 1981 so it is taking me quite a long time to get round to reading it! It is very good, if freaky talking about a virus is from Wuhan (which, if you didn't know by now, is in China!) it is not like our current situation because it was [...]
