Fagin’s Boy by Christina E. Pilz

I’ve had this book sitting on my Kindle for years now (I actually bought it in 2017 – yikes!) and meant to buy the rest of the series but for some reason or another didn’t get round to it until about a week ago.

Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe

Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe by Benjamin Alire Sáenz is a thing of beauty. Its very simplicity is the book’s greatest strength. I had heard many great things about this book but had put buying it off because the ebook was quite expensive. Eventually though I just had to cave in and buy it and I am very glad that I did. From the very first […]
