Okay so some of you may have read my end of year post and know this already but in case you didn’t, here’s what’s up: I’m cutting down on the amount of books I’m reading and reviewing this year to concentrate more on that other thing I’m obsessed with, writing.


In case you didn’t know I am addicted to reading and I get around 6-7 hours a week on the commute to work to indulge in this obsession so I will still get through a ton of books in 2014, but I’ll only be making time to review around 30 of them. What this means: I’ll still be rating every book I’ve read through Goodreads but will only be reviewing selected books. Just to keep things interesting, I’ll be opening up voting every quarter so that the readers of this blog can see the list of books I’ve read over those three months and choose one they want to see me review. The first vote will open on 1st April for the books I’ve read January-March. I’ll then review the book with the most votes!



For those of you just can’t wait to find out my first three reviews for 2014 will be for these books:




‘Even White Trash Zombies Get The Blues’ by Diana Rowland





Even White Trash Zombies Get the Blues



Urban Fantasy with a snarky narrator.

Second book in the series – this has been out for a while and there are currently three books out, though sadly it’s not available on Kindle.




'The Tribe of Ishmael’ by Heather Heffner





The Tribe of Ishmael



Fantasy set in Hell: There are no heroes, only villains.

First book in the series – this is the exciting brand new release from the author of the Changeling Sisters urban fantasy series.




‘The Stage’ by Rick Soper

Fast-paced thriller revolving around a concert.

Third book in the trilogy – the suspenseful finale to the Rock trilogy is coming out soon and will be reviewed shortly after its release.



The first review will be posted next week!



Attention Authors:

Although I no longer have time to take on any new review requests, I will be happy to share the news when your books are on special offer. If you tweet or email me when your books are on sale or free offer I will spread the word. If it’s on free offer and looks like something I would enjoy I may also download it to read and rate on Goodreads.
