SUNFLOWERS IN FEBRUARY by Phyllida Shrimpton

February 14, 2018

Book cover & rating - SUNFLOWERS IN FEBRUARY by Phyllida ShrimptonSunflowers in February is at its core a morbid book. Lily was in a car accident and woke up dead. Death is never an easy topic to face. What comes after death though, is a question I’m sure many of us do wonder about. Sunflowers in February grappled with exactly that, as Lily was in limbo, unable to move on.

EVERLESS by Sara Holland

January 5, 2018

Book cover & rating - EVERLESS by Sara Holland

Premise-wise, Everless was one of the most original books I’ve read in a long time. It was very intriguing, to say the least. It presented a world where life and blood are currency. I loved this idea and really enjoyed how it was integrated into the story. It was ruthless. I think the details were very well thought-out, especially when it came to how the rich exploited the poor. I also liked the legends that were incorporated and how they pulsed through the lives of the characters.
