​Here are some little micro reviews of some books I read recently, covering:
​

• ​A lovely manuscript by a friend (Lyndall Clipstone)
• Rosemarked by Livia Blackburne
• Lord of the Shadows by Cassandra Clare
• The Astonishing Colour of After by Emily X.R Pan
• Mirage by Somaiya Daud

​
Welcome to my monthly update!
Here I will waffle on for a short time about what I’ve been up to over the past month in terms of my writing progress, reading and a bit of general life stuff too.
 
So here we go :)

I am lucky enough now to not only have a YA debut novel coming out soon with Wakefield Press, but to have also secured a lovely literary agent, who is representing my other work.

This is a dream come true for me, and, if you have read my very first post in this series (which can be found HERE), you will also know it has been a long loooooong time coming.

In this post, I talk a bit about how I started working with an agent.

Cool.

but nothing is feeling right
I drink but I choke
I love but I don't

I was just trying to be cool
I was just trying to be like you

I've been shouting it from the rooftops, so it's possible everybody already knows that my debut YA novel, Making Friends with Alice Dyson, is due to be released in March 2019.

Behind the scenes a lot has been going into the making of this novel, from rough manuscript to, very soon, actual published book! The whole thing has been such a strange but amazing experience.

Today I am SUPER pleased to share that my book is now up on Goodreads, so if you feel like it you can add it to your tbr list!

Also, read on for my first time ever sharing the novel's blurb!

Oh my gosh, exciting and also scary!​​​
