This book is a small masterpiece, gorgeous on the outside and beautiful inside, too! This is definitely my fave read of 2018 so far and I highly recommend this book to everyone who loves fairy tales, young and old.

Of Magic and Memory by Cristy Zinn
4.0
Oh my goodness, this is such a beautiful story!
OMAM is a story about Ava, a girl on the verge of womanhood, who suddenly has to deal with her mother dying unexpectedly. Not only does she come to the realisation that she has magic of her own, but she also discovers that her mother, Ginger, lived an entirely hidden, second life.
Cristy has created such a beautiful world for this story; it is vivid and vibrant and draws you right in. The places seem familiar and intimate, reminding us of somewhere we've actually been and makes us want to go back again, like you can catch a bus and go for a visit.

The Cruel Prince by Holly Black

I didn't hate it; yet again, I didn't love it... Predictable and boring!
The Colour of Bee Larkham’s Murder by Sarah J. Harris
5.0
Extremely well written!
I'm not usually a fan of thrillers / mysteries but this book was really good! I feel like I've gained a little more insight into an autistic mind and I can now understand my autistic nephew a little better!
Review to follow.
