Book Review | The Girl Of Ink And Stars by Kiran Millwood Hargrave

I picked up 'The Girl Of Ink And Stars' in the bookshop without even knowing what it was. I was instantly drawn to it as the physical book itself is just absolutely beautiful from the cover to mapped end-pages to the illustrated borders of every page inside. Side-note – I'm so glad to have a British copy of this book, the American name is different for some reason and 'The Cartographer's Daughter' sounds nowhere near as magical. Also the book design is completely different too and way less pretty IMO.

Book Review | A Stolen Kiss

*I was given a free ARC of A Stolen Kiss provided by Netgalley and Swanifide Publishing in exchange for my honest review.*

This book is a retelling of the classic fairy-tale, the Swan Princess. We follow the quest of four teenagers, a stable boy, a ladies maid and two royals, as they travel through kingdoms, forest and swamp in search for an evil sorceress. One of them has been cursed and only the one who cast it can lift it.
