Page Count: 121 Rating: 4/5 REVIEW The book was easy to read and broken up into digestible chunks. It didn’t focus too much on the science but mentioned enough to put things into perspective. The tips were things that you could implement quite easily and it had different options depending on budget and location. ItContinue reading “Positively Green by Sarah LeBrecque”

The Garden Of Time by JG Ballard
Page Count: 9 Rating: 5/5 REVIEW It was only nine pages long but it deserved a review. The prose was beautiful and, even though short, he still managed to create a build up of events to slowly reveal a haunting conclusion. The incremental progression and then a swift twist of what was truly being heldContinue reading “The Garden Of Time by JG Ballard”
Dungeon Academy: No Humans Allowed by Madeleine Roux
Page Count: 204 Rating: 5/5 REVIEW I accidentally read the second in the series before this one so I did know some of the plot points before reading it. but this did not detract from my enjoyment of the story. I enjoyed finding out how Zelli met her friends and I loved the adventure thatContinue reading “Dungeon Academy: No Humans Allowed by Madeleine Roux”
Meetings with Moths by Katty Baird
Page Count: 241 Rating: 4/5 REVIEW It was enjoyable read of mostly anecdotes about the author’s adventures discovering and identifying moths, allowing for a quirky entry level introduction to the world of mothing and I preferred the lightness but still informative tone about a creature that is often side-lined or even hated but as someoneContinue reading “Meetings with Moths by Katty Baird”
The Dragon’s Eye (Dragonology) by Dugald A Steer
Page Count: 281 Rating: 4/5 REVIEW I haven’t read the large interactive Dragonology book that this story uses as its basis, but it was a fun and cute children’s story about dragons and I thoroughly enjoyed it.
Until August by Gabriel Garcia Marquez
Page Count: 110 Rating: 4/5 REVIEW It is an interesting little book and one that is very poetic. It is short and sweet being only 110 pages but it was very beautiful. I had never read a book by Marquez before as they’ve never sounded like a genre I would enjoy but I might considerContinue reading “Until August by Gabriel Garcia Marquez”
The Year in Space by The Supermassive Podcast
Page Count: 162 Rating: 4/5 REVIEW It went into a decent amount of detail an each topic as it was never meant as a deep dive book, however it was a bit too light for me simply as I’m used to longer science books and so I wish it was a bit longer and inContinue reading “The Year in Space by The Supermassive Podcast”
Femina by Janina Ramirez
Page Count: 333 Rating: 5/5 REVIEW I really enjoyed the view of women throughout history and how they have been misinterpreted by later years of misogyny and I am happy that we now, having the technology and scrutiny of old biases, can put them back into the histories that they played a part in andContinue reading “Femina by Janina Ramirez”
What if we all stopped pretending? by Jonathan Franzen
Page Count: 41 Rating: 4.5/5 REVIEW The author is not a scientist but he is a realist who knows people. He states the point that, though we should absolutely try and stop or at least lessen climate change, in the (large) chance that it will still happen, we need to focus on other things weContinue reading “What if we all stopped pretending? by Jonathan Franzen”
Gender Euphoria, edited by Laura Kate Dale
Page Count: 286 Rating: 5/5 REVIEW A wonderful collection of memoirs about some of the positive aspects of trans lives and queerness which needs to have more of a highlight alongside the struggles that they face. It lets trans people know that there is hope for them and lets non-trans (cis) people know that theyContinue reading “Gender Euphoria, edited by Laura Kate Dale”
