Book Review: "The Time Traveler's Wife" by Audrey Niffenegger

Warning: Possible spoilers.

I bought The Time Traveler's Wife by Audrey Niffenegger a couple of years ago at a jumble sale for about fifty pence. Having seen a lot of hype over the novel and the film adaptation, I wasn't sure what I expected from it, but I fully expected to find that it had been over-hyped upon finishing it. I'm pleased to say that I was pleasantly surprised.

Book review: "Temeraire: Throne of Jade" by Naomi Novik

Warning: Possible spoilers for both Throne of Jade and Temeraire, the first novel in the series.

I read the first book in the Temeraire series (Temeraire  or His Majesty's Dragon) by Naomi Novik a few years ago, and thought it absolutely fantastic, and I was keen to read more of the series. It was not until relatively recently I was able to do so, but when I picked up Throne of Jade to read I was excited to revisit some of my favourite characters and the world they inhabited.
