Hey guys! I'm so excited today to share this guest post from author Katy Cannon, whose new book And Then We Ran publishes this week! I've read and really enjoyed this book (see previous post for a review!) and I'm sure you guys will too! ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ Sometimes it feels like the world runs on coincidence. There are 365 days in a year, and slightly fewer people in my immediate family, and yet we all seem to end up sharing birthdays. My childhood best friend and maid of honour never actually saw me get married, as she gave birth on the morning of my wedding day.

Hello! Here are three mini reviews of some February releases! ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ HEARTLESS by Marissa Meyer Published 9th February, 2017 by Macmillan Children's Books Long before she was the terror of Wonderland—the infamous Queen of Hearts—she was just a girl who wanted to fall in love. In this prequel to Alice in Wonderland , Cath longs to open a bakery, but her family and the king have other ideas. Set in the world of the Looking Glass, it promises to be weird and wonderful and deliver a heartwarming story of forbidden love... But it didn't really, to be honest. After fifty pages, I found myself wondering where the book was going and when it was going to get started. Then fifty pages later, I was still wondering that. I wasn't excited about reading the novel, and I decided to DNF after 150 pages when I realised I just didn't care for the characters or what happened to them.  There's a big fat stench of instalove as well - Cath doesn't know Jest at all bu...
