Bookish Babbles & Reviews
This is probably the most challenging review I've ever had to write because I have so much to say about A Drowned Kingdom and oh so many notes. I picked this book up after hearing about it through SPFBO and being recommended by a couple of friends. 'A Drowned Kingdom' is about great a great civilisation, with advanced weaponry and engineering, that gets swallowed by the ocean and the story of the outcast survivors?! I couldn't not read it. I named my daughter Atlantis after all!!
This was a super quick, beautiful, wholesome and heartwarming fantasy read, for adults and middle grade alike.
A grumpy retired war hero (dragon) living a pretty solitary and routine life. A small stray Hooman that arrives at his boulder. A quest for applesauce and an unlikely friendship that will give you all of the feels.
Happy New Year Friends!! I can't believe we are nearly mid-month of January already!!! Where has the time gone? ... Well at home social distancing mostly, and reading.

What in the f*ck did I just read?!
Ok, I thought I knew what I was going to get with this one. I even read a couple of reviews, which is not like me at all. I'm new to this genre so I wanted to be prepared.
I WAS NOT PREPARED!!!
โฃThicker than Water by Becca Seymour is a fast paced, MUST READ queer paranormal shifter romance.
An outcast shifter agent. A ๐ฟ๐ถ๐ฝ-๐๐ต๐ถ๐-๐ฎ๐ป๐ฑ-๐ฏ๐๐๐ kind of guy more than a follow procedure guy. Gets seconded to a secret unit. Crazy sexy chemistry with his boss. Amazing relationships and banter. This has been my favourite queer romance of the year so far. I got all the feels.
