Amy J Hamilton Introduces Radish Fiction

Radish what now? I’d never heard of it before either. What, you have? Well, go and read my books then.

For the rest of you, here’s the background.

Radish Fiction is a free app containing serialised fiction in bite-sized chunks or episodes. (Like radishes, get it? Bite-sized.) It’s aimed at those who like to read a bit at a time. Which, to be fair is me. We’re all busy, but we can generally manage ten minutes of reading here and there.

 

The first three episodes of any book will always be...

Let’s Talk About The Raven Cycle

Hi guys, today I’m going to be talking about a series that I’ve just finished reading- The Raven Cycle by Maggie Stiefvater. To be honest I’m probably one of the few people that hasn’t gotten around to it yet, so big thanks to my sister for forcing the pile of books into my hands and demanding that I read them. I didn’t know much about them except her telling me “it’s about some teenagers looking for a Welsh king” and that I had to read them because I like character-driven stories.
