WRITER & LECTURER
As we’re approaching the end of 2016, I thought I’d share some of the best books I’ve read this year. I’ve read over 175 books, and these are the cream of the crop!
Tale-within-a-tale graphic novel set in pre-history Arctic
Social and gender politics thousands of years in the future

I completely loved The Long Way to a Small Angry Planet. In fact, I love any book with a spaceship setting which is why I’m so excited about your next novel! 😀 Have you read The Loneliness of Distant Beings? It’s number one on my list of faves this year. Across The Universe is one of my favourite trilogies too.

Have you read the sequel yet? I’m so excited to start it!
I have a proof of Distant Beings, I need to check it out! It looks really good. Is it sad?
I really hope you like LONELIEST then! 😀

I haven’t but I can’t wait to! I was surprised by how much I loved it considering how little actually happens in it. The characters and setting are just so well done they carry themselves.
It does have some sad moments but its overall not too sad I would highly recommend reading it. Brilliant stuff.
I’m sure I will love it, I already love the cover. Can’t wait 😀
