New year, new look…

Something big has happened with The Book Box… I decided it was time for a change. After being away from my blog for so long I felt that it was time for a fresh start, not a full re-brand but a re-vamp. I realise that I’ve been away from blogging for far too long but…

Jadeite’s Journey – Lucinda Stein

Living in a perfect world isn’t as good as it sounds… Firstly I must say that returning to blogging after such a long break has been worth it thanks to this book, however the break has been very good for me. I’ve been able to get myself settled into my new home, start my new…

Guess who’s back…

Blogger break over, ready to start again… Firstly I just wanted to say that having a break from blogging was not due to my lack of interest, I just happened to have a few big life events that came faster than anticipated and therefore I needed to pause my blogging to focus on that. I…

She Will Rise – Calvin Demmer

Five tips to definitely live (or die) by… Following from last week’s short story ‘Spring Outbreak’ we continue down the road of Calvin Demmer’s Dark Celebrations series with yet another spectacular addition ‘She Will Rise’. If reading is an addiction then I must confess to being completely hooked to these short stories, I cannot get…

Cover Reveal – A Wild And Unremarkable Thing

You can judge a book by the cover (just this once)… This is actually the first time I’ve been involved with a cover reveal and I must admit that I’m glad that A Wild And Unremarkable Thing is my first (hopefully not my last)! It is always nice to show the beauty of books and covers…

Spring Outbreak – Calvin Demmer

Never fall asleep at the beach… As you may have known I’ve reviewed Calvin Demmer’s work before, already accustomed to his style of writing I was very eager to read another addition of his Dark Celebration collection. With short stories you never know what you’re going to get and they have to move in a…

Author Interview – Gary Buller

Digging deeper into the lives and career of authors… As promised I’ve done another author interview to highlight and give thanks to the lovely authors that gave me the support and encouragement I needed for my blog to flourish and grow. Hopefully this will give some very well deserved recognition to Gary Buller, an author…

The Solitary Path Of Courage – M. B. Tosi

You can be taught how to be ladylike, but courage is always within… This book is actually the fifth in ‘The Indian Path Series’ so I was a little apprehensive that I wouldn’t know what is going on straight away, however from doing some research each book has its own standalone story that you can…

Hell Will Rise – Skyla Murphy

Always be one step ahead when dealing with the Mafia… This is the first book I’ve read that had a Mafia theme and quite honestly I was intrigued to see how much my innocence to this theme would filter down into the book and impact my reading experience. It is safe to say I was…

Joyful Trouble – Patricia Furstenberg

What a joy this book is… This book is actually the first ‘children’ book I’ve reviewed and I got worried that being in my early 20’s I wouldn’t be able to connect with it. How wrong I was! This book brings so much joy (pun intended) that I would highly recommend to anyone no matter…
