Hi everyone! I'm so glad to announce something I've been keeping under wraps for a while. I've finally started my own book review blog, Half Past Midnight.
          	
          	As a lover of speculative fiction, this is a space for me to post fantasy and science fiction book reviews. I'm always in for something medieval, historical, mythological, or pure science fiction. Horror and thrillers are good too. Throw in a haunted house, complex interpersonal relationships, fantasy retellings, or grey villains... and you have me hooked :) I'm not a big fan of romance, so you probably won't find a lot of that here.
          	
          	Personally, I tend to focus on plot, characterization, world building and writing style when reading a book, which is what my reviews shall talk about. I try to keep my reviews spoiler free and hopefully, will publish new posts weekly. Full articles are always posted on the main website at www.halfpastmidnight.me, but you can also follow www.instagram.com/halfpastmidnight.blog for weekly updates or subscribe to my newsletter.
          	
          	Love you all loads! Watch this space for something cooler coming your way in the future. And yes, the Amphitrite x Poseidon story is happening :)

@rubyruins I really just wanna say that I can't read any other books - you've raised my expectations so high.

hey queen!! Edwina, Tristan and Crown of Glass hold a very special place in my heart, and having read the book over 3 years ago, I'm still very much in love and think about them regularly. 
          
          i appreciate you more than you'll ever know for creating a universe for me to escape into when i so desperately needed it. <333
          
          anyway, idk if you're still active here, but hope you're doing amazing!!

Dear Ruby/Ellis,
          
          Girl. I can't put my thoughts into words. I can't turn my mind into stone. I can't breathe.
          
          Your books are amazing. They are my comfort. They are my life, the entire reason why I still try to see another day. 
          
          I just wanted to say, you have talent. Artistry. Skill. Your plots are astonishing. Your characters jump off the page. And all the while, everything turns beautifully, like it was planned out centuries before.
          
          Girl, I just wanted to say, you changed my life.
          
          Elaina <3

Hi everyone! It's been a while. I've been a bit busy this past year with my final year work, but there's been quite some writing going on as well. As promised, I've been working on the next part after Queen of Death - the story of Poseidon and his queen, Amphitrite. I've been having a lot of fun writing about mermaids and the deep, dark sea, and I'm so excited to share it with you. More details coming soon ❤
