Letterbox Love is a way to give
all of the books I receive for review some exposure. Summaries are taken from
the cover, or Amazon/NetGalley/Goodreads in the case of e-books, unless
otherwise stated.
False Hearts, Laura
Lam (e-proof)
One
night Tila stumbles home, terrified and covered in blood. She's arrested for
murder, the first by a civilian in a decade. The San Francisco police suspect
involvement with Zeal, a powerful drug, and offer her twin sister Taema a
chilling deal. Taema must assume Tila’s identity and gather information – then
if she brings down the drug syndicate, the police may let her sister live. But
Taema’s investigation raises ghosts from the twins’ past.
The
sisters were raised in a cult, which banned modern medicine. But as conjoined
twins, they needed surgery to divide their shared heart – and escaped. Taema
discovers Tila was moulded by the cult and that it's linked to the city’s
underground. Once unable to keep secrets, the sisters will discover the true
cost of lives.
I love Laura Lam’s Micah Gray series so I’m so looking
forward to this! Thanks NetGalley and Tor!
The Loneliness of Distant Beings,
Kate Ling (e-proof)
It
is that quick, that strong, that beautiful. And it is also totally impossible.
Even
though she knows it’s impossible, Seren longs to have the sunshine on her skin.
It’s something she feels she needs to stay sane. But when you’re hurtling
through space at thousands of kilometres an hour, sometimes you have to accept
there are things you cannot change.
Except
that the arrival of Dom in her life changes everything in ways she can barely
comprehend. He becomes the sun for her, and she can't help but stay in his
orbit. To lose him would be like losing herself.
In
the dark, can a heart still hope?
I’ve been hankering after this
ever since talking to Kate during #ukyachat and creepering on her book. Thanks
Little Brown and NetGalley!
The Winner’s Kiss, Marie
Rutkoski (e-proof)
Following
the intrigue and danger of The
Winner’s Curse and the revolution and
romance of The Winner’s Crime,
Kestrel finds herself in the tundra’s mines and Arin has sailed home. The
empire seems unstoppable.
Lies
will come undone, and Kestrel and Arin will learn just how much their crimes
will cost them in this third and final instalment in the heart-stopping Winners trilogy.
One of my most anticipated books
of the year! Thanks Bloomsbury and NetGalley!
Paper Butterflies, Lisa
Heathfield (proof)
My
dad didn’t see, or maybe he just didn’t want to.
June’s
life at home with her stepmother and stepsister is a dark one – and a secret
one. Not even her dad knows the truth. She's trapped like a butterfly in a net.
But
then June meets Blister. In him, she finds a glimmer of hope that perhaps she
can find a way to fly far, far away.
Because
every creature in this world deserves their freedom. But what price?
I am SO looking forward to this!
And I’m quoted in the proof! Thanks Electric Monkey!
