WELCOME!
At Forests and Fiction, I write about books (and other things) that I love
In 2021 I began reading for pleasure again for the first time in a decade. What started as a passive hobby is now a full-fledged passion.
Reading is a wonderful release for me that opens so many worlds and possibilities. Forests and Fiction serves as a place to celebrate this passion alongside the other things that bring joy in my life as well.

Book Review: Sunbringer by Hannah Kaner
The Fallen Gods trilogy by Hannah Kaner is becoming a fast favourite for me. The first book I picked up on a bit of a whim and ended up adoring, and this second instalment built nicely on that premise. This one felt a little broodier and a little darker, and it also took some genuinely…

Book Review: Project Hail Mary by Andy Weir
I’ve been hearing good things about Andy Weir and his writing for years. While I hadn’t read anything by him yet, I have watched The Martian at least five times and as a result, was fairly confident I was going to enjoy his writing. I’m happy to report that my predictions were correct.
