I'm Holly, an enthusiastic reader who wants to share her thoughts on books with you! So if you are reading this it means that you have come across my blog, The Bookzy Shelf. Welcome!

Favourite Authors 
I love fantasy and I believe these two authors write fantasy better than any other author (my opinion, don't hate) which are, Sarah J. Maas and Cassandra Clare! Their writing is amazing which makes reading their books so quick. 

Hobbies
Reading, Tennis (I'm no where near being sporty but do enjoy this), cooking, Netflix (if you have Netflix than you have at least binged watched at least one show), shopping, hanging out with friends. 

What I want to do when I'm older
If anyone has ever asked me this question in the past, they know that I have no clue because I change it all the time. I do though want to travel around Europe with my best friend and do a mission trip overseas. I would tell you what I currently want to do but I will probably change it next week so there's no point. 

Comfort Food 
Honestly anything that is unhealthy for me and is available in the cupboard (I promise this doesn't happen everyday).

Why I started this blog?
I'm not really sure why I started this blog to be honest. I thought it would be fun project and I enjoy telling people what I thought about books I have read. Why not write my thoughts down?

I don't review every book I read, to see all the books I read check out my Goodreads

The Young Elites by Marie Lu

“Be true to yourself. But that's something everyone says and no one means. No one wants you to be yourself. They want you to be the version of yourself that they like.”  Synopsis I am tired of being used, hurt, and cast aside. Adelina Amouteru is a survivor of the blood fever.  A decade ago, the deadly illness swept through her nation. Most of the infected perished, while many of the children who survived were left with strange markings. Adelina’s black hair turned silver, her lashes went pale, and now she has only a jagged scar where her left eye once was. Her cruel father believes she is a malfetto, an abomination, ruining their family’s good name and standing in the way of their fortune. But some of the fever’s survivors are rumored to possess more than just scars—they are believed to have mysterious and powerful gifts, and though their identities remain secret, they have come to be called the Young Elites. Teren Santoro works for the king.  As Leader of the Inquisition

Things I'd Rather Do Than Die by Christine Hurley Deriso

*Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for providing me with an advanced copy in exchange for an honest review* Synopsis When Jade Fulton and Ethan Garrett, the two most mismatched seniors at Walt Whitman High School, find themselves locked in an aerobics room overnight, their confinement forces them to push past the labels they’ve given each other. Amid hours of arguing, philosophizing, and silly game-playing, Ethan and Jade learn there’s a lot more to the other person than meets the eye.  But after their night in confinement, they return to their comfort zones—Ethan’s football prowess and longstanding romance with the school beauty, and Jade’s cerebral pursuits and close friendship with the quirky Gia. Still, they find themselves inexorably pulled back to the connection they formed that night, a bond they increasingly value as Jade struggles with her dad’s cancer diagnosis and Ethan tries to distance himself from his alcoholic father. As tensions rise for both teens at

Three Dark Crowns by Kendare Blake

“Three dark queens Are born in a glen, Sweet little triplets Will never be friends Three dark sisters All fair to be seen, Two to devour And one to be Queen” Synopsis When kingdom come, there will be one. In every generation on the island of Fennbirn, a set of triplets is born—three queens, all equal heirs to the crown and each possessor of a coveted magic. Mirabella is a fierce elemental, able to spark hungry flames or vicious storms at the snap of her fingers. Katharine is a poisoner, one who can ingest the deadliest poisons without so much as a stomachache. Arsinoe, a naturalist, is said to have the ability to bloom the reddest rose and control the fiercest of lions. But becoming the Queen Crowned isn’t solely a matter of royal birth. Each sister has to fight for it. And it’s not just a game of win or lose…it’s life or death. The night the sisters turn sixteen, the battle begins. The last queen standing gets the crown.    My Rating: ⭐⭐⭐ Ok, now that ending got me hooked
