About

 

Welcome to Paper Pages and on my journey to go from Law Graduate to Literary Agent. What made me decided to do that? A book – obviously. It’s not easy to become one guys mainly because a. it’s very hard but not impossible and b. because sometimes self-doubt kicks in. Like what makes me think I’m good enough to help struggling authors published their book? However, I’m not going to live with what ifs so it’s time to roll up my sleeved and start talking. My long-term goal is to re-locate to New York – frankly I feel as if I’ve outgrown England and the limited opportunities’ it has.

Now my law degree didn’t completely go to waste. One thing that really came into handy: Studying international law rights, proof-reading law journals and of course – writing. Some boring but all very necessary for becoming a literary agent. It’s on days like this I thank my lucky stars that I can do these tasks with ease.

So, what made me fall in love with a bunch of paper that has words written all over them ranging from short and snappy to long and poetic? Well, everyone says the same cliché answer when asked; ‘it’s to escape from reality’ but for me It’s more about getting hope. There are a lot of characters out there that I can relate to and I’m sure you can to so I guess for me it’s about finding solace in the unknown. Now, if you asked me what made me want to become a Literary Agent it would be mainly because I love PR between books, their authors and publishing houses but also because the first time I read a badly written fiction rom-com, I took out time to sticky note everything that was wrong alongside how it could be improved to become a good novel to a great one. So, there it is! A bad book made me want to get into the profession.

At this page you can find the most hyped-up book reviews from the steady slow-burn vanillas to the captivating dark romances. My style is very ‘talkative’ whilst still being informative and I’m currently trying to land an Editorial Role at my favourite publishers; Simon & Schuster, Harper Fiction and Little Brown Group. DO NOT except be to recite the blurb of a book – hate those kind of reviews, not here for it.

Let’s read some Paper Pages together and make my dreams come true.

P.S. I do not read non-fiction and if I did it’s probably out of compulsion rather than entertainment. As a book devotee, I am a very inquisitive reader unless it comes to facts. That is when I – respectfully – sign out.

Bad Little Bride – Meagan Brandy

  (5/5 stars. The MMC is called Enzo. Exactly) You know, I’ve read about a couple of men called Enzo throughout my time, but none has hit the spot just like Enzo Fikile. Oh. My. God. Meagan didn’t enter 2025 to joke around. She came to serve, and serve she did. This is book number 2 in the Girls of Greyson series. The one prior is Tempting Little Thief , starring Bastian Bishop and Rocklin Revenaw, aka Boston Revenaw’s twin sister, AKA Enzo’s wife! Did we forget about Enzo? We can never do such a crime. Now, we don’t lie on this page, and I’m not going to start today. Unless my poor eyesight read something wrong – highly likely – I was under the misconception that this was a fantasy book. I don’t read stories set in fantasy worlds where wings, fangs, and, most importantly, weird bodily fluids other than blood and something else are explored. I opened this book with one eye, and that eye stayed closed until chapter 2. Then I was all in on Enzo and Boston’s glory. The story st...

God of War - Rina Kent

  (A full 5/5 with no spaces in between) Dark romance authors - please take notes because this is how it's done. At this point, I think there is something morally grey with me because why on earth do I find all red flags on a man green and attractive? Well then Mr. Eli King. You certainly put me into my place. Confession time – this is not my first experience with Rina Kent. I actually purchased the Deception Trilogy. I decided not to read them for a very stupid reason. The number of pages. There were like only scraping 200 and I am not about the short book life. Unless it’s bad – then please be my guest. The less you write, the less I have to suffer. However, now I’m thinking on going back to read it because God of War was that good. I’ve also purchased Blood of My Monster but I won’t be revisiting that. The whole concept is just to long for my liking. These are the time I enjoy Book-Tok. This is from the Legacy of Gods series landing on #6. There are also times– rare ones –...

Twisted Lies - Ana Huang

  (The MMC is called Christian, you tell me the rating) Christian Harper and Stella Alonso aka butterfly. This had that thriller element to it which I so needed. A story featuring stalkers, thriller, betrayal, and love. Spice too, if you’re interested… We have a billionaire tech-genius with an aspiring designer and fashion blogger. It doesn’t get much more gold than that. Remember Harper Security? Well, there’s a whole book on it now. Stella works for a fashion magazine and gets fired from it after attending an event. That event was for Delamonte, whose brand she becomes the face of. Christian Harper owns the apartment complex where Stella and Jules live. In Twisted Hate we see how they basically get it for free because the rent isn’t even rent, especially for a place like that. The only reason he drops it is for Stella, and we find out why later. Well, once Jules leaves to live with Josh, he lets Stella stay at reduced rent on the condition that she waters his plants. This ...
