Hello, welcome to my blog! This blog was created for purpose of reviewing books I have read. Most will be recent reads, but once a week I will have an 'Old Favourites' post, in which I will review a book I've known and loved for a long time. And I also seem to be the only UK book blogger around, which is quite exciting. Hopefully I can provide an alternative outlook on literature to my fellows in the rest of the world and maybe introduce everyone to some of the exciting things happening in the world of British/European literature!
This blog was named after the Victor Hugo quote: "To learn to read is to light a fire; every syllable that is spelled out is a spark." Well, I read so much that there must be a veritable inferno going on in my head! So I thought that I would offer others the chance to feed their own fires with new and exciting syllables from books they may never have heard of.
I hope you enjoy reading my blog and that I can help you to find something new and exciting to read. I would just like to point out that everything posted on here (unless otherwise stated) is my opinion. Although I like to think that I'm always right about everything, sometimes I'm not. Just because I don't love a book, it doesn't mean it isn't the perfect read for you. Equally if I enthuse about a book it is entirely possible that you might hate it. I'm truly sorry if that is the case but please don't come back and tell me off for promoting a book you hate - the beautiful thing about opinion is that it differs, and maybe you'll like something else I suggest.
So - please dive straight in! Comments make me happy and if you have any questions do not hesitate to email me at sparkingsyllables @ gmail.com (spaces removed of course!) Thanks for visiting and I would love to see you again soon!
