Hi everyone! Welcome to Top Ten Tuesday, which is hosted over at  The Broke and The Bookish . This week's topic is Top Ten Books I Feel Differently About After Time Has Passed. 1.  Rivers of London by Ben Aaronovitch I used to love this book so much but now I've just discovered other books I prefer. 2.  Entangled by Cat Clarke I thought this book was amazing when I read it, but it was one of the first contemporaries I'd ever read. 3.  Angel by L.A. Weatherly I briefly went through a fallen angel phase and this was something that I read. 4.  Blue Bloods by Melissa de la Cruz I read a LOT of vampire books and this was one that I thought was so good. 5.  Torn by Cat Clarke At first when I read this book I thought it was great but when I thought about it after I realised it was poorly written. 6.  Matched by Ally Condie I didn't realise until a while after that I really didn't like Cassia as a main characte...

This Raging Light by Estelle Laure Publisher/Year: January 14th 2016 Orchard Books Source/Format: e-arc | NetGalley (Thanks NetGalley/Orchard!) Rating: 4.5 stars out of 5 I received this book from the publisher in exchange for an honest review. This in no way affects my opinion. I didn't really know what this book was about before I started it, which I liked. This Raging Light had a lot more depth and substance to it than what I expected from the cover, which was a nice surprise. For the entirety of the book I just felt so sorry for Lucille and her sister, because they didn't deserve to be in that situation. Having to look after your sister like your own is heartbreaking to read about, and Lucille was overall a great girl. The writing in this book was good and I'd love to read more from Estelle.
