Nils Shukla

Nils is an avid reader of high fantasy & grimdark. She looks for monsters, magic and bloody good battle scenes. If heads are rolling, and guts are spilling, she’s pretty happy! Her obsession with the genre sparked when she first entered the realms of Middle Earth, and her heart never left there! Her favourite authors include; Tolkien, Jen Williams, John Gwynne, Joe Abercrombie, Alix E Harrow, and Fonda Lee. If Nils isn’t reading books then she’s creating stylised Bookstagram photos of them instead! You can find her on Twitter: @nilsreviewsit and Instagram: @nils.reviewsit
