Time travel! Because what could possibly go wrong? I mean, apparently, a lot? But who knew? Sci-fi is a little hit or miss with me, especially when it comes to time travel, because my brain is thiiiis big –> . Therefore, paradoxes make it go boom. And there are aaaalways paradoxes. If I’ve learned anything, […]
What’s better than watching anime? Reading a book that reads like an anime! Because reading is fun, kids. I’ve wanted to read Shadow of the Fox since it came out and I learned that it was full of Japanese lore and culture. Mostly because I’m both a simple person and an anime fan, so really, […]
I loved Diane Setterfield’s The Thirteenth Tale when I read it as a teenager. Which is impressive because teenagers hate everything. Except angst. That’s what keeps them alive. Speaking from experience here. So when I heard she had a new book coming out finally, I knew I had to read it. It was a long time coming, […]
Remember when I read The Star-Touched Queen and I enjoyed everything except the plot? Welp, A Crown of Wishes resolved that issue, and in the end, I straight-up loved it. The book both wrapped up nicely, yet still left me wanting more. Much, much more. Soap opera, style, maybe, because reality TV has nothing on Gauri and Vikram, okay? I […]
This book was just … wow. I loved it as much as I disliked it, and I’m just all sorts of conflicted. I also immediately checked out the sequel as soon as I finished reading this, and I can’t wait to start it, so there’s that. All in all, this was a really hard one […]
I picked this up after reading Paper Fury’s review, because this sounded right up my alley … and I was not disappointed! You know, I keep saying I really don’t read romance, and then I read romance and enjoy it? So I’m thinking maybe I don’t read so much adult romance? I don’t know. I’m all sorts […]
I knew from the moment I read the description that I would either love or hate In the Night Wood and there would be no in-betweens … and I kind of loved it? So I’m calling this one a win. The book seemed to deliver everything that I had expected from the blurb: a pervasive eerie […]
I want to start this out with something that I think is the most important thing to say about this book, before I even begin: I DO NOT FEEL THIS IS NOT A YA BOOK. Parents, please don’t give this book to your younger teens without first being educated on the content and knowing what […]
I’ve heard some mixed reviews about this one and wasn’t quite sure what to expect going in, but guys … I loved it! This book has all the things that I typically look for in a high fantasy: ✦ Myths, legends, or prophecies in world-building ✦ A strong female lead (or two in this case?) […]
The author had me at necromancy. Because I am horribly predictable and easy. As a reader, obviously. Did I mention the main character also dies in the first chapter? Talk about grabbing your attention. Caitlin Seal presents a world where the dead have a second chance at life … and thankfully, they’re not zombies. Because […]
