I’ve been really excited for this book since I heard about it sometime last summer or fall on my Instagram. I’m always here to read a haunted house horror book, but one that delves into an area that I’m not as familiar with, Mormonism and plural marriages, just added an extra little intrigue while reading. […]
When I first read this, I rated it 3.75. While reading it, I was thinking of lowering it to 3 stars and which is what I set it at once finishing it. But after taking the day to think, I do have to lower it to 2.5. I hate doing that because I really love […]
I keep going back and forth on if I liked this book or not. The writing quality was definitely top notch and stunning (while being horrific at times). Yet, there was some aspects that didn’t sit well with me. For most of the book, I assume Dante is 18, but it was over 60% before […]
An Arcane Inheritance truly snuck up on me. Before I knew it, I was drawn into the world that Kamilah Cole created and in tears by the end! I definitely am adding all of Cole’s other books to my TBR. The beginning moments of Ellory having deja vu moments were subtle but interesting enough to […]
It’s been a busy holiday season (even though I haven’t done anything for the holidays yet, I’m just already tired), so here are some recent-ish reads that I haven’t reviewed yet. Darcy

I’ve been slowing down my reading this month partly cause the year’s winding down, plus I’ve already met my reading goals for the year. All of the books I read this month were for book clubs I’m in. I was planning on reading more during the Thanksgiving break but the best laid plans. Darcy
In one of my book clubs I attend we were talking about the difference between historical and contemporary romance. With contemporary romance, there’s just usually not enough stakes going on to really care. A Merry Little Meet Cute tries to establish stakes with the main characters needing this movie to work out for their future, […]
Most people who know me know that I love true crime. It’s a combination of the mystery aspect and the psychology behind each crime. What makes a person do something so heinous? What circumstances or environment drove them to do this? Yet, something that I’ve battled with the past couple of years is the ethics […]
