I don’t know what it is about romantasy that falls flat for me most of the time. I really, really wanted to love this book and actually expected this to be a 4 or 5 star read. But sadly, that is not the case. The characters themselves were quite boring, as was the relationship. I […]

To start off, I have to say I’ve never read The Wife of Bath or any of the Canterbury Tales. How I went through a master’s in English without reading this, I do not know, but I did. I did read over a summary of the tale to get a background of where this novel […]

Oh, the pining! Such perfection that it’s pretty closely tied for my favorite India Holton novel The League of Gentlewomen Witches. Having geography be the study of magic and magical disasters was such a fun twist to the academic profession. The characters were all such wonderfully written, from the two main characters to even the […]
India Holton’s books are always such a romp of a good time! They’re lighthearted, adventurous, and absurdist while also having a realness to them at the same time. With The Ornithologist’s Field Guide to Love, there’s Beth and Devon who are both so wonderful as characters and as a couple. I always love a good […]
