Book Review | Shield of Sparrows

Book Review | Shield of Sparrows

I have mixed feelings about this book. Overall, the book is an enjoyable, escapist book. I’m going to start with the parts I didn’t like and end with what was done well. This review is not spoiler free, so proceed at your own risk! First off, I don’t understand all the questions that were in […]

Book Review | The Geographer’s Map to Romance

Book Review | The Geographer’s Map to Romance

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 […]

Book Review | The Ornithologist’s Field Guide to Love

Book Review | The Ornithologist’s Field Guide to Love

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 […]

ARC Review | Seven Deadly Thorns

ARC Review | Seven Deadly Thorns

OH MY WORD!! To say I loved every moment of this book would be an understatement. Everything about this was perfect, from the plot to the characters to the romance. Viola and Roze’s chemistry came right off the page. I always love a good enemies to lovers trope and how they have to put aside […]

Book Review | Butcher & Blackbird

Book Review | Butcher & Blackbird

I keep going back and forth on how to rate this book. There were some elements I really loved and others that I didn’t connect to or could be better worked on. Starting with what I didn’t like. I know I’m not a fan of insta-lust or insta-love trope, I feel like with this type […]

ARC Review | Tip In

ARC Review | Tip In

This was a really adorable book! I decided to read it due to the fact that Maya knows nothing about sports, and while I’m completely ignorant of sports, I do like the fact that she’s not super knowledgeable of sports. Sometimes when reading sports romances, I feel lost in the sports parts. The fake-dating is […]
