Before I start picking apart this book, I do want to state that V.E. Schwab (or Victoria Schwab) has been an autobuy author for me. The past few books of hers I didn’t read the summary before pre-ordering them. I love her books and her writing, so saying I didn’t like a book of hers […]
Before I get into the review of this, I first have to say DRUGS! This whole thing was about DRUGS! At this point, I was already over the book and was just trying to finish it, but I’m still pissed. One of my book clubs back in Texas read this book in 2025, and even […]
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 […]
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
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 […]
This is actually the lowest rated Emily Henry book I’ve read. I’m a little shocked that I did rate it so low but here we are. I was really into the book at the beginning. I thought it was a fun and sweet novel, but after the first few chapters I knew that Poppy and […]
The first three-quarters of the novel was pretty good. I love retellings and seeing the point of view of a known story from a different character brings a fresh perspective and ideas to the novel. Elizabeth is such a fascinating character to go through the story with as most of what she does is understandable. […]
