Book Review | The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes

Book Review | The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes

It definitely took me a few years to read this. Partly because of the popularity of the book and everyone was checking it out. The other reason is that I was hesitant to read this book due to how little I enjoyed the original trilogy. The first book of the trilogy was absolutely fascinating. The […]

ARC Review | The Death I Gave Him

ARC Review | The Death I Gave Him

I never thought I’d cry over another AI after Jarvis’s “death” in Avengers: Age of Ultron, yet here we are! My love for Horatio knows no bounds, and the best part of his characterization is that Liu made me have sympathy for Hayden (our Hamlet). Typically, I just don’t give a damn about Hamlet. He’s […]

Book Review | Fourth Wing

Book Review | Fourth Wing

I should give up reading hyped-up books I hear about on BookTok. It never works out for me, and I set my hopes low for this book before starting it. I will review this differently than other books by separating the two main genres: fantasy and romance. The fantasy aspects of the book were okay. […]

Book Review | Six of Crows

Book Review | Six of Crows

I was never planning on reading Six of Crows. I never planned on reading any of Leigh Bardugo’s books after reading Shadow and Bone. I was not impressed when I read Shadow and Bone within the first year it was out. The world-building was excellent, and I loved that Russia was the setting, but the characters were bland, and the […]

Book Review | The Murder of Mr. Wickham

Book Review | The Murder of Mr. Wickham

Before I gush about how much I loved this book and how fun it is, I will talk about a few frustrating things. I was unhappy with how long it took to get to Wickham’s murder. Not only does the story drag on at the beginning, but I also hate Wickham so much that I […]

ARC Review | The Invisible Hour

ARC Review | The Invisible Hour

The best thing about this book is that I want to give Nathaniel Hawthorne’s The Scarlet Letter another chance. This is quite surprising because my dislike of The Scarlet Letter is quite known among my friends. It did take a bit to get into the story, but I understand why the author wrote it the […]

ARC Review | Fair Rosaline

ARC Review | Fair Rosaline

First, I’ve never been a fan of Romeo and Juliet. Shocking, I know (not really for those who know me). It’s an overdone tragedy when there are plenty of others out there that can fit the bill as easily as Romeo and Juliet. Now, this is not a judgment on anyone if they do like […]
