I absolutely love queer historical fiction, as it’s another way to show/prove that queer people aren’t anything new. LGBTQ+ people have been around since the beginning of time and will continue to be here! The whole mystery was fun but not too surprising. I’m still trying to figure out why the summary references Knives Out […]
This definitely wasn’t a favorite book of mine in general or for the year. But it was interesting to read right after the United States election. While I don’t currently live in a post-war world, the whole idea of loving a country that has never loved me the way I love it is certainly something […]
I guess when I first heard about this book I didn’t fully read the summary or something because what I read wasn’t what I was expecting. I thought this was going to be an origin story of Baba Yaga and how she became the ferocious, old hag who kidnaps and eats children. Or at least […]
I really thought this was going to be a five star read. It started out so well, Lennon’s life falling apart, the mysterious phone call, this mysterious campus that is hidden from all of Savannah. It had such potential! For starters, I did not like the Lennon and Dante relationship. Even before they got together, […]
Okay, this is going to sound weird with my star rating, but I absolutely loved this book! Such a fun time, and the banter between Adrian and Isolde was everything! So, why did I rate it 3.5 stars? Well…that’s due to the plot. The story itself just felt pretty basic. Of course, romance and fantasy […]
I absolutely loved this novel! Even though Juliet and Jonathan didn’t end up together at the end of this novel, I’m at least glad that there’s no longer any misunderstandings between Jonathan and Juliet. I was so upset at the end of the second novel where they both think the other doesn’t like them and […]
You know those books that you just want to wrap yourself in and escape the real world into? This is definitely one of them for me! The whole Dangerous Damsels series is a world I would love to live in and befriend Charlotte, Cecilia, Alex, and Ned. As with the first one, this is definitely […]
Okay, so this novel was a lot! The novel itself has many themes and ideas in it for only 300 pages from friendship to death to how to handle grief. It was also a lot because I wasn’t expecting my own past trauma with cancer to come rearing it’s ugly head. For starters, I absolutely […]
I definitely enjoyed this one more than Nine Rules to Break When Romancing a Rake! I absolutely loved Isabel as a character. I thought she was so strong and independent, and her story was just so heart wrenching. Her character arc of learning to trust and love someone was so lovely to read. Isabel’s creation […]
Darcy, I thought you said you wouldn’t read a Ali Hazelwood book? Yes, I know and don’t worry I have a steaming pile of crow next to me right now. Before I start talking about my issues with the book, I did actually enjoy it. It was an enjoyable mystery to figure out what had […]
