I was so excited for this book when I first heard about it in one of the summer reading guides I went through (I cannot remember which one *laughing emoji*). While the novel was well thought out leading up to the reveal, the last 100 pages or so were a let down. One of the […]
This has been on my TBR for a while and with the show premiering in June, I decided it was time to read it. It’s definitely one of the funniest novels I’ve read in a while, if not years. I was snort laughing at least every other path, if not every page. It was definitely […]
I had never heard of this book until someone put it in the suggestion box at the library I work at. I was interested in the story but wasn’t planning on reading it or anything. But then it arrived and on the first page of the book I saw that it was set in Abilene […]
I first heard of this novel from TikTok (@wtfaleisa) who talked about how this book sparked the 4B Movement in South Korea, which has since updated my algorithm to show me TikToks about the actual history of South and North Korea, and my continual growing hate of the United States. Moving on, I bought it […]
This could possibly be I read this during a stressful time (job interview and waiting to find out if I got it) but it was a little slow to get started and in the middle. Both Lucky and Maverick are adorable, as individuals and as a couple. Of course, Rebel stole the whole show, absolutely […]
When I first finished the book, I thought it was an enjoyable novel. It was an interesting story to focus on the Pied Piper child evacuations in WWII and a young girl going missing destroying multiple families and the village they were living in. Yet, the more I think about it, the less I like […]
Before we get to the review, I want to bring to your attention the Go Fund Me campaign to help Daneia and Mohamed save their family. Dania (it’s spelled both ways in the post) comes from a family of 9. They have lost everything, our home, our friends. They’ve been at war for 8 months […]
I remember the day I was browsing the bookstore and came across Stalking Jack the Ripper. It was a recently released book—had been out for a week, maybe two—but I had never heard of it. I’m obsessed with the Jack the Ripper murders, as basic as it is to say, it’s the case that really […]
Before we get to the review I want to bring attention to a GoFundMe to save a family from Gaza and start again. Haya Murtaja and her two daughters, Sham and Maryam, have lost everything since the war. Her daughters have suffered a lot in the war, especially since they now live in a camp, […]
Before we get to the review, I want to take a moment to feature a GoFundMe to help Reema from Gaza rebuild her dream. Reema was a 4th level pharmacy student and health educator who’s dreams were shattered by the horrors of war. Her university now lies in ruins from bombings. Her and her family […]
