This was an adorable and fun book with a group of LGBTQ+ high schoolers trying to solve a crime. I’m always down for books with queer kids and crime solving! First off, I really love how complex the cast of characters was, and not just in terms of the main characters. The principal (the main […]
Such a thought-provoking book on gender and identity, an epic look into a world that doesn’t have gender. The world-building is probably the biggest focus for people but everything else works in the background and slowly sneaks up on you. Not realizing how emotionally I was invested in all of this til near the end. […]
High school Darcy would’ve quite literally killed for a book like this when they were a teenager. To know they weren’t alone, that others in the world felt like they did, and that they weren’t abnormal or wrong would’ve been everything. Both girls come to the relationship with their own issues and traumas that are […]
This book was really fun and quite hilarious, which I wasn’t expecting considering the contents of the novel. I do want to protect James like a baby brother and be best friends with Nye! The whole book was fascinating tale of what body snatchers did along with the why and how. Before such things as […]
Before starting on the review for the book, I have to admit that I’m not a fan of The Bachelor/ette, Bachelor in Paradise, or any of it’s many other spin-offs. I’ve watched a season of the Bachelor (or maybe the Bachelorette) and a season of Bachelor in Paradise. It contained a lot of what is […]
In the Hour of Crows was such a fantastical, mysterious book set in the Appalachia region of Georgia. Such a deep novel of a young woman trying to live after tragedy strikes. While I read the summary and knew what to expect for the novel, I was a bit thrown that there wasn’t a romance […]
While I absolutely loved this novel, it took me a while to really get into it. The inciting action of the story, the murder of Venus’s mom, doesn’t happen till about 20% into the book. A couple of chapters later, when the Grand Witcher offers Venus revenge, that the story starts becoming interesting. To clarify, […]
Wow! I finished this late Saturday night; it’s now Monday, and I’m still not over this novel. The writing was beautiful and atmospheric, and I loved all the characters. And, of course, that ending! Ugh! I need the next book now. I was so excited to read this book because, first, it sounded fascinating, and […]
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 […]
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 […]
