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 […]
Oh, the pining! Such perfection that it’s pretty closely tied for my favorite India Holton novel The League of Gentlewomen Witches. Having geography be the study of magic and magical disasters was such a fun twist to the academic profession. The characters were all such wonderfully written, from the two main characters to even the […]
India Holton’s books are always such a romp of a good time! They’re lighthearted, adventurous, and absurdist while also having a realness to them at the same time. With The Ornithologist’s Field Guide to Love, there’s Beth and Devon who are both so wonderful as characters and as a couple. I always love a good […]
I really enjoyed the book up to the ending. It was filled with enjoyable dark humor and a great message. But I would’ve liked to have a bit more closure in the novel. I loved how all the women came together to help each other. Was it a little outlandish? Yes, of course, you’ll definitely […]
First off, I know the summary said that Faolan’s grandfather disguised her as a boy, but I was still expecting the theme of gender or non-conforming gender would have come up. It did in certain aspects with the settlement and the division of boys and girls, but there wasn’t anything in relation to Faolan. Faolan’s […]
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. […]
I definitely expected this to be a 4 or 5 star read as I usually rate Ashley Herring Blake’s books that high. But this one was a miss for me. I’m unsure what it was, whether it was the second-chance romance aspect or the holiday setting, but something was just not clicking. For the story […]
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, […]
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 […]
