Book Review | The Spirit Bares its Teeth

Book Review | The Spirit Bares its Teeth

Started the year with an Andrew Joseph White book and finishing it with one, wish I had read this sooner too! I was completely hooked by this book. Andrew Joseph White is definitely an auto-buy author for me. He writes such compelling plots with beautiful characters that I can’t help but fall in love with. […]

Book Review |The Luminaries

I was really excited to read this book! It’s been on my TBR for a while and when I first read the summary (after seeing the beautiful cover), I was ready to jump into the book. When I went to the library a few weeks ago and saw it, I knew I had to check […]

Book Review | I’m Glad My Mom Died

Book Review | I’m Glad My Mom Died

I always have a hesitation on memoirs (don’t ask me why), so it’s interesting that I’ve read two memoirs in the past two-ish months and both were 5 star reads. I might have to rethink my stand on memoir’s! This was definitely a difficult book to read at times due to my own abuse from […]

Book Review | Lavender House

Book Review | Lavender House

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 […]

ARC Review | The Resurrectionist

ARC Review | The Resurrectionist

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 […]

Book Review | This Rebel Heart

Book Review | This Rebel Heart

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 […]

Book Review | The Witch and the Tsar

Book Review | The Witch and the Tsar

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 […]

Book Review | An Academy for Liars

Book Review | An Academy for Liars

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, […]

Book Review | King of Battle and Blood

Book Review | King of Battle and Blood

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 […]

Book Review | The Perils of Lady Catherine de Bourgh

Book Review | The Perils of Lady Catherine de Bourgh

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 […]
