My Thoughts I am not sure I have ever encountered the level annoyance I experienced while reading Caraval. Scarlett drove me crazy with her naivety. And the constant arguing for no apparent reason and against all common sense. Who tries to row a sinking boat?!? Scarlett does. If I were Julian, I would have left […]

My Thoughts Sky in the Deep was stunning. My useless music knowledge is vast but my Viking knowledge is zilch. So it took a few chapters to get into Sky in the Deep since it made zero sense that people would hate each other just because the Gods said. But then something reached out of […]

My Thoughts Yokits, I can’t believe this is the end. The Themis Files is an epic, creative and brilliantly written trilogy. It is one of those stories that stirs something up inside, makes you question the world around you, and lingers long after it is over. I read Sleeping Giants almost two years before I […]

My Thoughts Children of Blood and Bone is my favorite book of the year, hands down. It is as epic as it is powerful. On The Surface Tomi Adeyemi creates a beautiful, brutal and immersive world of magic, prejudice and fighting back. The cultures of Children of Blood and Bone are so vivid they draw you […]
