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 This might be my shortest review ever. READ.THIS.BOOK. <error> LISTEN.TO <error> <error> THIS.BOOK. <error> A Blockbuster Film in Book Form Seriously. Illuminae is in a league of its own. Visually, the book is stunning and completely unique. The narrative is presented as a series of documents that create an engaging and fast paced […]

My Thoughts With the recent release on The Cruel Prince, I have been hearing a lot about Holly Black, but had never read any of her work. The Darkest Part of the Forest was recommended to me as a good standalone but also had ties to The Cruel Prince so I figured, why not start […]
2018 is shaping up to be a great year but I don’t know if my book loving heart (and bank account) can take all these new releases. There are so many series on my TBR that have new additions this year, ON TOP of the series that already have me hooked. Here are the books […]
My Thoughts I devoured the Grisha Trilogy while on a cruise last year. The world building was amazing but the main characters fell flat for me which is why I put off reading Six of Crows. That was absolutely a mistake. Six of Crows was everything I didn’t know I needed to start 2018. You […]
