“Weak or strong - she didn’t know what they meant anymore. Maybe they didn’t mean the same thing for everyone.” Buddy read with the lovely Melanie. 💖 First, you have to know that this book literally is being marketed as, and I quote, "a fantasy feminist fairy tale", and if you think that wasn't enough to… Continue reading Girls Made of Snow and Glass – Melissa Bashardoust (ARC Review)

The Gentleman’s Guide to Vice and Virtue – Mackenzi Lee
“We are not broken things, neither of us. We are cracked pottery mended with laquer and flakes of gold, whole as we are, complete unto each other. Complete and worthy and so very loved.” What I knew before reading this book: 1) it was hist-fic, and 2) it was cute as hell. What I knew… Continue reading The Gentleman’s Guide to Vice and Virtue – Mackenzi Lee
All the Crooked Saints – Maggie Stiefvater (ARC Review)
"Bicho Raro was a place of strange miracles." I am so grateful to have been given an ARC of this by my friend Julie! Thank you again! ❤ The synopsis for this book sounded so good, and the cover is gorgeous, and there are owls, and I had to have it. I was not disappointed in the slightest. ✘… Continue reading All the Crooked Saints – Maggie Stiefvater (ARC Review)
The Bone Season – Samantha Shannon
“This was what my spirit longed to do, to wander in strange lands. It couldn't stand being trapped in one body all the time.

“What will you let go of? What can you not afford to lose?” I had heard literally nothing about this book or the author when I requested it from PRH's First to Read program. All I knew, going into it, was what you can read on the GR synopsis, and that it had an intriguing cover. ✘… Continue reading Spellbook of the Lost and Found – Moïra Fowley-Doyle (ARC Review)
Dark Screams Vol 6 – Brian James Freeman & Richard Chizmar (ARC Review)
This was one of the easiest, yet most unsatisfying 1-star ratings I've ever given a book. I love horror anthologies. I own a million (okay, more like thirty) of them in assorted formats and they're just such a fun way to spend an evening for me. When I really want to enjoy one, I do what I… Continue reading Dark Screams Vol 6 – Brian James Freeman & Richard Chizmar (ARC Review)
They Both Die at the End – Adam Silvera (ARC Review)
"Maybe it's better to have gotten it right and been happy for one day instead of living a lifetime of wrongs." This was my first ever Adam Silvera book, and I'd been warned by so many people to prepare myself for ALL OF THE FEELS, but nobody could have really made me understand just how… Continue reading They Both Die at the End – Adam Silvera (ARC Review)
