Blue Lily, Lily Blue – Maggie Stiefvater

book 1 | book 2 Blue was perfectly aware that it was possible to have a friendship that wasn’t all-encompassing, that wasn’t blinding, deafening, maddening, quickening. It was just that now that she’d had this kind, she didn’t want the other. Where do I even begin? This review took me six weeks to write, and it’s literally only because I loved it so much that I don’t know how to describe it. I went through three sleeves of page tabs on this book,...

T10T: 2017’s New-to-Me Authors

This is a weekly tag hosted by The Broke and the Bookish, and this week’s challenge is Top Ten New-to-Me Authors I Read In 2017! I specifically opted not to pick any debut authors – these are just authors that were published pre-2017, but I didn’t check out until January 1st or later. NOTE: If any of these dates are wrong… blame Goodreads. 1. Sarah J Maas – first published in 2012 Yep, she’s on this list! I could have sworn I first read...

All of these are books I was planning to read in 2017, but didn’t get around to… 1. City of Bones – Cassandra Clare I feel like this series has been on...

T10T: Characters Who Could Teach Me Something!

This is a weekly tag hosted by The Broke and the Bookish, and this week’s challenge is Ten Characters Who Would Make Great Leaders! I like to change the challenge up a little sometimes, so I decided to name ten fictional characters who I would like to learn a thing or two from (and what those things are!). Click the book covers for links to the book’s Goodreads listing, or the fanart pictures for links to the artist’s page!...

Down the TBR Hole #4

Down the TBR Hole was originally created over at Lost in a Story, and is a super fun (and simultaneously productive) tag to help you whittle away at those never-ending TBRs! (By the way, you can click on the covers to go to the Goodreads listings!) I decided to do 10 books per post instead of 5, otherwise we will literally never finish this meme series. EVER. It works like this: Go to your goodreads to-read shelf. Order on ascending date...

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. ✘ PLOT In the desert of Colorado, there lives a family – the Sorias, who have been blessed with a generational ability to perform miracles. These...

July ’17 Haul & Wrap-up

Since last month was such a heavy haul, I went easy on the bank this month and stuck pretty well to my “nothing but kindle sales” book ban. I only purchased one physical book, and a few ebooks; the rest were ARCs and giveaway prizes! My reading this month was awesome, though, so I’ll start with my wrap-up! July Wrap-up The Only Alien on the Planet – Kristen D. Randle (review) ★★★★★ Just Listen – Sarah Dessen (review) ★★★★★ Final Girls – Riley...
