I am a complete sucker for Greek and Roman-inspired books. I also am always looking for pirate books. So the fact that this book brings these two book-passions of mine to life is wonderful! Not only did it have a world I wanted to explore, but the characters were delightfully complex. Teriana is a boss pirate … Continue reading Dark Shores Review: Roman-inspired world and a boss pirate princess
Is monster-hunter a specific genre because if not it should be. I want and need more monster hunting books. Or maybe I just need more Maggie. As I read this book, I realized that Maggie is 100% the kind of character I follow to the end of long series. This book has been on my … Continue reading Trail of Lightning Review: Maggie vs. Monsters
If you haven't read my review of Legendborn, I'm not a king Arther legend gall. I am pretty opposed to reading love triangles so I usually try to stay away. So this is a book I would tend to stay away from cause of the original lore, HOWEVER I WOULD HAVE MISSED OUT! This book … Continue reading The Guinevere Deception Review: girls run the world
I really enjoyed this book even though I felt on edge the entire time because I knew it was going to be a #metoo story. However, that didn't stop me from getting immersed in the story. I've been anticipating this book since I stumbled upon Kelly Yang's twitter for work. She was offering free online … Continue reading Parachutes Review: international students, friendship, and #metoo stories

This book follows two sisters, Agnes and Beth who are a part of … Continue reading Agnes at the End of the World Review: cults, the apocalypse, and two sisters
If I've said it once, I've said it maybe only once or twice before--but I love Greek mythology. I was already interested in this story of two sisters with different strengths, and then I heard it took place in alternative ancient Greece, and I HAD to read it. It did not disappoint. This book packs … Continue reading Sisters of Sword and Song: sisterhood, alternative ancient Greece, and magic
This is 100% a mystery novel. It's set in a science fiction dystopian world, but it's a mystery novel. Which is exciting because I don't read nearly enough mystery novels, so this was a fun step out of my normal reading comfort zone. Having said that, it was not not the science fiction novel I … Continue reading Four Dead Queens Review
You can read my review of the first book of the trilogy, Serpent & Dove, here. I believe that a character's flaws are what makes them beautiful and believable. I don't need a perfect heroine. I need a flawed heroine who is strong despite her flaws and grows as a person. Lou and Reid are … Continue reading Blood & Honey Review: such beautifully flawed characters
Armentrout you did it again! Holy guacamole this was a great book. I love getting to return to the world of wardens, demons, and angels. Trinity is a really interesting and lovable character. I'm also so happy that Zayne is getting to have a happy ending (as far as he gets more a story as … Continue reading Rage and Ruin: wholly unprepared for that ending
Friends. This is my last post about the Throne of Glass series! I actually finished the series months ago, but this summer/fall has been... well you probably know because you've been living your own version of what I've been living. So, I don't think me taking months to write this post about a series I … Continue reading TOG Marathon Finally Done!
