This world and its magical elements in this book are out of this universe. I can totally understand why this book took the YA fantasy genre by storm. The magic of this world is so interesting and inspiring. It reminded me of Percy Jackson because I was thinking about how I would love to know … Continue reading Children of Blood and Bone
This audiobook has such a fairytale before bed vibe, and since fall is coming, this is a great way to get into a spooky mood. The narrator, Moira Quirk is fabulous and did such a great job with the voices, pacing, and I can't get over her voice. She has a British accent and that's … Continue reading Bone Houses Audiobook Review
https://videopress.com/v/3yvXqSHW?preloadContent=metadata I've mentioned before that I'm not an audiobook gal. I have a hard time listening while doing other things in my life.

I also saw that this book happened a year later, and I wanted to at least attempt to create the feeling of a year's worth of time even though I maybe took a month to read … Continue reading The Case For Jamie
It's hard to put into words how good this series continues to be. The plot keeps expanding as Shusterman adds new perspectives. https://videopress.com/v/1dKjfT3Z?preloadContent=metadata I also really enjoyed getting to see the Thunderhead's perspective on not only what's happening currently, but it's perspective on EVERYTHING. I love that the Thunderhead is completely good. I'm not a … Continue reading Thunderhead: the perfect follow up to Scythe
