Spoiler alert: This review may contain spoilers for Truthwitch and Windwitch. If I was to use one word to sum up all of my thoughts about Bloodwitch, it would be ‘confused’. I was so absolutely confused from beginning to end that I honestly can’t even comprehend reading another book in this series. Granted, I didn’t read Sightwitch, so it has been two […]
This review may contain some spoilers for the Grisha trilogy and the Six of Crows duology. For those of you wondering, I definitely think that you need to read the Grisha trilogy and the Six of Crows duology before reading King of Scars. There are lots and lots of mentions of things that happened in both of those series and it’s a steep learning curve […]
The Hating Game was one of my favourite books of 2016 and remains to this day one of my favourite chick-lit books of all time. So 99 Percent Mine had a lot to live up to and unfortunately did not hit the same heights as Sally Thorne’s debut. Although, it had one of my favourite tropes, friends to […]
Jenn Bennett is someone who I know I can always count on for a quick and cute contemporary YA romance that is well-written. While Starry Eyes was probably my least favourite of her novels so far, it was still a really great read. For me, the setting and the plot didn’t really grab me because it’s all […]
I feel like I’ve been waiting forever for a new Markus Zusak book and Bridge of Clay does not disappoint. It has the same beautiful, metaphoric writing as The Book Thief, though the story and plot is anything but the same. Bridge of Clay is a story about five brothers, “the Dunbar boys”, and their parents Penny and Michael. It is […]
Having failed my Goodreads challenge for two years in a row, I am determined to get back on track with my reading. I did some research (for the first time in a long time) on upcoming 2019 releases and now I’m extremely excited for what my reading year is going to look like. We decided […]
It was extremely difficult for me to choose my favourite books of the year because I simply haven’t read very many books this year. I’ve only read about 55 books this year, which is a major step down from the 200+ that I used to read. I also did a lot of rereads this year, […]
I absolutely love Patrick Ness’s books and his storytelling, and I was excited by And the Ocean Was Our Sky because of how similar its (physical) vibe was to A Monster Calls. And the Ocean Was Our Sky is a retelling of Moby Dick, which I confess I have never read… but there isn’t much prerequisite knowledge you need in order […]
Trigger warnings: sexual assault, animal cruelty, torture The Belles was a book that was on many people’s most highly anticipated books of 2018 list and it was the main reason why I picked up the audiobook last month. I went into it without really knowing anything and without having seen very many reviews. To say that […]
