This was my very first Kerstin Gier read and I couldn’t resist picking this up when I saw it while browsing Audible. I had heard good things about the Ruby Red series and the cover of this book looked so cute. While I enjoyed the setting of the book a lot, I couldn’t connect with the characters […]
Tweet Cute was such a cute book! It was simultaneously exactly what I had expected and nothing like I thought it would be. There were a few twists and turns in it that I didn’t see coming and it was really fun to read. The novel follows Pepper, who occasionally helps with the social media […]
I love both Becky Albertalli and Aisha Saeed so much and I was so excited to hear that they had collabed on a book. I was equally excited to be part of the blog tour for this wonderful book and I’m happy to announce that there are 3 copies up for grabs at the end […]
Dark and Deepest Red is a magical realism story inspired by Hans Christian Anderson’s The Red Shoes and the dancing plague of 1518 in Strasbourg. Like all of Anna-Marie McLemore’s books, it’s beautifully written and incorporates elements of magical realism that makes it really delightful to read. It’s a story about embracing who you are and your […]
Happy new year everyone! I can’t believe we’re in 2020, especially since it’s been a while since my last post. For my first post of the year, I’m going to do something incredibly unoriginal and write down 5 of my resolutions for the year. I’m hoping that writing them down will help me keep working […]
Even though I don’t really celebrate anything during the holiday season, I absolutely love gift giving. Carefully curating and selecting gifts for others is one of my favourite things to do and I also love gift wrapping. Although I haven’t been reading very much these past two years, I thought I would still share some […]
I’ve read all of Sarah Crossan’s books and Toffee is probably my favourite of hers. Like with her other books, Toffee tackles hard-hitting topics in verse and makes us feel all of the emotions. And because it’s written in verse, it’s a really quick but impactful read. Toffee is a beautiful story about families of choice and finding acceptance […]
Carry On was one of my favourite books of 2015 (Jeann and Aila loved it too – check out our discussion review!) and I could have lived happily with just that one book. But Rainbow Rowell decided to gift us with more and I’m certainly not complaining. While Wayward Son didn’t quite reach the heights of Carry On (in […]
I’ve had a difficult time finding contemporary novels that I’ve loved this year, and Scars Like Wings has definitely been one of the best. Which makes me even more delighted to be part of the blog tour. Check out the blog tour schedule here. There will also be a giveaway for one copy of Scars Like Wings […]
