Jeann and I decided to buddy read The Incredible Adventures of Cinnamon Girl together this past weekend. It’s a novel that we were both really excited to pick up and it sounded like a really fun book to read together. So let’s start off with some general thoughts about the book. Slightly boring plot… Jenna: […]
You know when you’re reading a book and you think it’s the best thing ever but afterwards you struggle to find the words? That was Truthwitch for me. I absolutely loved so many parts of it, including the descriptions of the magic, the sisterly bond between Safi and Iseult and the setting. But I can’t pinpoint exactly what […]
Star Struck, the fourth book in Jenny McLachlan’s companion series, is a very fast-paced and easy contemporary read. If you’re looking for something quick to read, with some good character development, you should check out these companion novels. I’ve previously read Sunkissed (The Ladybirds #3) and also enjoyed the character development and female friendships in […]
Are you looking for a book that will make you giggle until your sides hurt? One that is extremely witty, with the most hilarious dialogue? One where you fall in love with each and every one of the ridiculously awesome characters? Then congrats, because you’ve come to the right place. My Lady Jane was full […]
If there’s anything that I wished I had at university, it is Summer Skin.

This […]
I don’t really know what to make of this book. Have you ever read something and felt like you simultaneously understood everything and understood nothing? This is one of those books for me. As I was reading it, I felt like I was able to follow the science and physics of what was going on, […]
I’m just starting to venture into the realm of graphic novels so I don’t know too much about them or which ones are popular, but I had to pick up Nimona because of the countless good things I’d heard about it (and the giant National Book Award Nominee sticker on the cover). I ended up […]
This rant contains spoilers for the first book. I never thought I’d say this about a Sarah J. Maas book – but A Court of Mist and Fury really pissed me off. I knew it was going to be a Feyre/Rhysand book going in, but unfortunately, the book ended up pissing me off in a multitude […]
I was so delighted when I learned that the author’s previous debut work, Love Fortunes and Other Disasters, would be getting a companion sequel. Love Charms introduces a competition going on in Grimbaud for love charm-makers that want to fill in the spot that Zita left after she was defeated in the first book. Obviously, […]
