I came into My Plain Jane with super high expectations, as I adored its predecessor My Lady Jane (which you can find my review here!). Keep in mind that these books are not connected at all, except through the focus of a woman named “Jane” and the authors writing it. You don’t need to read […]
I’m still struggling a little bit with how I feel about this book. There’s no doubt that I absolutely love Morgan Matson’s books (I’ve read every single one that she’s published under this name) but I didn’t really connect with this one as much as I have her previous ones. Save the Date is undoubtedly funny and […]
This book was by no means bad. The writing was totally riveting, the first person POV narrative from Jinghua was intriguing, and the research is really well-done. Like, I read 15% into the book and have to commend the author on her knowledge about the Song/Yuan dynasty, and her placement of the Chinese songs and […]
It’s been too long since Robyn Schneider has released a book and I am so glad to have a new one in my hands! I absolutely loved The Beginning of Everything (Severed Heads, Broken Hearts) and Extraordinary Means so I am insanely happy that she has a new release. Invisible Ghosts follows Rose, a high schooler and drama geek, who […]
You know how some anthologies have hit or misses? In a mix of so many authors, there are bound to be better ones than others. This was not the case with this anthology. I can safely say that I loved all the short stories in A Thousand Beginnings and Endings. This anthology features 15 short […]
The thing with the fantasy genre is that it’s hard to make a plot that has been written millions of times before unique. Onyx and Ivory has great writing, pretty swell characters, and a decent setting, but its major drawback was how predictable the plot was. It follows many traits of the numerous fantasies I’ve […]
Ice Wolves is a fun, magical little story about families with magic in their veins with children who become wolves or dragons. When Anders shifts into a wolf – and his sister Rayna a dragon, the two go off into their own adventures, discovering more about themselves. This was a quick, magical read with a […]
American Panda is a novel that I have been eagerly awaiting since I first saw the cover reveal and learned about the book. It’s about a Taiwanese girl, Mei, with huge pressure from her family to become a doctor and marry a high-achieving Chinese guy (preferably a doctor), despite the fact that Mei is afraid of […]
THIS. BOOK. Has left me raw. Gutted. It’s been a while since a sci-fi set in space has dug its way into my heart like that. Honestly though, I’m extremely weak to family settings on a spacecraft and romances that make my chest burn and nonstop action. IT JUST HAD ALL MY WEAKNESSES, OKAY? I […]
