Book Review – Silver in the Bone by Alexandra Bracken
I am so happy to be writing another book review because this means that I loved the book and wanted to talk about it to anybody willing to listen! If I had to describe a true YA Fantasy book that gives you all the feels, mystery, and a badass FMC to root for, I would just tell you to read Silver in the Bones by Alexandra Bracken. It was such a quick read but in the best way because it kept me wanting to learn more about the world, the characters, and their untimely fates. I loved the touches to Arthurian legend, how it played on a classic tale in…

Book Review – Fourth Wing by Rebecca Yarros
I have found my favourite book of 2023. Yes we are only 6 months in, and some of my most anticipated reads of this year have not even been released yet, but I think I have found the one. This book… THIS BOOK… Oh my goodness the way it floored me completely and utterly from the second I read the first page until weeks, WEEKS, after I finished it. It’s been a while since I had a book hangover and this book did just that. The characters were just.. AH. The concept, the plot, the world, the dragons!!!! I know I tend to get overtly excited when talking about books…

Book Review – House of Pounding Hearts by Olivia Wildenstein (Kingdom of Crows #2)
So if you read my review on the first book in the series (Kingdom of Crows # 1 – Review), then you know my need to read the second book was unbearable. Halfway through reading the first book, I ordered the second book and as soon as I finished House of Beating Wings I started House of Pounding Hearts. You know how sometimes you think “wow, that was so good, like either the next book is gonna sink or it won’t live up to the first one”… well… it lived up and then some. I found myself falling more and more into the world as we got to see it…

Book Review – House of Beating Wings by Olivia Wildenstein (Kingdom of Crows # 1)
I’ve run out of ways to start these book reviews without sounding like a broken record because this book was just… ahhhh… chef’s kiss times ten! I read it all in one sitting, despite half-way through I tried and I mean TRIED to stop myself from reading too quickly because I genuinely wanted to savour it but I just couldn’t. I had to keep reading and good Lord, I was not disappointed. From the plot that kept me on the edge of my seats, to the characters I kept shouting at out loud, to the romance that at times made me so sad yet so happy… how I don’t even…

Book Review – The Wedding Crasher by Mia Sosa
I may have found the cutest, funniest, and pretty steamy fake dating romance novel of the summer. BookTok did not disappoint in their recommendation yet again! It was a quick read, which was lovely especially if you are away on holiday or wanting a break from the hefty fantasy novels that leave you in a book slump. From the plot to the characters, this book made me laugh out loud, squeal, and put the book down flushed at the romance happening before me. The part I most enjoyed I would say is definitely the diversity in cultures and experiences that were woven throughout the entire book giving it a realness…

Book Review – Belladonna by Adalyn Grace
I want to apologize in advance if this review seems all over the place and incoherent at times… it’s just this book right here is one that has made my list for top books I thoroughly enjoyed this year thurs far. The chokehold this book had on me was unreal. I could not put it down but when I did, it was because I was too overwhelmed with blushing or gasping or accusing the different characters of murder! It had intrigue and most importantly, it had an immortal shadow being that was handsome and mysterious and oh-so-witty. Reading this was like the world had disappeared and I was encased in…
