I can't write books so I review them instead
This is a novel where I went in knowing nothing about the subject matter. I know absolutely nothing about tea or tea leaves; I don’t even drink tea (which is something that my family just can’t get over)! I also am completely unaware about Chinese culture, and the ethnic minorities that reside in China. This…
I’ve been seeing this book everywhere and I really liked the premise of the story. It hints at fairy lore and herbs and changelings, as well as featuring 3 women as the main characters. I was really excited to read this book. So here is my review: Hedged in by gossip and joined by their…
I received this novel as an advance copy from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Corrine and her boyfriend, Dominic, have been trying very hard to conceive. But after 3 failed IVF attempts, it is looking like becoming parents is not in their cards. After Corrine’s sister, Ashley, loans the couple money for one…
Literary fiction is a genre I don’t usually go for, mostly because I don’t have the time to get immersed in it. These aren’t novels you can quickly rush through.

I received this novel as an advanced copy from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

I love fantasy and supernatural novels that have strong females in them, and this one seemed like one…
I received this novel as an advanced copy from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. I really really liked the premise of this novel. It just seemed so twisted that I thought it would be something I would really enjoy. I was really happy to get an ARC for this novel… and now, here…
I resisted for a long time before reading this novel. Why? Because it was getting super popular and it was getting televised, and I thought it was just all hype. It’s happened so many times where people get really excited about a book and then I read it with high expectations and get let down.…
I received this novel as an advanced copy from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. I don’t know what is with this trend of giving vague blurbs for novels but it seems to be my weak spot! It’s probably because I love surprises so much … a book that doesn’t give me any clues…
I received this novel as an advanced copy from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. I’ll be honest: when I started reading this book, I didn’t know what to expect. The premise of the novel doesn’t give much information and it really keeps the reader’s imagination open. What I will say is that I…
I received this novel as an advanced copy from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. I’ve only read one other book by Alice Hoffman, but I really loved it. So I was super excited for the chance to read this one! This novel is a prequel to Practical Magic, which I have not read…
