I can't write books so I review them instead
After absolutely adoring The Gilded Wolves series (which I will definitely be reviewing and linking at a later point), I was so so excited to delve into a new adult novel by this author. From the design of the cover to the mysteriously vague synopsis, it had its hooks in me. Now, I’ve finished this…
A long long time ago, I read Shadow and Bone by Leigh Bardugo. It was one of my first forays into YA fiction and I believe I enjoyed it. But I never got into the rest of the books in the series and even though, I would see the Grisha series and other Leigh Bardugo…
Thank you to Edelweiss and the publishers for this eARC in exchange for my honest review. I am such a fan of retellings of classic fairy tales and stories. I’ve read quite a few that have featured Cinderella but I’m always searching for a new take on this classic and I was really excited to…
With the success of the movie The Greatest Showman, which is about the famous P. T. Barnum, it comes with no surprise that I was super excited to find out that someone had written a book featuring him. I had already read a previous work of Christina Henry’s before called Lost Boy , which was absolutely…
Lately, I’ve been looking for a lot of standalone fantasy stories. I really like getting into a novel and know that this one book contains that satisfactory ending I so crave. Don’t get me wrong, I love series, too. But I hate waiting for the next book to come out and sometimes I don’t get…
The first book I ever read by Gregory Maguire was Confessions of an Ugly Stepsister and it was fantastic. It was a different take on the classic Cinderella story and it was the first time I ever read a retelling. You could say that this is what got me into this genre in the first…
I read Seraphina a while back and I fell in love. It had dragons and court life and great world-building. It was definitely very different from most fantasy stories I’ve read but I enjoyed it immensely. When I saw that LibraryThing was hosting an Early Reviewer giveaway for Tess of the Road, I immediately jumped at the chance,…
Although I’ve heard of Laini Taylor, I’ve never read anything by her. I’ve seen loads of posts about her Daughter of Smoke and Bone series, and while I’ve been intrigued, I just haven’t found the time to get into it. However, I couldn’t resist this novel. The cover was gorgeous and the synopsis was too good to pass…
I received this novel as an advance copy from Edelweiss in exchange for an honest review. I went for this novel because I saw a ton of people talking about how amazing it was. As a fantasy lover, I knew I couldn’t pass up the opportunity to read this book. When I saw it posted…
Books that involve witchcraft or covens are my thing. I will literally devour any book that mentions the word “witch” in it because I am THAT obsessed! I’m so glad I got to read an ARC of this book because it was such a fantastic read and fulfilled my need for dark stories! Summary (Goodreads): Magic…
