I can't write books so I review them instead
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…
So remember how I said I was back? Well …. it seems I lied. Once again, I underestimated my workload and put too much on my plate. But fear not, I have continued to read and I think (and I say this very hesitantly) that I am ready to get back into writing blog posts.…
With the advent of Halloween, I thought it would be nice to read a horror story. I love a good haunting, even if I don’t personally want it to happen to me! I chose this book because I had absolutely loved The Broken Girls by this author, and I wanted to read more of her…
Thank you to Netgalley and the publishers for this eARC in exchange for my honest review. I don’t read many historical fiction novels. But when I do, I try to read ones that are as unique as possible. This one really popped out to me because I had never read about a columnist – even…
With the success of the movie The Greatest Showman, which is about the famous P. T.

I had already read a previous work of Christina Henry’s before called Lost Boy , which was absolutely…
I love Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen. It was one of the first classic novels I had ever read and I thought it was so witty and lovely. I love rereading it, and watching movie adaptations of it, so of course when I heard about this book, I knew I had to give it…
I saw this book and was immediately drawn by its beautiful cover. And after I read the premise of this story, I knew that I had to give it a shot. It has been so long since I’ve read a historical fiction novel, and this was the perfect chance for me to get back into…
Thank you to Netgalley and Simon and Schuster Canada for this eARC in exchange for my honest review. Summary (Goodreads): Newly married, Scottie and Michael are seduced by Tuscany’s famous beauty. But the secrets they are keeping from each other force them beneath the splendid surface to a more complex view of ltaly, America and…
After I read The Good People, I knew I wanted to find more books by this author and read them. Burial Rites was actually the author’s debut novel, and it is based on a true event. I love a good historical story and I love Kent writes her books so I was eager to jump into her…
Thank you to Simon and Schuster and Edelweiss for this eARC in exchange for my honest review. I don’t have much of a preamble for why I chose this book. It sounded creepy and I love creepy and gothic stories. Sometimes, that’s all a bookworm really needs! Summary (Goodreads): On top of the Yorkshire Moors,…
