I can't write books so I review them instead
So I finally read The Magicians. Why did it take me so long, when there has been so much hype about it, especially once it became a show on the SyFy channel? Well, it was because of all of the hype that I didn’t read it. Sometimes, people keep boosting a novel to the point where…
Among my literary friends, Sandra Brown was a popular author. I would always hear of some book by her in passing and would be urged to read it. This time, instead of promising to read it in the future, I decided to actually pick up one of her novels and read it. So here is…
I received this novel as an advanced copy from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. I love reading books about alternate realities/worlds. I just recently read Dark Matter, which dealt with parallel universes, and it was absolutely fascinating. I just love the concept of having multiple versions of the world existing on different planes…

I like weird novels with weird stories that could literally take you anywhere. That’s what I felt about this novel, when I first read its premise. It was just so out-of-the-box and unexpected that I was excited to give it a shot. Well, here is my review! When you are a ward of the state,…
This novel is completely out of my comfort zone. For one, the genre for this novel most closely resembles realistic fiction, and I don’t usually read novels from this genre. This novel is also very different for me as it deals with cinematography, which is something I am completely unfamiliar with. When I first picked…
I almost never read short stories or novellas. I just find them to be more of a teaser than an actual satisfying story. But after reading Ink and Bone by Lisa Unger (check out my post a few days ago!), I knew that I had to give this trilogy of novellas a shot, especially since it…
I received this novel as an advanced copy from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. As usual, this book was advertised as being along the same vein as Gone Girl and Girl on the Train; the former I loved and the latter I thought was just meh. Whenever I get these kinds of comparisons, I…
