I can't write books so I review them instead
This is the first time I’ve read anything by this author. I didn’t know what to expect except that it would loosely be based on fairy tales. I love fairy tales (especially the Hans Christian Anderson ones) so I decided to give this a try! Celia is the youngest in a set of triplets, each…
I decided to give this trilogy a shot. Even though I have so many stand-alone novels left to read, I found the storyline for this book quite compelling so I went for it instead. Ravka is a nation divided by the Shadow Fold, an area of darkness that hosts terrible creatures that feast on human…
There was a time when I was obsessed with Wiccan books. Any book that described anything about it would capture my interest. I don’t know when I stopped devouring books in that genre. This is the first “Wiccan” book I’ve read in a long time. And it was definitely a good one to start with!…
I had actually read a little teaser of this novel previously and had found it quite interesting. I was fortunate enough to land a copy of it to read recently so here is my review! Aoife Grayson lives in a world where machines and rationalism are dominant. Anyone who preaches against rationalism or who believes…
So I got my phone fixed yesterday, which is awesome because it makes writing reviews that much easier. With a tablet, the keyboard is awkward and difficult to use. But with a phone, things are a lot simpler. I am still looking for a new laptop so I’m sure when I buy one, I will…
I don’t have many friends who are avid readers like me. But when they recommend something for me to read, I do my best to give it a shot. Especially if they let me borrow their copy of the book, thereby saving me the trouble of waiting for it at the library. Which is exactly…
I’ve always loved The Wizard of Oz. I’ve watched the movie and I’ve even read Gregory Maguire’s books on Oz. So naturally, when I saw this book, I had to read it! Amy Gumm doesn’t have the most ideal life. Living in Kansas in a trailer with her drug-obsessed mom has made her grow up…
I have always loved this author. The first book I ever read by him was Coraline and it was just fantastic. Since then, I’ve been hunting for everything and anything by him and so far, I have yet to be disappointed. I just recently found out that this book has been turned into a movie…
I’ve heard a lot of controversial things about this book. Okay, maybe controversial is a strong word to use for a fantasy novel. What I mean to say is that many people have mixed feelings about this book. Quite a few of the reviews I read said it was terrible or that it was boring.…
I was looking for some more fantasy novels to read. Although I love mystery and psychological thrillers, I also enjoy a good old land-of-magic style of book. I vaguely recalled reading novels by this author so I decided to give this one a go. Talia lives in a village where women are simply breeders. Men…
