I can't write books so I review them instead
So this should come as no surprise to many people, considering my lack of activity on my blog. To be honest, I feel really sad making this post. I have always loved blogging and writing up my book reviews. Having to admit that I need to go on a break really sucks. But I need…
Yeah, that’s right. You read the title correctly. I’m going to say it loud and proud: I SUPPORT BOOK POLYGAMY! But seriously, what does this mean? According to Goodreads, you can either be a book monogamist or a book polygamist. This refers to how many books you read at one time. If you are a…
I first heard about this book from fellow blogger Evelina from Avalinah’s Books. She had a raving review for this book and since our tastes are similar, I was eager to try this one out! You can check out her review here, but these are my thoughts: Summary (Goodreads): Ada begins her life in the…
Representation and diversity in books has become a major focus point these days. Growing up, I hadn’t really thought about the fact that books generally featured a certain stereotypical character. With the amount of diversity and acceptance that is taking place in our society, it is important that this change in direction is reflected in…

This novel sounded super interesting to me and I wanted to see if it would be different from other novels dealing with marriage in the thriller category. Here are my thoughts: Goodreads (Summary): Before…
I’M SO SORRY FOR MISSING A WEEK FOR MY DISCUSSION POST! I am literally on the last leg of my Masters and everywhere I turn, there is a time crunch for something. I’ve had to prioritize my school work over my blogging and reading (which is definitely not something I like) and am all over…
I rarely ever read nonfiction books. But this one … well, it wasn’t one I could pass. An autobiography, the author explores her harrowing childhood journey in war-torn Rwanda. Thank you to the First to Read program for this eARC in exchange for my honest review. Summary (Goodreads): Clemantine Wamariya was six years old when…
Thank you to Edelweiss and the publishers for this eARC in exchange for my honest review. When I first read Dumplin’, I absolutely adored it. It was by far one of my favourite teen books and its focus on body image and body positivity was absolutely fantastic. I was super excited to hear about this novel,…
