I can't write books so I review them instead
BookTok got me on the hype train with a novel that promises stunning insights into Ethiopian culture and vampires. Unfortunately, this book just didn’t hit it for me. But before I get into what I didn’t like, let me speak about a few positives: In this novel, Kidan and Susenyos brilliantly execute the enemy-to-lovers trope.…
A girl who can speak to gods must save her people without destroying herself. A prince in danger must decide who to trust. A boy with a monstrous secret waits in the wings. Together, they must assassinate the king and stop the war. In a centuries-long war where beauty and brutality meet, their three paths…
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…
I have been sooooo excited to read this book, considering how much I adored The Cruel Prince! This book has also been highly anticipated by many Holly Black fans and others in the book community, so the hype was definitely there. I waited quite a while to read this book (even though the anticipation was KILLING…

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…
As I wait for the sequel to The Cruel Prince to be released, I decided to check out other books by this author. I was really happy to find that the author has written many standalone books, because I’m not sure if I’m up for the commitment of a series right now – I have far…
