I can't write books so I review them instead
The first thing that caught my attention with this book was its title. If you have ever watched or read The Princess Bride, then you know EXACTLY what I’m referencing! I for sure thought the author would put that in somewhere in the story. But the story itself is very interesting, and that’s what made me…
Synopsis (Goodreads): When Mahony returns to Mulderrig, a speck of a place on Ireland’s west coast, he brings only a photograph of his long-lost mother and a determination to do battle with the village’s lies. His arrival causes cheeks to flush and arms to fold in disapproval. No one in the village – living or dead…
When I saw the cover for this book and I read the synopsis, I thought this would be the one for me. However, it failed to please. This story takes place in Shalingar, a kingdom ruled by Princess Amrita’s father. It is an idyllic kingdom, with plenty of resources and a fair and just ruler…
I was so tempted to read this story because of its allusions to the fae. I love anything to do with the fair folk and I never resist the opportunity to read something that takes place in that world. This novel not only had that, but it also had a very interesting story. Here is…
I recently decided to try out a subscription book box called Page Habit. It is based in America but ships internationally. What drew me to this subscription company was the fact that they give subscribers new releases that have annotated notes from the author plus all sorts of bookish goodies to enjoy. I also love…
This year, I challenged myself to read 300 books. I am pleased to note that I exceeded this amount by 58 books for a total of 358 novels! I wanted to take a moment to highlight some of my favorite books of the year! So let’s go! A God in the Shed by J. F.…
Merry Christmas! To celebrate this festive holiday, here is a novel that is all about the Christmas spirit! Here is my review: 5 years ago on Christmas Eve, Holly was visited by 3 ghosts who showed her how selfish and spoiled she was to try to get her to mend her ways. She didn’t. And…
Yay for urban fantasy stories featuring witches! I really wanted to get myself into a short book, and what better way than to read a novella? When a supermarket wants to build a major branch, the villagers of Lychford are divided. Some are open to the prospect of new employment opportunities, while some object to…
By far, this was one of the most interesting premises for a teen fiction novel that I have seen this month. It reminded me a lot of the tv show Supernatural, which used to be one of my favorite things to binge-watch. Getting a chance to read something similar to it was so exciting! Here is…
This was a novel I have been most excited to read and I wanted to make sure I would get the chance to read it before the year ends. I love magical realism and I love the idea of changeling children even more. It doesn’t hurt that the cover is really beautiful! Anyways, here is…
