The After Party by Anton DiSclafani

I’ve had my eye out for this novel for a while now. It was on a list of anticipated bestsellers before its release and after reading the premise, I was quite interested in giving it a shot. This novel is not my usual style but it had gotten so much advance praise that I couldn’t…

Born Mobster by Paige Dearth

I received this novel as an advanced copy from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. I usually don’t read novels like this one. I don’t like sad novels or ones that have graphic depictions, especially if it’s regarding constant physical or sexual abuse. But I was given this novel to read and I felt…

The Best Friend by Shalini Boland

Thank you to the author and publisher for providing me with an advanced copy of this novel in exchange for an honest review! When I find an author whose work I like, I try to read more books by them, even if they aren’t part of a series. In a way, I want to see…

It Takes One by Kate Kessler

This novel was given to me as an advanced copy from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. I’m back to my usual genre of mysteries and thrillers. As usual, I found one with an irresistible premise and just had to give it a shot. Here is my review: Audrey Harte is a criminal psychologist…

I love novels that have really weird and interesting settings or timelines. When I read the premise for Smoke, this quality is what made me want to read it. I don’t want to give much more away so here is my review: This story takes place in an alternate England a century ago, where people…

Every Heart A Doorway by Seanan McGuire

I really don’t want to give this book an introduction, like I do for all of my other blog posts. This novel stuck with me in such a strong way that I just want to jump right in and give you my review. So here it is: There have been countless stories – both written…

Paradise City by Elizabeth Day

I can’t recall the last novel I read that was just realistic fiction. I read so many science fiction and fantasy and thrillers these days that all of the titles and plots that come to mind are from these three genres. This novel was my attempt to even the score (even though I’m pretty sure…

Morningstar by Pierce Brown – Red Rising #3

Yes! I finished the series! It might have taken me forever but I have done it! And to celebrate this accomplishment, here is my review! Darrow is alive but just barely. Betrayed by those he trusted the most, he finds himself broken and lost. But the Sons of Ares still need him. His people still…
