I can't write books so I review them instead
One thing I need to learn to stop doing is jumping at a book because it has a gorgeous cover. Take, for instance, Ever the Hunted. Look at this cover and tell me it isn’t pretty: I saw this cover and immediately wanted to read it. It promised to be an interesting story. It was not.…
Over the years, I have become a big fan of Alice Hoffman. Regardless of the genre, she manages to produce a story that will leave a mark on the reader. Of the 4 books I’ve read in the past, every single one has been absolutely stunning. I approached this novel excited to see how she…
Although I’ve heard of Laini Taylor, I’ve never read anything by her. I’ve seen loads of posts about her Daughter of Smoke and Bone series, and while I’ve been intrigued, I just haven’t found the time to get into it. However, I couldn’t resist this novel. The cover was gorgeous and the synopsis was too good to pass…
When I first read The Bone Witch by Rin Chupeco, I absolutely adored it. I love that it reminded me of Memoirs of a Geisha – but with a fantasy twist! I was excited to see where the author would go with the second book, considering that The Bone Witch ended on a cliffhanger … so here is…

I received this novel as an advance copy from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. This was a book that I really wanted to finish back in January … but I fell behind. However, I made it one of my top priorities for this month and got on this book as soon as possible!…
I received this novel as an advance copy from the publisher via Netgalley in exchange for my honest review. I don’t read much historical fiction. But I really enjoyed reading Marie Benedict’s The Other Einstein. I love how the author focuses the attention on the female character instead of the popular male historical figure. I wanted…
If you love teen fantasy, you have probably heard about this book. Every where I look, I hear or see some reference about this book. My bookstagram account is blowing up with posts featuring Everless. All of this attention made me really curious as to what the story was all about – so I decided to…
I received this short story in my first PageHabit subscription box and I was super excited to read it. As you may know, I don’t read a lot of short stories. But I’m trying to change that where possible, and this seemed like the perfect opportunity! Synopsis (back of the book): Emil was a shepherd who…
