Red Rising: Sons of Ares #1 by Pierce Brown

Pierce Brown is the author of the Red Rising series, which consists of Red Rising, Golden Son, Morning Star, and soon, Iron Gold. I actually read the first 3 books of the series and found them to be quite interesting, and I’m looking forward to reading the latest installment when it comes out. I had no idea that the…

The City of Brass by S. A. Chakraborty

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…

The Twilight Pariah by Jeffrey Ford

I was feeling in the mood for a horror story and this short novel, with its creepy cover and even creepier premise, seemed like the right fit. I grabbed it from the library and read it in just over 2 hours. Here is my review: Maggie, Russell, and Henry have been friends for a long…

The Changeling by Victor LaValle

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…

The Night the Lights Went Out by Karen White

This novel was definitely not something I would normally pick. But the cover and title were just too alluring and I decided to get out of my comfort zone. Here is my review: Recently divorced, Merilee Talbot Dunlap moves with her two children to Sweet Apple, Georgia. All she wants is to start her life…

The Chalk Man by C. J Tudor

Thank you to NetGalley, Penguin Random House and the First to Read program for this ARC in exchange for my honest review. I read the premise of this novel and immediately knew it was for me. Now, I say this phrase a lot, and often times I find myself disappointed. That was not the case…

White Tears by Hari Kunzru

I had no idea what to expect when I got into this novel. But after reading it, I can honestly say that it has defied any expectations I might have had. Here is my review: Seth is awkward and shy. Carter is the heir to one of America’s top fortunes. They really should never have…

Emma in the Night by Wendy Walker

I received this novel as an advance copy from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. I had previously tried to read a book by this same author called All is Not Forgotten. While its premise had been interesting, I found I couldn’t get myself to get through the novel. However, I thought that this novel…

This Is Not Over by Holly Brown

When I first read the premise of this novel, it reminded me of an experience I’d had with airbnb. It was my first time renting and I really wanted to make sure I adhered to all of the rules that the homeowner had set. However, I was shocked to find out that I had been…

Ready Player One by Ernest Cline

I’ll be the first to admit that this book is completely out of my comfort zone. I have never read a book about virtual reality. In fact, I’ve never even played a video game. It’s not like I have avoided these things on purpose. Growing up, my parents bought me a lot of books and…
