Sawkill Girls by Claire Legrand

Thank you to Edelweiss and the publisher for this eARC in exchange for my honest review. My first encounter with Claire Legrand was when I read the book Furyborn. I absolutely loved it and I’m still eagerly anticipating the sequel. In the meantime, I found out that Legrand was releasing another novel and I knew…

Freshwater by Akwaeke Emezi

I first heard about this book from fellow blogger Evelina from Avalinah’s Books. She had a raving review for this book and since our tastes are similar, I was eager to try this one out! You can check out her review here, but these are my thoughts: Summary (Goodreads): Ada begins her life in the…

The English Wife by Lauren Willig

I saw this book and was immediately drawn by its beautiful cover. And after I read the premise of this story, I knew that I had to give it a shot. It has been so long since I’ve read a historical fiction novel, and this was the perfect chance for me to get back into…

Tess of the Road by Rachel Hartman

I read Seraphina a while back and I fell in love. It had dragons and court life and great world-building. It was definitely very different from most fantasy stories I’ve read but I enjoyed it immensely. When I saw that LibraryThing was hosting an Early Reviewer giveaway for Tess of the Road, I immediately jumped at the chance,…

The Big Lie by Julie Mayhew

I received this novel as an advance copy from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. I love novels on alternative history. It’s always interesting to ask “what would the world have been like if this had happened instead of this”? It is so easy to take for granted the life we have, and to…

Woman No. 17 by Edan Lepucki

I received this novel as an advanced copy from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. I was attracted to this novel first by its cover and then by the premise. I usually try not to be a book snob but sometimes I go by face value. And let me just say that whoever designed…

Goblin by Ever Dundas

I received this novel as an advanced copy from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. When I read a premise that is just straight-up weird, I can’t resist the urge to read the book. The premise itself becomes the mystery and my curiosity won’t let me rest until I discover what it is all…

The Roanoke Girls by Amy Engel

There are a few books that capture your interest right away just with their cover and title. That was my experience with this novel. Without even having read the synopsis, I knew I wanted to read this novel. When I received the ARC of it, I was ecstatic and jumped right in without reading the…

The End of Alice by A.M Jones

When I told my roommate what this novel was all about, she gave me a look filled with disgust and said “I have no idea how you can stomach reading this kind of stuff.” In all honesty, I get that look a lot. I don’t always read books that are “normal” or “safe”. It’s not…

Don’t Tell Anyone by Eleanor Gray

I received this novel as an advanced copy from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. I am currently swamped with tons and tons of work, which is equally matched by tons and tons of books to read. I am going to do my best to get through everything at a steady pace, so hopefully…
