a deadly education | naomi novik

Hey everyone! Such a long time no see! I hope you all have been having a wonderful holiday season ❤ For my house, my husband has been sick since the end of November (went to an urgent care, but couldn't find the reason) and then we both got sick right over Christmas. Not fun, especially...

wishtress | nadine brandes

Nadine Brandes, also known as one of the sweetest and most relatable authors ever, has marked herself as one of my favorite authors. Specifically, her book Romanov, which I have read, like, a lot of times. 😛 (This may have something to do with next week's post... 👀) Wishtress is her newest book coming out...

these violent delights | chloe gong

I started this book sometime last summer, but as always it became overdue and I had to return it before I could finish it. Such is the way of a bookworm's life. It was definitely a book that I wanted to get back to -- I found myself thinking about it constantly lol. Then came...

The Raven Boys | review | Maggie Stiefvater

Good morning, everyone! I hope you all have a desk plant - or fake desk plant - to keep you happy this Tuesday! 😁 I would like to start off with saying, wow. I have read The Raven Boys multiple times (over many years) and I've never review it?? I have failed as a bookworm....

Hey everyone! I want to say that I seriously hope that you have all been staying safe during this COVID pandemic. I know everyone is saying that and that at this point it might come across as cheesy - but I'm genuinely serious. Sending prayers out to you and all of your loved ones! On...

Neverworld Wake | review | Marisha Pessl

Hey guys! So. I was at my local library (where I spend a reasonable amount of time there, ie all of my time) and I just randomly picked this book up: Neverworld Wake by Marisha Pessl. It is a magical realism mystery book and oh my stars, is it fantastic. I don't know how many...

Wolf Children: Ame & Yuki

Hello lovelies! Now, I don't usually review mangas. Perhaps that's because - even though I like them - I don't read them a lot. Or their not the "typical" book. I dunno. But I don't usually. But at current, I haven't finished many new books (I'm reading some monster tomes + rereading faves) to review...

Mini Review! (Lacy – Jaye L Knight)

A Conjuring of Light | review | VE Schwab

Hey lovelies! I hope that you all are doing well! I'm pretty okay. School's almost done (fantastic). Working a lot more (less fantastic). But that's enough about me! Today I'm reviewing A Conjuring of Light (VE Schwab). For those of you who don't know, this is the third and final book in the Shades of...
