Review: Stormdancer by Jay Kristoff

I’ve been dying to get my hands on this book for months, and had to wait patiently (not) for my library to order it. Then I got it, and I was nervous to finally read it, because what if I got my hopes up too high? What if it wasn’t worth the hype? There were VERY mixed reviews on Goodreads, after all. Either love or hate, with almost nothing in between. I am extremely happy to say that I fell […]

Review: Days of Blood and Starlight by Laini Taylor

I am a priestess of a sandcastle in a land of dust and starlight. I don’t even know where to start! This book rocked my socks off, guys. It was just as good as (if not better than) Daughter of Smoke and Bone. Laini’s writing is dark and beautiful and paints a vivid picture of her stunning world. Days of Blood and Starlight enchanted me! I love Karou! I liked her even more in this book because you get to see […]
