I don’t know why I waited so long to read this book, it was so fun! It was kind of a mash up of The 100 (season 7 specifically), Skyrim, and Tomb Raider. I loved the setting being on another planet in an alien temple full of puzzles. So cool! Those scenes made me want to play Skyrim! The world was absolutely my favorite part of this book and I had no problem picturing it all in my head. I […]

I hadn’t heard of this book before until I was searching for books narrated by Bahni Turpin (one of my fave narrators!) and this popped up. It sounded intriguing…and it was! It was a weird but fascinating read, unlike anything I’ve ever read before. I never read Annihilation, but I did see the movie, and it was also weird AF but also interesting and unusual. I wasn’t a huge fan of the writing style, but the premise is so unique […]

I had seen the movie already, so I almost didn’t pick this book up. And while reading, I kept thinking that I was wasting my time because it was basically exactly how I remembered the movie (I’ll get to that misconception in a minute!). I did enjoy it for the most part, though! The writing style was really juvenile – this feels a lot more like MG than YA – but the story itself is good. I confess that I […]

When the publisher sent me a copy of this, I had never even heard of it. I wasn’t super interested, because I’m not usually a fan of witch books. However, when I saw that it had Celtic mythology, I was super intrigued! I knew next to nothing going into this, and I ended up being pleasantly surprised! I was really drawn in by the prose from the very beginning! I really enjoyed the writing style – it was engaging and […]

Anyone who knows me knows that I am not a fan of contemporary and I rarely read it. Actually, this was my first contemporary romance all year, oops. I needed a break from my High Fantasy rut (and reading slump) and this was just the book for it since it’s set at Christmastime! It’s not something I’d usually have looked twice at, but Disney sent me a copy a while back, and then it showed up in my suggestions when I […]

“We’ve inherited the darkest legacy, but they don’t know that we’ve learned how to thrive in shadows and create our own light.” The Darkest Minds trilogy is one of my all time favorite series, so I was thrilled to see Alexandra bringing some of my all time fave characters back for another round! I was excited to read through Zu’s perspective, I loved her in the originals. And it was positively wonderful to step back into the thrilling and cinematic world […]
