Save the king, save the island. I’m actually quite shocked that I enjoyed this book! This was only the second reverse harem I’ve ever read in my life, lol. But I do think this was a good one for a beginner to the genre because it’s not in your face smutty (which I am not a fan of) and it’s still got a great story! This book was a very quick and easy  (and fun!) read. There are no white […]

Holy. SHIT. Dude. This book. This is the kind of story I dream of finding every time I open a new book (and rarely find). This book GRABBED me from the very first page and never let go! I was hopelessly hooked, and I knew in the first handful of pages that this was going to be a 5 star read for me as well as a new favorite. And I was sooo not wrong! I fucking LOVED every single […]

If I could use one word to describe this book, it would be….gross. But like, in the most delightful way possible! (If you like gory stuff, that is. If you don’t, this book is absolutely not for you.) I love really dark disturbing shit, so this one was right up my alley! I loved how grotesque and gruesome this book was. I knew in the first chapter I was going to love that part of the story. And love it I […]

This was an atmospheric and entertaining read! I don’t have much to say about it other than I enjoyed it. The narration was really good – I found the narrator to be engaging and she did a great job bringing the story to life. The air of mystery kept me invested, and there were plenty of twists along the way to keep me on my toes. I like that things were revealed slowly, giving just enough to keep you intrigued […]

Holy shit, this book was insane!! I honestly have no idea, even after finishing, what was actually true and what wasn’t. The title is apt because there were so many lies you never knew what to believe! I’ve been seeking out more mystery thrillers lately, but I don’t have much experience with psychological thrillers. I ended up loving it because it totally fucks with your head. It started off a little slow, but once crazy things start happening, it grabs […]

I have very mixed feelings about this book. For one, it gets pretty fucking weird at one point (actually, it reminded me of the strange and trippy end of Interstellar, but like…on steroids) and I feel like there was too much going on. This book was a very ambitious attempt at a broad opera spanning timelines, a la Cloud Atlas and Sea of Tranquility. Actually, I’d just listened to the latter only about a month before I picked this one […]
