I think it’s time for me to come to terms with the fact that Stephanie Garber is not for me. Caraval was just okay for me – pretty meh, but not bad – and I outright hated Legendary. I got tricked by the hype monster yet again, because this spin off series is WILDLY popular. So, I went in with rather high hopes. Why can’t I just like the stuff that everyone else likes?! It seems like every time there’s […]

Wow, I did not expect to love this book so much! I am not a non-fiction reader. I can count the number of non-fic books I’ve read in my entire life on one hand. In fact, I even know exactly which ones they are – Half Assed by Jeanette Fulda and Cultish by Amanda Montell. I did read a short self help book maybe a year ago, but I don’t even remember the name of it because it wasn’t very […]

Full disclosure: I almost didn’t read this. The first time I picked it up I was bored out of my mind with the politics and I DNFed it. It took me years, but I finally decided to give it another shot! I think listening to the audio really helped, honestly. It was much easier to get through this time around! It was still pretty slow in the beginning, but the last half really picked up. And THAT ENDING!!! I never knew […]

I had really high hopes for this book. (Also, that cover is STUNNING!!) While it didn’t quite live up to my expectations, I did still enjoy it for the most part. The world was interesting – I liked the dark academia setting and the structure of the society. However, I didn’t care a whole lot for the romance. (And I say romance loosely; it’s not romantic at all, it’s purely sexual.) I’m usually a hardcore fan of morally grey MMCs, […]

Wow. I’m sorry to say that I absolutely hated this book. It’s got a pretty low rating on Goodreads, but I didn’t let that stop me because there are a few books I rated 4 or 5 stars that have a low average rating – sometimes my little black sheep heart works in my favor. Sadly, I was not the black sheep this time. This book is just…not good. I don’t like to say books are bad – I would […]

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 […]
