What I liked: Very cool setting! It starts in London and moves to Hungary. Plus we see a few other places along the way (Austria). It was really interesting how magic was intertwined with the class system. The rich get magic, the poor do not. […]

Addicted to Space Travel Books
I have been on one hell of a science fiction binge lately and it all started with Illuminae. I’ve actually had an ARC of Illuminae sitting around since BookExpo America 2015. I just never read it. I think I was intimidated by two things: The […]
I Didn’t Love Hunted – It Was Weird :(
Hunted was the first 2017 book I read, and not liking it was hugely disappointing. 🙁 Not for me This was solidly a case of “not for me”. I don’t think Hunted was objectively bad, and I’m not going to tell anyone to avoid it. […]
A Romance That Takes Place in Tokyo! (Review: Seven Days of You)
Seven Days of You was… okay. To be honest, I think Tokyo was my favourite part about it. The setting added something extra to the book, and I think without that unique element it would have gotten a lower rating from me. The very nature […]
Long May She Reign by Rhiannon Thomas
Facts: Long May She Reign is not really a romance. There are a few bits and pieces, but it’s ultimately sooo not the focus of the story, which is kind of appropriate. It seemed like it would be a fantasy book, but it’s not really. […]
Draaaagons! (The Dragon’s Price by Bethany Wiggins)
WHAT A COOL IDEA!! ^ That’s the #1 thing I have to say about The Dragon’s Price. I looove the idea of this book. There are so many cool and exciting concepts! I won’t tell you about the most epic thing, because it’s not in […]
If You’re in the Mood for Something Warm and Fuzzy: By Your Side by Kasie West
Love love love! By Your Side was exactly what I wanted when I read it: adorable, warm, fun, and a little fluffy. Did I mention warm? The book actually talks a lot about the cold but something about reading it all snuggled up under blankets […]
I Fell in Love With a Fantasy Series! (just like I hoped!)
When I talked about my reading goals for 2017 I said I wanted to fall in love with a new fantasy series… and I already have! Funnily enough, I also said this in that same post: “I’ve actually just started The Demon King, so it’s […]
Frostblood by Elly Blake (I should have loved it but I didn’t)
Objectively, Frostblood ticked so many boxes that should have made me fall in love with it. But sadly, that’s not what happened. The book missed out on that connection. I never really got invested in the characters or story. The world building was kind of […]
Series Review: Queen of the Tearling (no spoilers!)
It took me long enough, but I finally finished The Queen of the Tearling series! This post doesn’t contain spoilers for any of the books, so you can safely read everything here even if you haven’t read the first one yet (just skip reading the […]
