It was so easy to fall in love with A Court of Thorns and Roses! It was an insanely quick and easy book to read, despite being 432 pages. I read it in one sitting and the time flew right by! A Court of Thorns […]

Review: A Wicked Thing by Rhiannon Thomas
A Wicked Thing is my favourite fairy tale retelling in a long time! It felt like a breath of fresh air. It kept pretty true to the Sleeping Beauty story I knew, but it breathed some fresh life into it. There were subtle (and not […]
Cress by Marissa Meyer
I don’t even know how to review this book. I feel like it’s already so well established that the entire Lunar Chronicles series is amazing… because it is. And I promise, Cress is no different! This book rocks super hard. What else is there to […]
Strands of Bronze and Gold by Jane Nickerson

Persephone by Kaitlin Bevis
Wow, this book was absolutely awesome! It was everything I hoped it would be. Persephone is perfect for all fans of Greek mythology. It’s a really unique take on the story of Persephone, and the book itself was un-put-down-able! I will admit that Persephone wasn’t […]
Cinder by Marissa Meyer
Oh my god, this book is amazing! This is the kind of book you never want to end because it’s just so… amazing! It’s fresh, original, and totally unique. It meshes two completely different worlds — fairy tales and machinery/science — and it does so […]
