Children of Blood and Bone deals with some really heavy, intense issues. There are huge topics like privilege, family vs “what’s right”, oppression, and more. It’s not a lighthearted book, and that’s what I loved about it.
February 2018 book haul, new kitten, and the two exciting 2018 releases I didn’t finish :(
These are all the new physical books I got in February! It’s not as epic as my January book haul, but it’s still pretty awesome. This is the end of my crazy book-buying spree though so I know March won’t be anywhere near this big. […]
The City of Brass by S.A. Chakraborty
I’m really disappointed that I didn’t love The City of Brass like I wanted to. It was such a cool setting and the main character was pretty great, but sadly I think information overload weighed me down and massively affected my enjoyment of the book.
Review: To Kill a Kingdom by Alexandra Christo
To Kill a Kingdom was everything it promised: sirens, kingdoms at war, enemies falling in love, and an interesting look at nature vs nurture.

Honor Among Thieves was a good book (and OMG look at that cover!) but sadly I didn’t really connect with it the way I hoped I would. This led to me being indifferent about the book overall. I didn’t love it, but I didn’t hate […]
January 2018 book haul and wrap-up
January was such an awesome month! I got tons of new books and almost every book I read was fabulous. Hopefully February will be just as good. 😉 New books! Above is my physical book haul. It’s pretty insane! This is definitely not going to […]
Review: The Queen’s Rising by Rebecca Ross
The Queen’s Rising is an interesting kingdom/rebellion story, which thankfully reads like a standalone!
15 books that have been in my to-be-read pile for over two years
If you’re a fellow bookworm then odds are you have a huge pile (or several shelves!) of books that you haven’t read yet. Below are 15 books that have been in my TBR pile for at least two years (some far longer!). 1) Bitterblue (Graceling […]
