I was already looking forward to this sequel, but after reading it I can honestly say it was better than I even expected! If you need a refresher on the first book before diving in, American Royals is an alternative history where George Washington decided to become King instead of President, starting a dynasty that […]
[Rachel’s Review: The Faithless Hawk by Margaret Owen]
Review I have A LOT of feelings about The Faithless Hawk by Margaret Owen. About 72 of them are just me senselessly screaming “AHHHHH” but let me try to organize some of my more coherent ones for you. I LOVED the Merciful Crow when I read it last year and was desperately waiting for the […]
[Rachel’s Review]: There Will Come a Darkness by Katy Rose Pool
Holy squad goals Batman, what the heck did I just read? This book was AMAZING with a unique magic system and a fantastic cast of characters. Honestly wish I could give it more than 5 stars. It’s like the author looked at all of us and was like: Ephyra, Beru, Anton, Jude and Hassan are […]
[Rachel’s Review]: Mexican Gothic by Silvia Moreno-Garcia
I finished this book two weeks ago and I still cannot stop thinking about it. I wasn’t a fan of Gods of Jade and Shadow by the same author so I almost didn’t pick up this book but DANG AM I GLAD I DID! The first 60 or so pages are a little slow, but […]
[Rachel’s Review]: Foul is Fair by Hannah Capin
First and foremost I would suggest reading the content warnings on Hannah Capin’s website to determine if this is a safe book for you. Although it is an amazing book and I do recommend it, it’s important to keep your own wellbeing in mind! I didn’t even hear about this book until about a week […]
[Rachel’s Review]: The Guinevere Deception by Kiersten White
Kiersten White has covered some of my favorite topics with Slayer (and upcoming Chosen!) diving deeper into the world of Buffy the Vampire Slayer and the eerie horror of The Dark Descent of Elizabeth Frankenstein taking the question of whether Frankenstein the doctor or the creation was more of a monster to new heights. So […]
[Rachel’s Review]: Chosen (Slayer #2) by Kiersten White
This is how you end a series folks!! Chosen is the second in Kiersten White’s Buffy the Vampire Slayer series, the first of which, titled “Slayer” came out in January 2019. I’m a simple girl, I see “Buffy the Vampire Slayer” and i’m on-board, no questions asked but this one knocked it out of the […]
[Rachel’s Review]: Would Like to Meet by Rachel Winters
Excuse me while I cry at how cute this whole book was! Well, actually it was a complete disaster that gave me secondhand embarrassment, but in the best possible way. This book took all the best rom-com tropes and mixed them all together in one hilarious and devastating love story. Evie Summers is a slightly […]
