Every once in a while, we stumble over a book that holds all the promise in the world; cursed princesses, witches, and an impossible task, and yet for some reason, we don’t connect with the story or the characters at all. Unfortunately, this exactly what happened to me with this book. While the idea behind […]

[Blog Tour] [Portia’s Review]: Mayhem by Estelle Laure
HMM. This one is hard to review. Tagged as a feminist mash-up of The Lost Boys and The Craft, I knew I had to read this. Those are two of my favorite cult classics. And it turns out its easy too see the resemblances…. Wayyyyyy to easy. Like, identical in many ways to The Lost […]
[Portia’s Review]: Twisted Circles (Secret Society #2) by Claire Contreras
Again, actual footage of me when Claire announced a 2nd book with Secret Societies (this is a throwback to my original review of the first book in the series, Half Truths <- click to read) : I could start this post off by raving about how amazing and wonderful and talented and pretty Claire Contreras […]
[Lisa’s Review]: Boyfriend Material by Alexis Hall
When I first read the synopsis, I immediately requested this one to review. Male on male, fake boyfriends and British humor – sign me up. But to be honest, I didn’t like it all that much. If I hadn’t had to review it and I’d believe in DNF’s, I probably would have put the book […]
[Skye’s Review]: What I Like About You by Marisa Kanter
What I Like About You is a cute story that will warm all book lovers’ hearts. The main character, Halle, runs her own book blog and has dreams of working in publishing (something we have probably all dreamed of at one point or another). Okay, let’s start off with some of my favorite things about […]
[Lisa’s Review]: Crown of Coral and Pearl by Mara Rutherford
Crown of Coral and Pearl is one of the best fantasy debuts I’ve read in 2019. While it didn’t knock Shelby Mahurin’s Serpent & Dove off my number one spot (if you haven’t read that one yet go read it), it’s a close second. Kiera Cass’ the Selection meets Holly Black’s the Cruel Prince – […]
[Asis’ Review] The Raven Boys by Maggie Stiefvater
“Have you heard of the legends of sleeping kings? The legends that heroes like Llewellyn and Glendower and Arthur aren’t really dead, but are instead sleeping in tombs, waiting to be woken?” The story is about a group of four boys (and a girl… eventually) that’s looking for the body of old Welsh King Glendower, […]
[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 […]
