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 – […]

[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 […]
[Lisa’s Review]: Seasons of the Storm (Seasons of the Storm #1) by Elle Cosimano
Seasons of the Storm is a unique, exciting, and action-packed tale about personified seasons, starcrossed lovers, and the power of friendship. I went into this book knowing the bare minimum but loved the idea of personified seasons, and each respective season killing their predecessor each year form the get-go. Throw forbidden romance in there, and […]

[Lisa’s Review]: Up Close and Personal by Kathryn Freeman
Here’s the thing: on a superficial level, Up Close and Personal is a sweet, entertaining, gender-swapped version of “The Bodyguard”. The plot is interesting enough even if predictable, and the characters are charming. What made me request this book is obviously the non-traditional distribution of roles. I’ve read my fair share of bodyguard romances and […]
[Lisa’s Review]: The Dare (Briar U #4) by Elle Kennedy
The Dare is the fourth and last installment of the Briar U series, and I have to say I’m sad that we’re done with the series. I could literally read Elle Kennedy’s hockey romances all day every day. While this one is not my favorite in the series, I absolutely loved it. Elle stays true […]
[Skye’s Review]: The Court of Miracles (A Court of Miracles #1) by Kester Grant
I have mixed feelings about The Court of Miracles. On one hand, it was a super easy read. I flew through the book. However, if I hadn’t had to review it, then it would have been easy to put it down without feeling an immense need to pick it back up to see what happens […]
