Friends, saying this book took me by surprise would be an understatement. It’s been a while since I’ve read such a thought-provoking book. This book truly makes you think and feel. The Last True Poets of the Sea centers itself around darker, emotional themes such as grief, loss, pain, confusion, and fear of the unknown. […]

[Annmarie’s Review] Regretting You by Colleen Hoover
“Everything you do is epic, Clara. Which is why I never had the courage to approach you, because an epic girl needs an equally epic guy, and I Guess I’ve never felt epic enough for you.”
[Elizabeth’s Review]: Where I End and You Begin by Preston Norton
I’m writing this review literally ten minutes after finishing this book and all I can say is that I am an emotional mess. Where I End and You Begin— where do we end and begin? This book, I can’t seem to full capture how heartfelt and heartwarming this coming of age story is. What we’ve […]
[Rachel’s Review]: The Grace Year by Kim Liggett
I am still really struggling to determine my feelings on this one. Overall I enjoyed The Grace Year and would recommend it to fans of the Handmaid’s Tale and Lord of the Flies. I thought some parts of this were really strong and I liked the world-building, however, it was not clear how quickly time […]
[Bre’s Review]: Into the Crooked Place by Alexandra Christo
“Trust no one, betray everyone.Kill or be killed, always.” This book has been compared to Six of Crows. And while they are both about a group of kids going on a mission, the resemblance stops there. This book isn’t about a group of misfit friends. I would call them a gang of acquaintances at best […]

[Victoria’s Review]: Serpent & Dove by Shelby Mahurin
There are a few key words that, whenever I see them combined to describe a new or new-to-me book, automatically guarantees that that book shall shoot straight to the top of my TBR or Most Anticipated Lists. Witches. France/French/Francophile. Enemies-to-Lovers. There are others of course (dragons come to mind), but needless to say, all I […]
[Skye’s Review]: The Burning Shadow by Jennifer L. Armentrout
Jennifer Armentrout’s writing is addicting. I’ve read 90% of the books she has written, and I plan on reading the rest. Her stories never fail to entertain me. The characters are always funny and witty. The romances are swoon-worthy. Throw in a great plot and what else could you ask for? The Burning Shadow picks […]
