[Skye’s Review]: Star Daughter by Shveta Thakrar

Star Daughter felt unique and different from most books that have been published recently. It showcases how amazing Hindu mythology is, and it has a diverse cast of characters. I love that publishers are publishing diverse books. We need more representation in publishing, and this book is a step in the right direction. It gives […]

[Asis’ Review] SISTERS OF SWORD AND SONG by Rebecca Ross

Rebecca Ross is for sure one of my favorite authors of all time. And this book went beyond anything I expected. After reading both this and The Queen’s Rising duology, I can clearly see her style in themes and writing, and I am becoming a huge addict to both. This book really astonishes with the […]

[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 […]

[Skye’s Review]: The Boundless (The Beholder #2) by Anna Bright

This duology satisfies my fairytale craving. This duology feels as if it’s a love letter to fairytales. The author incorporates fairytales throughout both books in different ways. Sometimes it’s the mention of a character from a popular story we’ve all heard. Sometimes it’s simply the lessons fairytales teach us and the deeper meaning of each […]

[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 […]

[Elizabeth’s Review]: Serpent & Dove by Shelby Mahurin

Now, can I just say. . . . . This book, I can’t even begin to describe in the appropriate words how much I LOVED this entire narrative and plot and characters and everything. Just, everything. One word does come to mind though and that is: GRAY Let me explain. The world or storytelling isn’t […]

[Elizabeth’s Review]: Our Year in Love and Parties by Karen Hattrup

Review Time!! Here’s the thing…..I absolutely LOVED this book. Okay okay, you probably want to know WHY I loved this book, the entire point of the review. So let’s break it down. In the book, we have our two main characters: Tucker and Erika. Now, there is a small age difference (teeny-tiny), but Erika is […]
