I was a big believer in absolute honesty: say what you mean, mean what you say, and don’t ask a question if you don’t want to know the answer. Buckle up, ya’ll because this review may be long winded. I will honestly say that when I first got this ARC last year, I wasn’t entirely […]

[Asis’ Review] Watch Over Me by Mila Gray
Book CW: Domestic abuse. Probably what I can highlight the most about this book was the dynamic between the family. Seeing how this situation affected each of them in a different way, how they all grew individually and as a family as well… it was very inspiring and heartwarming. The little brother had me very […]
[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 […]
[Skye’s Review]: Girls of Storm and Shadow by Natasha Ngan
“Because it’s what I am. Not a Paper Girl anymore, just ‘girl’–almost a caste of its own. An oppressed caste, yes, but one braver and bolder and capable of more brilliance than any other in this world.” This book explores two main concepts: the effects of trauma and doing horrible things in the name of […]
[Alexandra’s Review] Love Her or Lose Her by Tessa Bailey

As Tessa Bailey mentions in her Acknowledgments, she was inspired by her own life, adding in her amazing talent in crafting […]

[Asis’ Review] All Fired Up by Lori Foster
I read this book with no memory of the synopsis whatsoever so I really had no clue what I was in for. For starters, I need to say what stood out to me the most, which is that the characters could’ve been better developed. I feel like that was the main thing that affected this […]
[Rachel’s Review]: All-American Muslim Girl by Nadine Jolie Courtney
There are very few books that actually make me cry at the end but this is definitely one of them. All-American Muslim Girl is equal parts heart-wrenching and heartwarming and has such an important message for the current political climate: acceptance. Acceptance of oneself, one’s religion and one’s culture. Allie’s exploration of her faith and […]
