[Lisa’s Review]: Half-Blood (Covenant #1) by Jennifer L. Armentrout

I’m currently re-reading this series, and I’m only now getting around to writing this down, but here’s what I remember from the day I stumbled over this series: I remember reading the synopsis for this book, thinking, holy crap, I have to read this right freaking now. Greek mythology, badass female warrior, and romance that […]

[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 – […]

It’s hands down the best book I’ve read this year, and definitely one of her best books to date. From epic fight scenes, over swoon-worthy men to strong female characters and steamy […]

[Bre’s Review]: Neat by Kandi Steiner

“…like the lotus flower born from the mud, we must embrace the darkest parts of ourselves to become our most beautiful selves.” I am so in love with this book and already know that it will become a regular in my re-read pile. This modern day Romeo and Juliet story pulled me in and convinced […]

Best YA Debut of 2019 I’m calling it now: Serpent & Dove is my favorite book of 2019. Hands down, this book is also the best debut of 2019. Shelby Mahurin hit it out of the park. This debut has something for everyone. Allow me to enlighten you.  These people will enjoy this book: ~Enemies […]
