Back to Bastian we go! Adrienne has ushered us back to Bastian with a protagonist so clever and cunning I couldn’t put this book down! I have always had a deep love for Adrienne’s strong female characters and Bryn Roth is no exception. She is a fierce, intelligent chameleon, able to meld herself into whatever […]
YA Romance
[Lisa’s Review]: Grace and Glory (The Harbinger #3) by Jennifer L. Armentrout
I don’t even know where to start with this one: it’s no secret that Jen’s Harbinger series is one of my all-time favorites. Add the knock-you-on-your-ass ending of Rage and Ruin on top of that, and you can imagine my excitement upon receiving this particular ARC a couple of weeks ago. I read the entire […]
[Nadine’s Review]: Better Than the Movies by Lynn Painter
“Enemies-to-lovers—it’s our trope, Buxbaum.” I ABSOLUTELY adored Painter’s cute as hell YA rom-com, Better Than the Movies!! It’s a rom-com about rom-com cliches, with two childhood frienemies, fake dating, lots of lol moments – what more could I have asked for?! Nothing. I didn’t expect to enjoy it as much as I actually did and […]
[Elizabeth’s Review]: Prom Theory by Ann LaBar

[Elizabeth’s Review]: Bookish and the Beast by Ashley Poston
This is the third book in Ashley Poston’s Once Upon a Con series, and I was so excited to see that it was a modern retelling of Beauty and the Beast! This book revolves around Rosie Thorne, who is grieving her mother’s death and trying her best to navigate a new reality in her absence. […]
[Elizabeth’s Review]: “Today Tonight Tomorrow” by Rachel Lynn Solomon
To start off, I have to say that this book has become one of my top 3 reads of not only 2020 but pretty much of all time! I read this book in a span of hours and finished it around five in the morning and was so giddy that I could not fall asleep. […]
[Elizabeth’s Review]: The Dark Tide by Alicia Jasinska
I like to think Alicia Jasinska read Beauty and the Beast and thought: let’s make our beast a QUEEN and let’s make it dark. And I was totally and completely about it. This book focuses on two POVs: Lina Kirk and Queen Eva and they each have something to prove. The dynamic between Lina and […]
[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.”
