[Gabrielle’s Reviews]: The Bright & The Pale
Going into reading this book, I had pretty neutral expectations. As an avid YA reader, it takes a lot for me to be surprised with books in the genre. I had hopes that something crazy and different and unexpected would happen as I read, and to be honest I was a little disappointed. For about […]
Krysten’s Review | The HOOK by Jenny Hickman
“Hopeful that you could love me the way I love you.” “What way is that?” He whispered, “To the point of madness.” Cue: Wonder by Shawn Mendes It’s a short while after the ending of The PAN and I must say that I am glad to be back at Kensington Academy and even happier to […]
Krysten’s Review | The PAN by Jenny Hickman
Cue: Lost Boy by Ruth B “𝐅𝐥𝐲 𝐚𝐰𝐚𝐲, 𝐥𝐨𝐬𝐭 𝐛𝐨𝐲. 𝐈’𝐦 𝐧𝐨𝐭 𝐥𝐨𝐨𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐝 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐛𝐥𝐞.” Maybe it’s my love of Disney or my desire to escape to Neverland. Maybe it’s the intrigue of lost boys or the idea of flying into an adventure but I think the real reason I couldn’t put […]

[Marie’s Review]: A Pho Love Story by Loan Le
I will pretty much jump at any chance to read a book written with and for the Vietnamese American experience and A Pho Love Story is no exception. This romantic comedy is a cute twist on the Romeo & Juliet trope – if Romeo and Juliet were Vietnamese American young adults whose parents own rival […]
[Asis’ Review] INSTANT KARMA by Marissa Meyer
I have wanted to read this book ever since I found out about it. I adore Marissa’s writing and that is no secret, it’s completely immersive and beautiful, and once I start it is hard to stop. That was no different in this book. I don’t want to make this statement because it’s been a […]
[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 […]
