[Lisa’s Review:] Blood and Honey (Serpent and Dove #2) by Shelby Mahurin
Shelby Mahurin’s Serpent & Dove was one of my favorite books in 2019, and hands down one of the best debuts I had read in a long time. Naturally, reading the sequel was a no brainer, and all I can say is get ready folks! Shelby once again managed to completely pull me into her […]
[Lisa’s Review:] Set Fire to the Gods (Set Fire to the Gods #1) by Sara Raasch & Kristen Simmons
Gladiator meets the Last Airbender. Sarah Raasch & Kristen Simmon’s Set Fire to the Gods is a solid start into their eponymous new young adult fantasy series, in which gladiators settle wars between their gods in arena fights with elemental magic. The sort of ancient greek slash roman world-building drew me in from the get-go. […]
[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. […]
[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 – […]
[Lisa’s Review]: The Dark Tide by Alicia Jasinska
Here’s the thing: every once in a while, there’s a book that seemingly has everything you could ever wish for, and has all the promise in the world and yet for whatever reason, you can’t connect to the story and the characters in the way you wanted to or thought you would. And unfortunately, this […]
[Lisa’s Review]: There Will Come a Darkness by Katy Rose Pool
There Will Come a Darkness is a solid fantasy debut that follows multiple characters through a well-established world of magic, prophecies, deceit, and political intrigue. Katy Rose Pool did an excellent job with the world-building. I was intrigued from the moment the book showed up on our available review copies list, and my curiosity grew […]
[Portia’s Review: Foul Is Fair by Hannah Capin (Foul Is Fair #1) [ Blog Tour]
I’m going into this review feeling very conflicted about this book. Based on the synopsis, I was hooked. I The only thing I might love more than a good retelling is a revenge plot. Seems like a recipe for success. But this didn’t quite hit the mark for me. ALSO: SUPER TRIGGER WARNINGS ! the […]
