We're all on a voyage. This one is mine.
Hello, my voyagers. I know I've been absent for the last several months. My mental health has taken a bit of a dip lately, and I haven't been doing much writing at all. I still wouldn't say I'm in a great place mentally, but I know I'm well enough to write about this book that… Continue reading The Grace Year by Kim Liggett // A Book Review
This is my third Kara Swanson book. I read The Girl Who Could See way back in 2018, and then I read Dust in 2021. I had every intention of reading Shadow as soon as I finished Dust, but . . . that didn't happen. I unintentionally stepped away from the world of Neverland and… Continue reading Shadow by Kara Swanson // A Book Review
Summer of 2024 was all about the ARCs, and I had the time of my life reading so many incredible stories written by such talented authors. Each book has been so unique, and Sixteen Minutes is no exception. I found the author of Sixteen Minutes on Instagram, and her posts intrigued me enough to request… Continue reading Sixteen Minutes by K.J. Reilly // A Book Review
Back in April, I received an email from a publicity intern at SparkPoint Studio. The email explained that she'd seen my book review for ASAP by Axie Oh and wanted to know if I'd be interested in an ARC of Asking for a Friend by Kara H.L. Chen. While I can't remember the exact thought… Continue reading Asking for a Friend by Kara H.L. Chen // A Book Review
I've had this book sitting on my shelf for over a year. Occasionally, I would pick it up and start to read it, but then put it down. I don't know if it was the devil trying to keep me from fiction that would revive my soul or just my own fear that it wouldn't… Continue reading Once I Knew by Victoria Lynn // A Book Review
This is my second Jennifer Armentrout book. I read The Problem With Forever last year and absolutely fell in love with her writing. It was easy, powerful, and holds so much weight that I can only envy. So, you can imagine my joy when I discovered that she had another YA romance novel. I didn't… Continue reading If There’s No Tomorrow by Jennifer Armentrout // A Book Review
My friend bullied me into buying this. Okay, I should probably start at the beginning. My friend, Sarah (@realmofsarah on Instagram), read this book first. Sarah finished the book and immediately texted me that "the kiss scene needs to be studied academically." That was a very compelling argument, so I added it to my TBR.… Continue reading An Enchantment of Ravens by Margaret Rogerson // A Book Review
A few weeks ago, I was at the library to return some books. I've been going there a lot more lately, and it's been nice, even if I don't always finish the books I check out. That particular time, though, I saw two paperback copies of Check & Mate in the YA section. I'd seen… Continue reading Check & Mate by Ali Hazelwood // A Book Review
A few months ago, I requested ASAP by Axie Oh on Netgalley. I never expect for NetGalley to actually accept any of my requests, so you can imagine the utter delight I felt when I received an email saying that my request had been accepted and my shiny new ARC was waiting for me in… Continue reading ASAP by Axie Oh // A Book Review
I've always been a big believer that we find the books we need when we need them. I talked a lot more about this idea in this post, but it's one of the things that makes reading so special. Sometimes we have to read books that we don't want to read. School has required reading… Continue reading The Perks of Being a Wallflower by Stephen Chbosky // A Book Review
