Welcome to my weird world!
Why did I pass up Girl In Pieces? After this and her terrific You’d Be Home Now, Kathleen Glasgow is an author that will I think always be on my radar. She should be on yours too if she isn’t already. The Glass Girl’s title character is a teenager named Bella. She just recently got... Continue Reading →
This is the fourth book in the Black Witch series by Laurie Forest, its fifth and final book being released a few months ago. My relationship with this series is interesting. I picked up the first book with hesitancy - and then it skyrocketed to one of my favourite books of all time. I hadn’t... Continue Reading →
Sometimes I love a nice out-there fantasy where anything is possible, and other times I like a nice pragmatic contemporary, where we face life’s gritty rough realities that are so hard to break through. That is definitely what this book is about. He Must Like You is about a girl named Libby who’s applying to... Continue Reading →
Welp, I picked up the sequel to the porn book Get In My Swamp, even after I gave it two stars out of five. I didn’t really hate the book or was even disgusted by it. If anything, if it didn’t have some glaring flaws, I maybe would’ve given it a recommended grade. The two... Continue Reading →
Why must books go out of print? Why can’t we have some kind of deal with publishers that they will continue printing some of their old works if requested, even if it would be pricier to do so? I held off on this book series for so long, and now you can only order pre-owned... Continue Reading →
I’m about to start reading Tahereh Mafi’s continuation of her world-famous Shatter Me series, and let’s just say I’ve had quite the long-term relationship with it. I published reviews of each book on my old website, and I actually have the review for the last one up here. Besides the new one, there’s been six... Continue Reading →
The Robin Hood books are my comfort-food go-to. I haven’t yet written reviews for books 4-7; a lot of them would mostly go around the same thing; how it’s a lot of fun to see our heroes outsmart corrupt lawmakers, law enforcers and dishonourable bandits. The last one had a truly cruel juvie prison and... Continue Reading →
After I put this book down…I cried. Not just for Haymitch. But for everyone else who are having their friends and family ripped from their lives by corrupt officers, armies…there’s a lot we bottle up sometimes. For a fair bit of this book, I was expecting a slightly lower rating than what I ended up... Continue Reading →
Fair warning, first and foremost: this is definitely an 18+ kind of book. Amazing what you can find out about while you’re mindlessly digging for details about the next Shrek movie. You might come across a viral smutty fanfiction take with a very suggestive cover and title. I’m not someone who usually reads let alone... Continue Reading →
If we have more books like this for people to fawn over and delight with, we will be having a future generation of considerate, loving and intelligent kids. No wonder book bans are so big right now. There are three boys in this cover, but the narrator is the one in the jersey, Ezra Miller.... Continue Reading →
