Welcome to my weird world!
These past three weeks I haven't been able to go to the theatre to see Barbie. I wasn't in much anticipation of it before the reviews came out. But then overnight it became all the world was talking about, about how it was a revolutionary look at the world, a love letter to women and... Continue Reading →
Marissa Meyer is one of my favourite authors and probably always will be. I devoured her Lunar Chronicles books in their primetime and I can't decide if her Renegades series is better or not, but the day I revisit both series, I'm going to have a tense grin on my face. With this one it's... Continue Reading →
This is the second book I've read from TJ Klune, after I got through his Cerulean Sea book about a year ago and took this long to end my breather from him. I don't know about his YA reads (which I really should look into) but his adult reads are generally heavy that can equally... Continue Reading →
I actually didn't see the original Little Mermaid till I was 16 and watched it in my 11th grade Music class. That was also the class I was introduced to Hairspray, another movie I probably wasn't looking for in my life but ended up falling in love with. In the 1989 Mermaid, I found the... Continue Reading →
I always love a good dystopia. Especially in today's times, I feel I need someone to look up to who will take on the power-mad monsters and be out for blood. This fantastical world has two different nations; Astrea and Kalovaxia, and the people there call themselves Astreans and Kalovaxians. Straightforward, right? Yes. But ten... Continue Reading →
Before I begin this review, let me tell you my story around Michael Vey. This book series has changed my life more than any other book series in existence, and you'll see in a minute why there's no exaggeration. Without Michael Vey, I wouldn't be a reviewer, a reader, or a YouTuber, and definitely not... Continue Reading →
This book is just plain fun. Well, in addition, it's also a ferociously funny attack on those who use religion as an excuse to spread hate. And okay, it's also a thought-provoking romance, in a world where most romances aren't thought provoking. Taking place in a version of a past-century France that according to the...

This is the third and final book in Caryn Lix's Sanctuary series. I had such a blast with the first book that I immediately picked up the second, but my expectations must have been way too high, and my interest in how the series would conclude mostly evaporated after it really fell short. Now that... Continue Reading →
I know I'm not giving this a full four stars, but it's been years and years since I've read a book that delivers character progression of the soul so beautifully. There are stories out there of people whose minds slowly change, and we need more like that. People can grow into heroes, but growing from... Continue Reading →
When I started The House In The Cerulean Sea, I was just starting my new job. Such ironic timing. The big hero of this book is a man named Linus Baker who started working for DICOMY when he was my age today. DICOMY is Department In Charge of Magical Youth. There’s also a DICOMA, for...
