Welcome to my weird world!
If there’s one thing these Avatar books have taught me, or at least reminded me about, it is that our actions may not just influence today or tomorrow, but shape the world years or even generations into the future. The more power, the more it is possible, but boy, this is a complex universe, with... Continue Reading →
I’ll be thinking about this book for a long time, and probably associating it with some decisions I make for myself. Henry Denton is a teenager from a rather troublesome part of Florida. I mean, before everywhere of Florida became a cesspool thanks to DeSantis. He has a mother with a waitressing job she hates... Continue Reading →
DNF @ 40% I couldn’t finish this one. I tried to get into it and failed miserably. Which surprised me. For one, I almost never DNF books, even if they’re really tearing me down. I could count on one hand the amount of books I’ve picked up and DNFed over the last five years. And... Continue Reading →
The world is a horrible place, isn't it? And so much is expected out of each and every one of us, in the world and in ourselves, but almost none of us can truly live up to either of them. So we might look for a little easy gratification, in drugs and alcohol. Or in... Continue Reading →
Ending off the A Good Girl's Guide to Murder trilogy, I would say the first book is the most mystery-heavy, the second is overall the best one, and this third one I would put as the most outside-the-box and squirmy, because it will make you really unsure by the end if everything was worth rooting...

It's such a shame when an instalment in a book series you love disappoints you so much. It makes you feel like now, if you recommend the other books, you're now setting readers up for them to care enough to have to deal with a slog. In this case, The Shadow Slog might be a... Continue Reading →
Little note. This is my first review in months. Feels good to be doing it again. I was reading this book while watching The Ice Age Adventures of Buck Wild, and my thoughts were “What am I doing wasting my time watching that movie?” while I had about a half dozen other things on the...

I look back at my reading experience of The Gravity of Us puzzled. Was I in a bad mood starting it, and did that transcend to the rest? I've given a lot of negative reviews recently, so maybe I should look into that. It is unprofessional of an entertainment critic to let your personal troubles... Continue Reading →
As a reupload since I'm now nearly done An Emotion of Great Delight, I'll begin this review by saying whether or not I end up satisfied or underwhlemd, Tahereh Mafi is the sort of author where I'm always paying attention when she comes out with a new release. So I still have no idea what... Continue Reading →
I can't get enough of Karen M. McManus. Not only has every book of hers been a treasure, but this is my favourite one so far. I didn't think it would, or could, but Echo Ridge High has surpassed Bayview High. A sequel (and potential conclusion) to Bayview High has been announced, and after two... Continue Reading →
