Welcome to my weird world!
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 won lots of significant awards when it was released in 2015. It's definitely one of the most different and memorable reads I've read this year. But I also have to give it the title of worst I've read this year, and I have no joy giving that title to an author who shares... Continue Reading →
I don't know how Karen M. McManus does it, but every mystery she conjures out of thin air has generally the same kind of themes yet she makes it feel fresh and new every time. And this story of hers is different from her previous ones. Her debut, One Of Us Is Lying, was clearly... 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 →
Most sequels I've read recently have disappointed me and diminished my love for prior instalments. But Mindy McGinnis following up on her fun, discomforting The Initial Insult manages to continue delivering. Now, this review spoils a large chunk of the last book, so if you haven't already read The Initial Insult, I encourage you to... 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 →
If you're looking for a sweet romance, high-school or otherwise, with rather angelic people finding happiness and overcoming the hardships faced against those who oppose their love, Fifteen Hundred Miles From The Sun is a fantastic option for you. Julian Luna is a 12th-grade soccer player who's, let's see here, vegetarian yet knows where to... 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...

I should've caved to my gut and tried out Mindy McGinnis' works long ago. This time, McGinnis' work is based off of the Edgar Allan Poe short story, The Cask of Amontillado, which I'd never heard about in my life before, and McGinnis kind-of kind-of-not-so secretly puts Amontillado as the name for this grungy American...
