An Island Princess Starts a Scandal Review
The second book is always interesting to read as you may encounter sophmore slump after the dazzling debut or it exceeds expectations. Herrera’s novel, of course, is the latter as it is just as layered and wonderful as the first in Las Leonas series. Anyone who loves historical romance should go read it and this…

Avalon High Review
Since reading School for Good and Evil (and my roommate binging Merlin) I got interested in the story of Arthur, Camelot and all that jazz. I don’t know why it never interested me before but it’s actually really cool! I mean the big prophecy, shady relatives and a sizzling love triangle. So I headed right…

The Short Second Life of Bree Tanner Review
Alright, I lied in the previous review when I said I was done with the series. There’s one more piece of the larger Twilight universe. A non essential piece technically as it has no bearing on Bella’s story in the big picture but provides an interesting glimpse into the life of newborns. The novella follows…

Pop’s Chock’lit Shop of Horrors Review
Here comes another anaology horror series from Archie Horror! Die and Dash is the story that brings readers to the Chocklit Shop that has turned from cheerful 50s nostaglia to something far more sinister as when Nick and Sherry get caught trying to dine and dash. First off, I loved the choice to have Nick…

The Mirror: Fractured Path Review
It’s 1965 and readers get a glimpse into the aftermath of Zora’s frantic flight to San Francisco. She’s gone now, and her secrets have been hidden from her granddaughter, Blake. Not entirely, she’s aware of her family’s magic and she has “just enough.” Nothing cool like Zora, when she touches objects she gets glimpses of…

Snow and Poison Review
De La Cruz’ sophmore fairytale retelling may have similarities to her first with a dying father, whirlwind romance and possibly wicked stepmother but she manages to deliver a new twist to this classic tale. It’s just unfortunate that with its shorter page length, the story feels rushed and less magical than its predecessor.

Midnight Sun Review
Alright, here we are at the end of the Twilight saga or I suppose the beginning since this Twilight from Edward’s POV. . . and I still have to get to the Bree Tanner novella. Eh, let’s skip the accuracies of my statements and get into Midnight Sun. There’s no need to go over plot…

Breaking Dawn Review
The grand finale to the whole Twilight saga is here! And I’ll admit, I was a lot more aware of the major plot points that the other books because I had saw Breaking Dawn Part 2 (yes, just Part 2, I was only interested in the big Voluturi fight. Apparently I have as much bloodlust…

Eclipse Review
Just with New Moon, I raced through this novel almost as eager as Bella to see the final outcome. Will Victoria finally be vanquished? Will Edward give in? Will Jacob ever accept being friend-zoned?
