  • The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes Review

    This book was certainly full of surprises. I’ll admit, I didn’t read this when it first came out because it seemed unnecessary. I mean who wanted a book about President Snow? And about yet another District 12 tribute, especially as we already know what will happen? But those low expectations were probably a good thing…

  • The School for Good and Evil: Quests for Glory Review

    Ah yes, the Camelot Years. Agatha, Tedros and Sophie had thought that they completed their fairytale but a new evil is rising and everything that they thought was true is about to be undone.

  • 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 Cult of That Wilkin Boy Review

    Everyone knows how obssesive fans can get about their favorite band or singer, you know cult favorites. . . but in this case, Wilkin’s fans are an actual cult thanks to Bingo’s deal with the devil. Spoilers ahead.

  • 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…
