High School AUs

Reading Log 2024
1, 212 books! Or 1, 213. I forgot if added The Making of Gone with the Wind to my count as the last book of the year, and I’m too tired to recount everything again. Still, you read that right. Over a 1,000 books in one year. If you don’t believe look down below at…

Reading Log 2023
Last year, I read an amazing 500 books so this year it was only reasonable that I reach a little more and try to get to 600. I didn’t. I got to 700 books!! And yes, maybe it’s considered “cheating” if you count those graphic novels and lower grade books that are easy to read…

Book Highlight: Rapunzel’s Revenge & Calamity jack
If you like Westerns and if you like fairytales, these are for you! Really, they should be everyone cuz comics are cool but that’d be too after-school special. However, I just found it amazing because the fairytale genre just doesn’t have a lot of western AUs. School or towns full of fairytale characters, yes. Erotic…

Book of a Thousand Days Review
Well then, I think I finished the Shannon Hale fairytale catalogue and like Gail Carson Levine, she should be applauded for her creative twists on classic tales while paying homage to the darker elements of the originals and bringing her vivid descriptions of nature blending in with magic.

The Books of Bayern: Forest Born Review
The last novel of The Books of Bayern focuses on Razo’s little sister, Rin, in a novel that brings things full circle with plenty of magic, nature and more danger. In fact, I’m tempted to put a “Water, Trees, Fire, Wind, the four languages lived in harmony until the Kingdom of Kel attacked” quote at…
