I’ve not been present of late, and for that I’m sorry. Sorry to what few readers I have, and sorry to myself as well. This post really is just an explanation of what’s been going on, a vent about frustrations with what I’m trying to do with this blog, and a framework for going forward. …
Book Review: The Black Tulip by Alexandre Dumas
When a passionate young man is falsely accused of a crime and thrown into prison, you have the makings of an Alexandre Dumas novel. Now, this was only the second Dumas novel I have ever read, so the before mentioned statement was a most likely an exaggeration. That being said I was slightly surprised to …
Book Review: Bullet Train by Kotaro Isaka
Beautifully orchestrated chaos. That is Bullet Train in three words. Did I pick up this book because I watched the 2022 film by the same title? Yes, yes I did. To be fair, I honestly had no idea it was a book until the end credits of the film were rolling. As soon as I …
Book Review: Neon Gods by Katee Robert
This is a Spoiler Free review Have you ever loved a story or a couple so much that you’d take reading their tale over and over again as long as there were some changes between each edition? Well that’s how I feel about Hades and Persephone. Back when I was in high school (we’re talking …
My Review of Book Lovers by Emily Henry
If you weren’t already aware, I adore books about books. I don’t know why. I’ve heard some people complain about such books, saying they’re lazy writing or not interesting, but I am drawn to them. Give me books about bookshops, books about writers, and anything in between. I’ll take a chance on it. So when …
My Review and Breakdown of A Court of Silver Flames by Sarah J. Maas
Well, this one certainly was a ride for me. Nesta, though a strong character, has never been my favorite. She always rubbed me as the prideful, toxic, witch. And I’m using witch here, but know when I say it I actually am meaning B*tch. And yes, that’s capitalized on purpose. When I learned that A …
My Review of A Court of Frost and Starlight
This is going to be a short one, because hey, guess what, it’s a novella. It’s also going to be a spoiler free review, due to the fact that I’m trying to be considerate of those who may not have read this book yet, as well as the fact that I have nothing substantial to …
My Review and Breakdown of A Court of Wings and Ruin by Sarah J. Maas
How can the book I have loved the most also be the one with which I have the most issue? I wouldn’t have thought it was possible, but somehow this book tops A Court of Mist and Fury, but for completely different reasons. Sarah J. Maas has delivered yet again. Synopsis Feyre has returned to …
My Review and Breakdown of A Court of Mist and Fury by Sarah J. Maas
Do you ever look for that one book that’s essentially just a giant piece of fan-service? Well, A Court of Mist and Fury felt like that, and in the best possible way. We have alpha males, bad-ass bitches, a treasure hunt, love and betrayal. What more could we ask for? I will say that this …
My Review and Breakdown of A Court of Thorns and Roses by Sarah J. Maas
I had been asked by a dear friend of mine to read this book, nay, this series, quite some time ago. Between being in a gaming frenzy and a reading slump, this request was pushed to the side for far too long. Ashley, I truly am sorry for the delay in my boarding the ACOTAR …
