I've had this one on my TBR since it came out last year, so I'm excited to finally have gotten to it. I don't really have a lot else to say in this little intro. I had both the audiobook and physical book from the library, which I am realizing more and more that I really… Continue reading Minor Feelings

The Blazing World
This is a backlist title that I had picked up at a used book sale or store awhile ago and it’s just been sitting on my TBR shelf since then. I always try to sprinkle in backlist reads with new releases (which is always harder towards the end of the year), and this one was… Continue reading The Blazing World
Felix Ever After
There were so, so many things about this book that caught my eye and put it on my radar. The gorgeous and colorful cover, including and especially the fact that Felix himself, a young trans male with top surgery scars visible, is highlighted in all his beauty. Then, there’s the title (I’m a sucker for… Continue reading Felix Ever After
Monster Portraits
I am not completely sure how/when I first heard of this collection. It’s very outside of my normal genre/style for reading, as a sort of graphic illustrated mini essay reflection memoir sort of thing. But, I am trying to branch out a bit in my reading, just a little bit at a time, and this… Continue reading Monster Portraits
Little Fires Everywhere
This one has been on my TBR for quite some time. I got it in a monthly book subscription box (Muse Monthly, which, sadly, has closed that part of their business), about a year ago. It’s been on my shelf since then. I read Ng’s first book, Everything You Never Told Me, a couple years… Continue reading Little Fires Everywhere
I’ll Give You the Sun
I’ve had this book on my TBR for some time, and had heard nothing but great reviews of it. Then, about two weeks after I found it at used bookstore (and decided to grab it), it was chosen as the June book for my long distance book club. Sometimes, timing is everything. I'll Give You… Continue reading I’ll Give You the Sun
Radio Silence
This is a bit of a lesser known title, which it a bit out of the ordinary for me of late. I’ve really been more on the “popular new books” train, but everything needs a little shake-up once in awhile. Also, I saw someone on bookstagram mention that this was life-changing for them, though unfortunately… Continue reading Radio Silence
The Astonishing Color of After
I don’t usually get to books this soon after publication (my TBR backlog is ridiculous), but based on the description (and that title!) this is one that I actually almost pre-ordered. I decided at the last minute not to, but still wanted to get to it as soon as possible. And I have to say,… Continue reading The Astonishing Color of After
Eliza and Her Monsters
I’ve been in the mood for some good contemporary YA recently, so I spent a little time browsing in the YA section of my library last week. I didn’t necessarily go in with a plan to get anything in particular (other than the Silvera that I just recently finished/reviewed) – I planned to just… Continue reading Eliza and Her Monsters
