This book was not super high on my TBR (though it was on it – because the cover is incredibly eye-catching and got me to read the synopsis) until I read about how legit Wilde is with writing representative characters. I mean, I am also a giant nerd and I love the focus on how… Continue reading Queens of Geek
Happy New Year Everybody! I almost made this post on time, but I struggled SO hard narrowing my Top Ten list down to an actual ten books (I was stuck at fifteen and kept going back and forth). But I'm here to say that I'd rather be a day late than not be happy with… Continue reading Top Ten Reads of 2018!
Joining in for my third @words.between.worlds monthly book (this being their December choice). After three amazing reads (Speak No Evil and Fruit of the Drunken Tree being the last two), it’s pretty safe for me to say that, even if I can’t join on the correct month, I’ll be adding all their choices to my… Continue reading The Map of Salt and Stars
Just One More Pa(i)ge Reading Challenge 2019 I have seen about 30 book challenges for the new year so far. A lot of them look really good (like The Reading Women Challenge). And I know I *should* participate in a couple of them (like Beat the Backlist, for example, which I did at least partially… Continue reading Just One More Pa(i)ge Reading Challenge 2019
This is a backlist book that has been on my TBR for years. And every once in awhile I see it pop up on bookstagram as an old/undersold favorite of some of my fellow readers. So, when I made my Beat the Backlist choices for this past year, I figured it was time to get… Continue reading A Constellation of Vital Phenomena

And I really enjoyed it – I loved the dream-like quality of the story and the writing, and the world-building and magical system were phenomenal. Lazlo was such a compelling and… Continue reading Muse of Nightmares
I subscribe to Unbound Worlds, a blog/newsletter situation that is all about science fiction and fantasy worlds. I love all the book recommendations, author interviews, and lists (who doesn't love lists!) that they send out. The most recent email newsletter from them included the following list: The 100 Best Fantasy Novels of All Time (list… Continue reading What I’ve Read: 100 Best Fantasy Novels of All Time
I’ve seen this one around, especially on bookstagram, for years, but was never overly interested in it until recently, when I heard about the Netflix movie coming out. Then the hype got out of control…and I totally fell for it. Plus, of course, you all already know that I cannot watch a movie without reading… Continue reading To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before
This book has been making the rounds on bookstagram. Everyone is talking about it, saying how wonderful it is and, how even though it is quite long (almost 500 pages) it’s such a fast read. And we all already know how much of a sucker I am for books with lots of hype. Haha. I… Continue reading Pachinko
A few weeks ago I read/posted about The Kiss Quotient, one of my favorite books from this year, and asked for recommendations of similar contemporary romances. I’m just really in the mood for them right now. One of the most popular recommendations was The Hating Game. So here we are! The Hating Game by Sally… Continue reading The Hating Game
