Fantasy Creatures Colouring Book Review
I love colouring with my Ohuhu Alcohol Markers so much that I picked up the Honolulu B set, too. So, of course, I needed a colouring book to go with my markers. I browsed a bunch of different options on Amazon, and ended up purchasing the Fantasy Creatures colouring book by Phoebe Beck, thinking I’d…

Book Review – Starling House
I stalk my friends on Goodreads, and that’s how I noticed Starling House by Alix E. Harrow. Okay, context. My reading fam enjoys vastly different genres. One of them might review a book as ‘5-stars-heart-emoji-squee!!!!!!’ while another might give the same book 1 star or a hard Did Not Finish (DNF). Since the start of…

Book Review – Onyx Storm
My little fangirl heart couldn’t take it when my shiny pre-order copy of Onyx Storm arrived in the mail last Monday (and, boy, is it shiny!!!!!!!). My heart still couldn’t take it halfway through the read. Now? I think I’m dead because my heart stopped after whatever the hell that was. How, in the name…

How to Review a Book
Why review? A single review can make a huge difference, especially for indie authors. For one, reviews spread the word. They connect like-minded readers with authors they might not hear about through any other avenue. Reviews also make books seem alive—if someone is reviewing, that means someone is reading. But reviews also inspire. When impostor…

Book Review – Iron Flame
Picking up from last week, let’s talk about Iron Flame by Rebecca Yarros. Before we get to the official review, a disclaimer. All the opinions shared in this post are my own, are honest, and I’m not compensated in any way for expressing them. This post contains major spoilers. As I mentioned in the last…

Book Review – Fourth Wing
I have to be honest with you, and maybe this proves I am the old crochet lady I feel like most of the time, but I have no idea what is trending on Booktok. No wonder they call ‘us geriatric millennials’. 👵 The point is, I’d never heard of Fourth Wing until my cousin Shants…

An Enchantment of Ravens – Book Review
Okay, so I’ve been flipping out over this book alone for too long now. It’s time to grow the fandom. Did I just reveal my evil plan in the first paragraph of this post? Oops. Before we begin, check out An Enchantment of Ravens on Goodreads, and this will be a spoiler free review. The…

Daughter of Smoke & Bone Trilogy – Book review
It’s only because of my fabulous book-recommending genius of a friend, Tallulah, that I even glanced in the direction of Daughter of Smoke & Bone. The Smoke & Bone covers do nothing for me. In fact, if I’m being totally honest, I despise these covers. Tallulah compares the different covers over on her blog, if…

Warcross – Book Review
About a year ago, my cousin sent me a series of texts telling me I have to read this book NOW. She knows the kinds of books I like, so I knew I’d read anything that came with her recommendation. Only, I didn’t read the book last year. We were amid another big move (yes,…

The Lie Tree – Book Review
I’ve been sharing many reviews from those books randomly picked at the library. I’ve honestly had pretty fabulous luck when it comes to choosing a book by its cover. Which is great, you know? It means exposure to authors I wouldn’t have discovered otherwise. The Lie Tree is one of those books by one of…
