    Monthly Reading Wrap-Up: June 2019

    June was an exceptionally busy, but fun month for me. My birthday falls in early June, which means lots of shiny new books for me, and I also spent a lot of time with family and friends. Despite being super busy, I managed to read 12 books in June. Continue reading

    Gumiho/Wicked Fox by Kat Cho

    Gumiho/Wicked Fox by Kat Cho

    I had been hearing a lot about Gumiho, titled Wicked Fox in the US, and was curious to see what all the hype was about. While I expected to like this book, I ended up absolutely loving it! To me, it is the perfect example of how YA romance should be written. Continue reading

    Book Review: Magic for Liars by Sarah Gailey

    Book Review: Magic for Liars by Sarah Gailey

    Magic for Liars is a book that seemed like it captured all of my interests — it’s set at a magic school in my home state of California and features a murder mystery that our non-magical private investigator must solve. Although I liked Magic for Liars well enough, it didn’t quite meet my high expectations. Continue reading

    Book Review: Spellswept and Snowspelled by Stephanie Burgis

    Book Review: Spellswept and Snowspelled by Stephanie Burgis

    I’ve been seeing these novellas, particularly Snowspelled, pop up all over my bookish social media feeds for ages. However, I was compelled to buy and read them when I found out that Emma Newman, one of my favourite authors, had been selected to narrate the audiobooks. Fully convinced, I dove into Spellswept and Snowspelled and… Continue reading

    Book Review: Atlas Alone by Emma Newman

    Book Review: Atlas Alone by Emma Newman

    By now you all know how much I absolutely love Emma Newman’s Planetfall books, so there’s no surprise that I was eagerly awaiting, and ultimately ended up loving, this book. The first sequel in the Planetfall series, Atlas Alone picks up six months after the events of After Atlas and deals with the consequences of… Continue reading

    Book Review: Jade City by Fonda Lee

    Book Review: Jade City by Fonda Lee

    Jade City has been on my radar for ages — I’ve owned a copy for at least a year, but never got around to it. In an attempt to actually read the diverse fantasy that I keep buying, I decided to give it a try and wow. This is another book to add to the… Continue reading

About Me

Welcome to my corner of the bookish internet. I’m an American who has lived in the UK for almost 10 years, a publishing professional, and lifelong lover of books. I make it my mission to shout about books all over the internet and share my enthusiasm with other readers. I read a little bit of everything, but my main genres of choice are horror, fantasy, and science fiction.

I aim to start conversations about books and reading, link readers to new authors and titles they’ll love, provide insightful review the books I’m reading, and discover new writers and subgenres on this blog.
