Book Review: This Splintered Silence by Kayla Olson
I’ve been reading so much fantasy lately and I’ve had a craving for some great sci-fi. Enter This Splintered Silence — a book I had heard nothing about until I had the opportunity to request a copy. I’m so glad I took a chance on this novel — it is a fast paced sci-if thriller… Continue reading

Weekly Wrap-Up: 08 February 2019
It may be cold, windy, rainy, and unpleasant outside, but it’s Friday! Thank goodness. Life has been so hectic lately, but I’ve still managed to sit down and read, as well as get some things scheduled in here. That hasn’t left much room for free time though, oh well. Continue reading

Book Review: Throne of Glass by Sarah J. Maas
I have started a very casual project of reading some classic YA books that have helped build the genre into what it is today. Throne of Glass was the first book I read for this little project, and I have to admit that I assumed I’d hate it. I’m (now) very vocal about my grumpy… Continue reading

Monthly Wrap-Up: January 2019
Why is it that January feels like the longest month of the year? Maybe it’s the cold and dark, maybe it’s the fact that it’s the start of a new year. Whatever it is, we survived! Hooray!

Book Review: In an Absent Dream by Seanan McGuire
The Wayward Children series has been such a rollercoaster for me so far. Every Heart a Doorway is basically perfect, Down Among the Sticks and Bones was infuriating and disappointing, and Beneath the Sugar Sky was a good read but nowhere near as great as the first book. I was so apprehensive about reading the… Continue reading

Book Review: The Wicked King by Holly Black
So if you read my review of The Cruel Prince last year, you may recall that I was not hugely impressed. Fae books don’t often work for me, and while I liked The Cruel Prince more than the other fae books I’ve read, I thought it was a great, big mess of a book with… Continue reading

Book Review: The Gutter Prayer by Gareth Hanrahan
You know that feeling when you love a book and you can’t quite put into words why? You just want to run around, throwing copies of it into the hands of unsuspecting readers? That’s how I feel about The Gutter Prayer, Gareth Hanrahan’s astonishing debut. The Gutter Prayer is a breath of fresh air in… Continue reading

Book Review: Big Little Lies by Liane Moriarty
Big Little Lies got a whole lot of buzz when the TV miniseries came out last year. I haven’t seen the show yet, but I was curious about the book based on the premise of the show. One Goodreads reviewer described this book best: “this is the funniest book about domestic violence and murder that… Continue reading
