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
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
I’ve been seeing these novellas, particularly Snowspelled, pop up all over my bookish social media feeds for ages.

Fully convinced, I dove into Spellswept and Snowspelled and… Continue reading

Book Review: Children of Ruin by Adrian Tchaikovsky
Some of you may know that Children of Time is one of my absolute favourite novels. I love the incredible scope, storytelling, and world that Tchaikovsky captures on the page. Children of Ruin is a fantastic sequel that expands on everything that made the first book great, all while serving a compelling and gorgeous story. Continue reading

Book Review: Walking to Aldebaran by Adrian Tchaikovsky
I absolutely love Adrian Tchaikovsky’s Children of Time and was curious to see what his other science fiction books were like. Walking to Aldebaran is the perfect way to sample his writing style — clocking in at right around 140 pages, it’s a short but effective story of an astronaut lost in space. Continue reading

Book Review: An Extraordinary Union by Alyssa Cole
It has been a long time since I’ve read historical romance, despite it being a favourite genre of mine, and I’ve been craving it lately. Pretty much everything that I have read in historical romance has been set in Regency or Victorian England, and I needed to read something different while in a reading slump… Continue reading
