Book Review: Dangerous Remedy by Kat Dunn

Dangerous Remedy has been on my radar for ages — I love a good historical fantasy and the French Revolution setting caught my eye. I think that for a reader like me, who has become incredibly picky about what I do and do not like in YA over the years, this one didn’t quite hit… Continue reading

Book Review: Infinity Son by Adam Silvera

I’ve never read an Adam Silvera book, as he tends to write contemporary YA, but I’ve heard good things about his stories and writing.
