  • My Thoughts on Verath the Red

    Hello and happy Saturday. A few years ago, when I still had an active NetGalley account, I came across Talon the Black by Melissa Mitchell. This is the first installment in the Dragonwall series, and I loved it so much that I decided I’d continue with the next installments. Getting them was tricky, though because…

  • My Thoughts on How to Be Bad

    Hello and happy Sunday. I know you want a multiple POV road trip story, which is why I really want you to read How to Be Bad by E. Lockhart, Sarah Mlynowski, and Lauren Myracle. This book was published in 2015 and had probably been sitting in my TBR since. The story, though, totally passes…

  • My Thoughts on Yerba Buena

    Hello and happy Saturday. If you have the opportunity to unlock one title from Everand, take it, and listen to Yerba Buena by Nina LaCour. I feel that this author transitioned beautifully from writing YA to NA and now to this full-on adult contemporary novel that is one of my favorite years of 2025. This…

  • My Thoughts on This Raging Light

    Hello and happy Sunday. Today I’ll review a book I’d had in my TBR list for years. To be completely honest, I had no hopes for This Raging Light by Estelle Laure. I thought it would be one of those pseudo-deep contemporary YA novels that were all the rage in the mid to late 2010s,…

  • My Thoughts on Fake Dating My Grumpy Billionaire Boss

    Hello and happy Saturday. After going through a couple of lists of books that I might be acquiring and reading this year, we can go back to our regular programming, aka reviews of books I’ve actually read. I’m pretty sure I’ve told you already that I came up with this list of the books I…

The Storm by Rachel Hawkins This is Not About Us by Allegra Goodman A Suit or a Suitcase by Maggie Smith American Fantasy by Emma Straub Go Gentle by Maria Semple Last…

  • Best Books of 2025

    Hello and happy Saturday. The time has finally come, the time for me to make an official lists of the best books of last year that I will add to my wishlist this year. I gave you somewhat of a preview with a list released by Amazon, but this list involves selections from a variety…

  • My Thoughts on Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm

    Hello and happy Sunday. If you read Anne of Green Gables and you felt like you wanted to continue consuming similar stories without necessarily jumping to the next book in the series, I think Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm by Kate Douglas Wiggin might be the novel for you. I’m saying this because there are clear…

  • Monthly TBR

    Hello and happy Saturday. I think this is the first time I’m really hopeful about this month’s TBR list, probably because I’ve already read three of the titles I selected, as you can see by the X marks in the picture. The reviews of those books will be coming to you shortly, I promise. This…

  • Reviewing the ‘Best of 2025’ Amazon List

    Hello and happy Sunday. Something I love about the end of a year and the beginning of a new one is looking at the ‘best of’ lists and seeing how many titles were on my radar, which of those I actually read, and also discovering new ones to add to my wishlist. To continue with…
