Clown in a Cornfield…who will he kill?

Clown in a Cornfield by Adam Cesare

December 29, 2020 by Caitycat Leave a Comment

Kettle Springs, Minnesota seems like your average Midwest town. It’s very rural, surrounded by a lot of corn fields and farms. The town is small and dying after the local corn syrup factory, Baypen, closed its doors. A lot of residents blame the problems on one thing: teenagers. These kids these days are always filming crazy pranks on their phones, disrespecting elders and traditions, commiting arson (Okay, that one actually is bad). Certain members of the community have had enough, but they came up with […]

“A witch without her spells is just a girl alone in the woods. And no one wants to be a girl alone in the woods…”

Ever Cursed by Cory Ann Haydu

October 11, 2020 by Caitycat Leave a Comment

Five years ago, the princesses of Ever were placed under the Spell of Without by an impulsive young witch. Every year on their 13th birthday, the princesses will be cursed to go without one vital thing. The eldest Jane was cursed to be without food. Therefore, she hasn’t eaten or drank in five years. Nora is cursed not to love, Alice is cursed not to sleep, Grace is cursed not to remember. Now that the youngest princess, Eden, is turning 13, the witch will tell […]

The Starless Sea

The Starless Sea by Erin Morgenstern

October 11, 2020 by Caitycat Leave a Comment

It’s rather daunting to approach a review of The Starless Sea. It’s a winding story that weaves inside and out, and I’ve heard (and personally believe) that it benefits from multiple reads. Alas, I am approaching this review having only read the book once. Still, I shall try my best. Zachary Ezra Rawlins once discovered a door painted on the side of a building. He did not go through the door that day, but he remembered it. When he finds a mysterious book in his […]

P.S. I Still Love You and Always and Forever, Lara Jean

Always and Forever, Lara Jean by Jenny Han

P.S. I Still Love You by Jenny Han

October 11, 2020 by Caitycat Leave a Comment

In To All the Boys I’ve Loved Before, Lara Jean Song Covey’s life is turned upside down when her younger sister sends out a series of love letters that she had written to the boys she had overwhelming feelings towards. One letter, to the popular and handsome Peter Kavinsky, led to a fake relationship that sparked real romance. The second book starts with Lara Jean deciding to make a play for Peter, for real this time. They get back together, or rather finally get together, […]

“They don’t die in this one”

Sick Kids in Love by Hannah Moskowitz

October 11, 2020 by Caitycat Leave a Comment

Sick Kids in Love boasts the tagline, “They don’t die in this one.” This snort-inducing line was a big selling point for me, along with how much I enjoyed Moscowitz’s Teeth. It sounded like a refreshing change of pace from weepy dramas about terminally ill teens from Five Feet Apart to vintage Lurlene McDaniel to The Fault in Our Stars (Although that book is amazing and I love it, and I will hear nothing bad about it or John Green). Isabel, AKA Ibby, is sixteen […]

“You have to pretend you get an endgame. You have to carry on like you will; otherwise, you can’t carry on at all.”

Carry On by Rainbow Rowell

Wayward Son by Rainbow Rowell

January 27, 2020 by Caitycat 1 Comment

I’ve been working on this review for a while, and I was finally going to polish it and publish it, but I ended up deleting it, so I’m going to quickly do a new one. I read Carry On back when it first came out (I would normally link to my review, but I never actually reviewed it). I loved it back then, so now that the sequel was being released, and with a bit of time to kill waiting for my fancy copy to […]
