I am so behind on reviews, but I’ve also been reading really slowly the past couple of months so it’s not as bad as it could be. Silver linings, right? Right. So, The Hate U Give, I finished this book back in February, and it was so good. It’s a contender for best book I’ve read this year, and to say that after only two months (or even four) is pretty bold. But I just think it’s an indication of how good it is. Before […]
Curly Locks of Auburn Hair and Eyes of Emerald Green
I loved this book. It’s a wonderful exploration of misfit growing up. It’s hilarious and sweet, but not too sweet. I devoured it in one sitting, and stayed up way too late because of that. This is a couldn’t put it down book, and those are just the best kinds of books. Willowdean Dickson isn’t the skinniest kid in her small Texas town, where beauty pageants and football reign supreme, but she’s happy. She’s got her best friend, a decent job, and a crush who […]
Callum Hunt and the Diminishing Returns
I read the first book in the series and enjoyed it enough to pick up the rest of the books. Unfortunately, I got progressively more dissatisfied with the series as the books progressed. Part of the problem is that the further away the story got from a Harry Potter type story, which the authors established in the first book, the less interested I became in the books. I mean, I can read AU fanfics for free, you know? And this one wasn’t even that good […]
Potter Adjacent
The Iron Trial is the first book in series by Holly Black and Cassandra Clare. I’m a fan of Holly Black, but I’ve kind of avoided everything by Cassandra Clare because I used to read Fandom Wank back in the day and she just leaves a bad taste in my mouth. However, this book was on sale a while back, and it looked interesting so I picked it up (also, I think Holly Black was listed first and I didn’t see Cassandra Clare’s name at […]
Victorian Study of Dragons
A Natural History of Dragons by Marie Brennan is what happens when you take a curious minded scientific woman in a time when women weren’t supposed to be scientific or curious, like Marie Curie for example, and drop her in a world where dragons exist. It’s awesome. Set in a faux Victorian England this is the autobiography of the world famous dragon expert Lady Isabella Trent, or it’s the first part of her autobiography. I loved every second of this book. One of the things […]
Tentacles Everywhere
Binti has been on my TBR pile for a long time, so when someone suggested it for the Vaginal Fantasy give-Veronica-some-suggestions-for-January vote, it voted for it and was really pleased when Veronica picked it for the January book I was pleased. I will note, it’s a bit off brand for Vaginal Fantasy as it doesn’t contain a romance at all, but I’m ok with that. I’m… not really sure how I feel about it. It was fine, but it didn’t really draw me in. One […]
