A Court of Thorns and Roses Series

To know the darkness will always remain, but how you choose to face it…that’s the most important part.

I blame Instagram. Over the summer, several influence-y women half my age screamed at me from my phone about how great Maas’ A Court of Thorns and Roses (ACOTAR) book series was. I was influenced. This is the fifth book in the Court of Thorns and Roses series, so proceed with caution if you haven’t read yet but want to. And you do want to read these if you are at all a fan of paranormal romances, sexy fairy shenanigans, and magic-y places. First, I need to confess […]

I couldn’t wait to get my hands on the next book in this series. Expecting a hefty tome like the preceding books, I was kind of disappointed when I picked up this thin little volume from the library. I was ready to tuck in for the long haul, but this 4th book is more like a novella. However, it does take place during Solstice celebrations so slightly festive and somewhat appropriate timing for me to be reading it now. Again, this is book 4 so […]

It was happening again. Another fight with narrow-minded, hateful people.

I can see its shortcomings. I recognize the sometimes messy history and repetitive phrasing, but, I’m all in. This is a book about […]

CBR 13 BINGO: Flora square (along top and right edge of cover) Somehow I missed this one when it was favorably (and unfavorably) reviewed a while back, but I follow some Instagram accounts that were raving about this series so I got curious. After a war between human mortals and faeries, the world is split. A wall is erected and humans are pushed behind it into the southlands. Generations of stories about powerful fae creatures that enslave, murder, and eat humans are handed down. Occasionally even stories […]

Zirza on A Gothic Classic for a ReasonIt's one of those wish-you-could-read-it-again-for-the-first-time books. I loved it.
Emmalita on “It came to something when you found yourself hoping that the footsteps you heard were ghosts.”I loved the ending! I don’t think it’s been out long enough to talk about why though.

Emmalita on “Only you, Em, would refer to heartbreak as a distraction. I think I would have a more sympathetic response if I asked to marry a bookcase.”Oh my goodness, Gallifrey was beautiful. I’m sure her mittens were gloriously murdery.
