I don’t know what it is about this world, but I was so happy to be back in it again. It wasn’t just the return of old friends and the sense of “checking in” to see how they are, but the desire I had to see how Ravka would recover from the Darkling’s horrible influence. […]

Ex Libris Audio: The Wicked King
Pain. So much pain. You should know, if you have read any Holly Black books, that there will be pain. You should also know that you will still love it. The Wicked King kept the tension, the intrigue, the beautiful writing, and the surprises of The Cruel Prince and somehow managed to up the stakes. […]

Author Guest Post: Cindy R. Wilson
Cindy R. Wilson was kind enough to write a guest post for me about the representation of mental illness in YA. As someone who suffered from undiagnosed anxiety for years, this is a subject that is near and dear to my heart. As I read Paper Girl, I am struck by how much a book […]
Ex Libris Audio: Onyx & Ivory
I loved Mindee Arnett’s sci-fi duology, but for some reason I hadn’t gotten around to reading Onyx & Ivory. Well, that is a shame because I really enjoyed this audio book! I’ve always loved the disgraced heroine returns trope and this one was just that with some really sweet an emotional romance thrown in. Kate, […]
Blog Tour + Giveaway: The Reckoning of Noah Shaw
This book contains subjects relating to suicide, depression,and self-harm. Overall, I am just a big fan of this series and this world.
