Brownies and Broomsticks by Bailey Cates

Brownies and Broomsticks by Bailey Cates

Brownies & Broomsticks was exactly the palate cleansing, kind of book I needed before the Summer Lovin’ read-a-thon started. I knew going in from the blurb and the cover (yes I’m a cover judger) that this book would be light, funny, and easy to get through. And of course I was right and modest! Brownies […]

The Hazards of Skinny Dipping by Alyssa Rose Ivy

The Hazards of Skinny Dipping by Alyssa Rose Ivy

  First, a special thank you to Alyssa for providing a copy of The Hazards of Skinny Dipping for me to review! Now, on to the book! The Hazards of Skinny Dipping was my first “New Adult” read. While personally I have no interest in the whole “New Adult” vs. “Contemporary Adult” vs. “Adult” debate […]

Eleanor & Park

Eleanor & Park

Ok so you know how the other day I was cursing The Statistical Probability of Love at First Sight and expressing my extreme hatred for contemporary novels? And you were all:   Well today is the day I eat those words….or at least some of them. Because I have experienced the complete awesomeness that is […]

The Statistical Probability of Love at First Sight

The Statistical Probability of Love at First Sight

Hi my honey’s! Today we’re going to do something a little different and start this review with a story. *cue flashback effects now* Once upon a time there was a girl who grew up without her father’s presence. She wasn’t bitter or damaged. She didn’t hold a grudge or stupidly believe that he would leave […]

Review: Anna Dressed in Blood by Kendare Blake

Review: Anna Dressed in Blood by Kendare Blake

I truly and honestly do not have a vocabulary large enough to tell you how unbelievably amazing, gripping, detailed and entertaining Anna Dressed in Blood was. To be honest I sort of want to fill this review with a bunch of crazy “Oh my gosh!” gifs and keep repeating the word awesome. It was just […]

Review: The Selection by Kiera Cass

Review: The Selection by Kiera Cass

So I originally had this long ranty, all over the place review written up for this book, but I just couldn’t properly portray my feelings properly. Then I had a fantastic idea! Do a video review! What better way to express my feelings than by sitting down and talking to you all about this book! […]

Review: Under the Never Sky by Veronica Rossi

Review: Under the Never Sky by Veronica Rossi

I hate writing these kinds of reviews because it’s so hard to properly articulate the complete feeling of “meh” I’m having right now. Like the rest of the world I’ve heard every piece of hype and propaganda for Under the Never Sky. This is the exact reason why I waited over a year before I […]

Review: Shadow and Bone by Leigh Bardugo

Review: Shadow and Bone by Leigh Bardugo

You know what, I’ve been working on this damn review for 2 freaking days and I’m tired! With that being said prepare yourself for babbling, ranting, swooning, cursing and Bardugo drinking my tears. I would say sorry but: For the past few weeks all my lovely twitter friends have been baffled by the fact that […]
