In the world, people are incredibly tolerant. They aren’t racist, misogynistic, or homophobic. They’re accepting of everyone because they ultimately know they should worry about themselves and mind their business. However, this closed-minded school isn’t that world, nowhere is really. But it takes baby steps. Steps such as a female quarterback, even though she has… Continue reading Home Field Advantage, Dahlia Adler

Short Blogging Break
Happy Friday, everyone! I need a few days off from the blog to attend to some health and life things. Said things are not going particularly well, and it's all a bit of a mess, as life is known to do. (How I wish I could say I was going on a fancy vacation to… Continue reading Short Blogging Break
The Long Weekend, Gilly Macmillan
I’ve realized after writing this review that it’s fairly ranty. Sorry in advance for that. Books like The Long Weekend make me wish star ratings weren’t a thing. This story goes from bad, to worse, to unbelievable, to utterly messy. The first half of the book was just one conglomeration of repetition: repeated thoughts, repeated… Continue reading The Long Weekend, Gilly Macmillan
Unreviewed Books
I feel like I'm doing a lot of posts of unreviewed books these days. I checked the date of my last post, and it was April 21st, so about 1 post a month, which isn't terrible. And surprisingly, this last weekend I didn't get much reading done because I made a list of (mostly) 90s… Continue reading Unreviewed Books
Alliance, Feyra Silverlock
Wow, just wow! Alliance was a book that I was really excited for, and then it went missing in my TBR. I wish I had read this sooner because Silverlock had me hooked from the first page. Kanruo is on the run. He needs to hide because he’s the last of his kind. When he… Continue reading Alliance, Feyra Silverlock
Sweet Sweet Revenge Ltd, Jonas Jonasson
I am a huge Jonasson fan. I’ve read and loved every one of his books. So for me, it is super exciting that he has a new book releasing, and I’m incredibly lucky to have received an advanced copy. This book feels vastly different from his other books. It still has a unique level of… Continue reading Sweet Sweet Revenge Ltd, Jonas Jonasson
Mid-May TBR
I feel like it's been a while since I've shared my TBR with you all. This year I've been focusing on rereading favorites, reading classics, going through favorite author's catalogs, or clearing my TBR. I think I'm making great progress on that front with a fair mix of new books coming in as well, so… Continue reading Mid-May TBR
The Gilded Ones, Namina Forna
Why did I wait so long to read this book?! I bought it in a preorder, and it sat on my TBR shelf for far too long. As this is so well-reviewed, I have little more to contribute to help others decide to read this (which they should.) I always read others’ reviews before writing… Continue reading The Gilded Ones, Namina Forna
Don’t Believe It, Charlie Donlea
I’m working my way through Donlea’s back catalog, and this is my second to last book, and then I’m all caught up. I love his books and how they are told in varying pieces that come together to tell a story. This one had a lot of revelations. When I thought I had things figured… Continue reading Don’t Believe It, Charlie Donlea
The Perfect Family, Lorna Dounaeva
Lorna was kind enough to send me a paperback of her book, and the cover is so sharp and stunning that the photo doesn't really do it justice. What lengths will one woman go to keep the image of her perfect family intact? We explore that in The Perfect Family, and if you think you… Continue reading The Perfect Family, Lorna Dounaeva
