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

Dreaming of Flight, Catherine Ryan Hyde
This might be a tricky review to write, as it would be easy to spoil certain aspects of the book. I would recommend not reading reviews before reading this, but you’re here now, so at least read this one. What an emotional book! Stewie is an exceptional boy. He’s faced so much loss in his… Continue reading Dreaming of Flight, Catherine Ryan Hyde
The Fragile Ordinary, Samantha Young
I honestly don’t know how to review this book. There are pieces in Comet that are pieces in me, and sometimes the lines of what Comet was going through blurred so much with my teenage self that I felt my heart breaking for her repeatedly. Even when her strength was shining through, it was a… Continue reading The Fragile Ordinary, Samantha Young
The Light Through the Leaves, Glendy Vanderah
You did see me review Glendy's newest book last week. So I am skipping around a bit, but this book is so beautiful, I wanted to share this review with you all. I feel confident that as of today, I can declare this my most favorite read of the year. The book had ups and… Continue reading The Light Through the Leaves, Glendy Vanderah
Opium and Absinthe, Lydia Kang
As this book is well-reviewed, I don't have tons more to add that other people haven't already said. I loved the slow build-up of the storyline. I liked Tillie's persistence in everything she did. From writing Nelly to pushing back against her mother and grandmother, she never stopped striving to find justice for her sister.… Continue reading Opium and Absinthe, Lydia Kang
Daughter of the Moon Goddess, Sue Lynn Tan
“Was the fleeting joy worth the sorrow that came after?” I don’t know how to review this book! It’s everything special and incredible in the fantasy genre. The infused mythology makes this such a magical read. Xingyin is the strongest of heroines, one that you will cheer on from the very start. She is tested… Continue reading Daughter of the Moon Goddess, Sue Lynn Tan
Cryptonalia, Patrick Canning
Don't forget your socks Wow, just wow. For a hot minute, I was thinking of just writing 50 wows for this review and leaving it at that. I don’t think I have the words to do this book justice, but I will try, if not through a meandering path, which quite honestly suits the game… Continue reading Cryptonalia, Patrick Canning
The Angel’s Wrath, Julia DeBarrioz
I was waiting for my paperback copy to show up before sharing my review because Julia is one of my absolute favorites, and I wanted to show you how amazing this cover is. My pic does not do it justice. I'm also going to do this post similar to how I do blog tours because… Continue reading The Angel’s Wrath, Julia DeBarrioz
