House of Earth and Blood by Sarah J. Maas – Book Review

House of Earth and Blood Book Review

“I let out the breath I didn’t know I’d been holding.”

House of Earth and Blood (Crescent City) by Sarah J. Maas was an epic thrill ride from cover to cover.

Did you ever play that tunnel game as a kid where you try to hold your breath from start to finish?

I just hope you didn’t try doing it …

All the Stars and Teeth by Adalyn Grace – Book Review

All the Stars and Teeth Book Review

All the Stars and Teeth by Adalyn Grace was my latest read. I literally just put the book down and immediately picked up my laptop.

Have you ever been to a funeral for a loved one?

I imagine most of us have.

You know, that realization that it’s over. The increased pace in your heart, that lost feeling that might …

Golden Son by Pierce Brown – Book Review

Golden Son Book Review

Last night I finished Golden Son by Pierce Brown, and wow what a ride.

Before we go on, you should read my review of Red Rising first if you have yet to read any book in this series.

But speaking of rides.

I love rollercoasters.

I’m not HUGE aficionado, and I hate the really really tall ones. But I love …

Sorcery of Thorns by Margaret Rogerson – Book Review

Sorcery of Thorns Book Review

I recently finished Sorcery of Thorns by Margaret Rogerson.

Surprises.

Who doesn’t love surprises? Am I right?

That sudden rush of a adrenaline when you realize something special is going on. That bursting through the seams excitement you get as you open the present or discover the unexpected gift.

Surprises come in all shapes and sizes.

A bar of chocolate, …

Stronger Than a Bronze Dragon by Mary Fan – Book Review

Stronger Than A Bronze Dragon Book Review

Stronger Than a Bronze Dragon by Mary Fan had a lot of potential, but ultimately failed to impress for me.

I liken it to Mint Chocolate Chip Ice Cream.

It’s my favorite kind of ice cream.

If the option is available, I get me some Mint Chip wherever I go.

I grew up in the US and have lived here …

The Court of Miracles by Kester Grant – Book Review

The Court of Miracles Book Review

The Court of Miracles by Kester Grant is a retelling unlike any other I’ve ever read.

Thanks to NetGalley and Alfred A. Knopf Books for the ARC of The Court of Miracles that I received. The Court of Miracles is set to publish June 2nd, 2020.

I should start off this review by saying that I’d never read, watched, or …

The Toll by Neal Shusterman – Book Review

The Toll Neal Shusterman Book Review

Reading The Toll by Neal Shusterman was a lot like racing against Usain Bolt in the Olympics.

Or at least what I imagine racing him would feel like, cause let’s be real, I’d never be in the Olympics.

What I mean is that no matter how hard I try, I simply wouldn’t be able to run fast enough.

That’s the …

Blood Heir by Amélie Wen Zhao – Book Review

Blood Heir Book Review

Blood Heir by Amélie Wen Zhao was an interesting book to say the least.

One of the greatest things going for it is that Blood Heir was a story unlike any other I’ve ever read before.

And that’s a pretty difficult thing to do these days. There’s nothing new under the sun, and nearly every fantasy book seems to be …

Red Rising by Pierce Brown – Book Review

Red Rising Book Review Pierce Brown

Today I’m reviewing Red Rising by Pierce Brown.

It’s kind of become my thing to draw a comparison to a series so that you, the reader, can know what you’re getting into.

My comparison for Red Rising?

“May the odds be ever in your favor.”

Eight simple words, but I would be surprised if a single person out that doesn’t …
