Slayer by Kiersten White (No Spoilers)
Alright, so I'll preface this review by saying that I've never watched a single episode of Buffy the Vampire Slayer. I have, interestingly enough, seen a few episodes of Angel (a spin-off) here and there and am, or I thought I was, decently familiar with the universe. For those of you like me, who haven't … Continue reading Slayer by Kiersten White (No Spoilers)
Circe by Madeline Miller (Spoilers)
Wow, I really liked this book. I know that's what a 4 Star rating generally means, but I just want to make it clear. This was good. I also want to preface this review by saying that this is another book where I'm not sure how to categorize the spoilers. If you've read The Iliad or The Odyssey, … Continue reading Circe by Madeline Miller (Spoilers)

Milkman by Anna Burns (No Spoilers)
Okay, so my first warning, which you cannot have possibly avoided if you've read anything at all about this book, is that Burns' writing style in this book, is not for everyone. I read a lot and I normally read very quickly, but I am not kidding when I tell you I slogged through this … Continue reading Milkman by Anna Burns (No Spoilers)
Freefall by Jessica Barry (No Spoilers)
So this was a quick little read. A little different from my usual, but I'm doing things differently this year so I'm here for it. Freefall is a story told from the alternating perspectives of Allison and Maggie Carpenter, daughter and mother, respectively. The story starts with Maggie being informed that the plane that Allison was … Continue reading Freefall by Jessica Barry (No Spoilers)
The City of Brass by S.A. Chakraborty (No Spoilers)
If you're looking for just a smol example of how out-of-hand my physical TBR is, look no further than this book. When I saw that The Kingdom of Copper was coming out in 2019, I went ahead and requested The City of Brass so that I could read the books in order and fairly close together because … Continue reading The City of Brass by S.A. Chakraborty (No Spoilers)
The Cruel Prince by Holly Black (No Spoilers)
Wow, okay, so this is the Holly Black that I missed in White Cat (keeping in mind that I struggle connecting to audio books as a rule). What a depraved, fascinating story. But let me tell you, I was HOOKED. It's crazy actually, I read two books, back-to-back, that were similar in page count: The … Continue reading The Cruel Prince by Holly Black (No Spoilers)
The Girl in the Tower by Katherine Arden (Spoilers)
Two 🔥 FIERY FAVORITE🔥 reads in a row!!! Which is a rarity for me, for sure. We had a snow day here in Maryland yesterday and so I was able to finish this one off, which I was very excited about because I had just picked up the third installment in this series on Tuesday. I'm … Continue reading The Girl in the Tower by Katherine Arden (Spoilers)
