    Disclaimer from Creators: You’ll either like this or you’ll love this. There’s really no other option. I was tagged by the lovely Mandy from Book Princess Reviews and this tag was created by Arkon and Annie. Why would I ever want to quit a book?

  • Stepsister – Jennifer Donnelly

    Stepsister – Jennifer Donnelly

    Stepsister by Jennifer Donnelly My rating: 4 of 5 stars Stepsister by Jennifer Donnelly is a challenging book to rate, because I did not enjoy it when I first started reading but was engaged by the end. How do you rate a book that has such completely different feelings from beginning to conclusion? I honestly…

  • Wayward Son – Rainbow Rowell

    Wayward Son – Rainbow Rowell

    Wayward Son by Rainbow Rowell My rating: 4 of 5 stars Wayward Son is the second book in the Simon Snow series by Rainbow Rowell. Although I enjoyed the first book in the series, it wasn’t as well fleshed out as I felt that it could have been because we were thrown into a fictional…

    Five Dark Fates – Kendare Blake

    Five ​Dark Fates by Kendare Blake My rating: 4.5 of 5 stars Five Dark Fates is the fourth and final book in the Three Dark Crowns series by Kendare Blake. I started the series not quite knowing how I felt about Three Dark Crowns, but seeing potential. It was a challenge to juggle all of…

    The Guinevere Deception – Kiersten White

    The Guinevere Deception by Kiersten White My rating: 4 of 5 stars I am a huge fan of Arthurian legend (in fact, I once wrote a research paper about it), so when I saw that Kiersten White was gifting the world with the Guinevere Deception I was intrigued. I’ve always loved the magic of Merlin,…

    The Girl the Sea Gave Back – Adrienne Young

    The Girl the Sea Gave Back by Adrienne Young My rating: 4 of 5 stars The Girl the Sea Gave Back is the second book set in the Viking world that Adrienne Young built. I really enjoyed Sky in the Deep when I read it last year and could not wait to see what Young…

  • Spin the Dawn – Elizabeth Lim

    Spin the Dawn – Elizabeth Lim

    Spin the Dawn by Elizabeth Lim My rating: 4 of 5 stars Spin the Dawn was sold to me as a Mulan and Project Runway mashup of sorts, so I was intrigued because Mulan is tied for my favourite princess. Project Runway? I don’t really have an opinion about, but I was willing to give…

  • Loki: Where Mischief Lies – Mackenzi Lee

    Loki: Where Mischief Lies – Mackenzi Lee

    Loki: Where Mischief Lies by Mackenzi Lee My rating: 4 of 5 stars Mackenzi Lee tackles Loki’s story through the Marvel lens, blending Norse mythology and storylines with the unique versions of the characters that readers might be familiar with from the Marvel cinematic universe. We meet Loki and Thor as younger, more vulnerable characters…

  • Supernova – Marissa Meyer

    Supernova – Marissa Meyer

    Supernova by Marissa Meyer My rating: 4.5 of 5 stars Supernova is the third and final book in the Renegades trilogy by Marissa Meyer. The series was inspired by the author’s love of superheroes, and specifically her childhood dreaming about the X-Men with her brother. I would say that Supernova is my favourite book in…
