  • Wildcard – Marie Lu

    Wildcard – Marie Lu

    Wildcard by Marie Lu My rating: 4.5 of 5 stars Wildcard is the conclusion to the Warcross duology and I was not ready for this story to end. Warcross by Marie Lu took us on an epic journey into a different reality and a near-future world in which both augmented and virtual reality are just…

  • Pottermore Sorting Tag

    Pottermore Sorting Tag

    I was tagged by the lovely Literary Phoenix for this tag, but I have been woefully behind on my tags – so I figured what better time to actually tackle this than the day I was going to see Harry Potter and the Cursed Child in NYC?! I love all things Harry Potter, so of…

  • Hocus Pocus – A.W. Jantha

    Hocus Pocus – A.W. Jantha

    Hocus Pocus & The All New Sequel by A.W. Jantha My rating: 3.5 of 5 stars I would like to preface this with the fact that I haven’t watched Hocus Pocus in super long, so I don’t really remember the plot. I had hoped to watch it shortly after reading the book and compare it,…

  • Learn About Loss – Cassandra Clare

    Learn About Loss – Cassandra Clare

    Learn About Loss by Cassandra Clare My rating: 4.5 of 5 stars My reaction to the story: I’m not crying. You’re crying. While this was not the most exciting of tales, it did lay some of the foundational groundwork for Kit Herondale. I love the Herondales, so I want to know more about their familial…

  • Tower of Dawn – Sarah J Maas

    Tower of Dawn – Sarah J Maas

    Tower of Dawn by Sarah J. Maas My rating: 4.5 of 5 stars Tower of Dawn is the sixth book in the Throne of Glass series, although it was originally intended to be a novella. Chaol’s story grew until it was a fully fledged narrative itself and deserved its own proper entry into this series.…

  • The Towering Sky – Katharine McGee

    The Towering Sky – Katharine McGee

    The Towering Sky by Katharine McGee My rating: 4 of 5 stars The Towering Sky is the third book in the Thousandth Floor series, which is Gossip Girls in a near-future sci-fi world. I really enjoyed listening to this book as an audiobook, because it was the perfect writing style and plot for relaxed listening.…

  • Cast Long Shadows – Cassandra Clare

    Cast Long Shadows – Cassandra Clare

    Cast Long Shadows by Cassandra Clare My rating: 3.5 of 5 stars Too many children. Who do you belong to? I’m so confused! That is honestly my biggest qualm about this series of novellas. I don’t feel that I know any of the characters well enough yet to know their unique personalities and tell them…

  • Catwoman: Soulstealer – Sarah J Maas

    Catwoman: Soulstealer – Sarah J Maas

    Catwoman: Soulstealer by Sarah J. Maas My rating: 4 of 5 stars I love superheroes and comics, so this series is actually what I never knew I always wanted. I really enjoy the unique origin stories that some of my favourite YA authors have brought to the characters, but sometimes they just feel a little…

  • As Old As Time – Liz Braswell

    As Old As Time – Liz Braswell

    As Old As Time by Liz Braswell My rating: 3 of 5 stars While this may be the most enjoyable of the series that I’ve read so far, I still don’t actually like these books? I keep having high hopes for them and being disappointed. After reading the one inspired by Aladdin, my hopes were…

  • War Storm – Victoria Aveyard

    War Storm – Victoria Aveyard

    War Storm by Victoria Aveyard My rating: 4 of 5 stars War Storm is the fourth and final book in the Red Queen series by Victoria Aveyard. In this book, the main characters face the final battles to determine the future of Norta. Mare puts her heart on the backburner and dedicates herself to the…
