⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Leigh Bardugo is a powerhouse author that I somehow just…missed all these years. Don’t ask me what I was doing when everyone else was diving into the Grishaverse because I simply don’t know. And I still haven’t read those books! Or watched any of the adaptations! I’ve only read Ninth House (love) and now … Continue reading Review: The Familiar by Leigh Bardugo

Review: The Thursday Murder Club
I have been excited for the Netflix adaptation of Richard Osman’s The Thursday Murder Club for years and it did not disappoint. I want to back track a bit here before I get into the movie itself. Richard Osman, a beloved UK TV personality, burst onto the literary scene in 2020 with The Thursday Murder Club. It was … Continue reading Review: The Thursday Murder Club
Book Review: Stephen King’s Never Flinch
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I’m a big fan of Stephen King. I have devoted two entire bookshelves to his works—8 feet each! I think! Maybe it’s 6! I don’t know, it’s longer than me! And I am not very long, but if you measure me in books, that would be pretty long. What I’m saying is: it’s a … Continue reading Book Review: Stephen King’s Never Flinch
Book Review: Juno Dawson’s Queen B
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I finished Juno Dawson’s prequel to the HMRC trilogy, QUEEN B. She took us all the way back to the 16th century, following the reign and tragic downfall of powerful witch Anne Boleyn. What a wild ride! I loved the way she connected Anne’s story to witchcraft, transforming her from a victim to a … Continue reading Book Review: Juno Dawson’s Queen B
Book Review: Stephen King’s You Like It Darker
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Like many spooky girls, I have been terrifying myself with Stephen King’s stories since I was honestly too young to read them. YOU LIKE IT DARKER is a compelling collection of stories that stay with you long after the lights go off, but the one that stood out to me the most was RATTLESNAKES. … Continue reading Book Review: Stephen King’s You Like It Darker
Book Review: Juno Dawson’s Human Rites
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I’ve waited two long years for the final installment in Juno Dawson’s HMRC Trilogy and it did not disappoint. Juno left us on a MAJOR cliffhanger at the end of THE SHADOW CABINET and HUMAN RITES satisfyingly picks right back up where we left off. This book has EVERYTHING: witches, Satan, time travel, pregnancy, … Continue reading Book Review: Juno Dawson’s Human Rites
Book Review: Donna Tartt’s The Secret History
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ For years, people have been shocked to learn that I had not yet read The Secret History. For years, people have been telling me to read it. For years, I have ignored them due to my very annoying NO ONE TELLS ME WHAT TO DO personality. Well, ladies and germs, I’ve finally read it … Continue reading Book Review: Donna Tartt’s The Secret History
Book Review: Dolly Alderton’s GOOD MATERIAL
🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 I read Dolly Alderton’s tender and funny second novel Good Material nearly two years ago and I am still thinking about it. She takes the classic and beloved romcom concept and turns it on its head, giving readers an intimate and at times cringey look into the ripple effects a breakup can have on … Continue reading Book Review: Dolly Alderton’s GOOD MATERIAL
Book Review: All the Single Ladies
All the Single Ladies: Unmarried Women and the Rise of an Independent Nation by Rebecca Traister My rating: 4 of 5 stars So, where do I start? This book found me at just the right time for a number of reasons: 1. 2016 has truly been the Year of the Wedding (at least for me). … Continue reading Book Review: All the Single Ladies
Book Review: My Life on the Road
My Life on the Road by Gloria Steinem My rating: 4 of 5 stars I've taken a few days to really process this book. Going into it, I knew a few things: 1. Gloria Steinem is a feminist. 2. Gloria Steinem is a writer. 3. Gloria Steinem is an activist and organizer. Other than that, … Continue reading Book Review: My Life on the Road
