Review: The Key to Everything by @pstokesbooks

I love Paula Stoke’s writing style and her stories. They are always realistic, thought-provoking, and with great family and/or friend dynamics. The Key to Everything is no exception. I enjoyed Oakland’s and Morgan’s friendship, always sticking together and through crazy ideas, let it be about hookups, searching for your soul mate, quite simply, mutually supporting each other’s goals and dreams.

Everless by @Sara__Holland : Gripping and Mind-Blowing @harperteen

Everlesswas among the last books I read in December, and I couldn’t have ended the year on a better note. It is the kind of book you don’t expect to blow your mind to bits and leave you grasping for more. My main reason to pick it up was that it proposed an interesting and not common concept of magic and time (at least for me). It reminded me of the 2011 movie In Time with Justin Timberlake. I…

Review: The Burning Page by @GenevieveCogman @AceRocBooks

…

In the third installment of The Invisible Library series, Genevieve Cogman was able to impress readers yet again with the wonderful multi-dimensional settings and action. Loose ends were tied regarding the main villain, though leaving more questions in its wake.

Irene was just as kickass as in the previous two books as she faces the possible destruction of her beloved Library in the hands of…

A Line in the Dark: Blog Tour + Review!

Marianne’s Review:

A  Line  in  the  Dark  is  not  your  typical  f/f  love  story  with  a  happy  ending.  In  fact,  itʼs not  a  love  story,  and  the  main  character  doesnʼt  have  a  romance  arc  at  all.  A  Line in  the  Dark  is  a  tale  of  best  friends,  and  what  you  find  yourself  doing  for  them  out of  loyalty  and  love.

What  I  liked: -The  story  unfolds  through…

BEASTS MADE OF NIGHT: Blog Tour + Review!

“Every time it feels like itʼll last forever. The sorrow that rakes my skin. The guilt that grips my mind. The cold that pierces my bones and freezes my marrow. I want to cry out, but my throat is full of sin, and the moment stretches out like a piece of rubber being pulled and pulled until finally it snaps.”

Marianne’s Review:

Beasts Made of Nightis imaginative and dark. This bookʼs world…

The Upside of Unrequited by Becky Albertalli [Review]

I began to read this book at around 2AM, seeing as I had it as an eARC and didn’t want to sleep. Word of advice: if you don’t want to sleep, pick up this book! I was hypnotized from the very first sentence “I’m on the toilet at the 9:30 Club, and I’m wondering how mermaids pee,” not only because of how random it was but also of how this turned out to be the beginning of a flowering relationship…

Sanctuary: Rebekah Weatherspoon Does It Again!

Marianne’s Review:

Sanctuary was just the book I needed to read to get out of a massive book slump.

Liz as a protagonist is a dream come true: badass black attorney in a male-dominated company. Liz knows she has to hold her own and she does so spectacularly. I love how she has this “take no crap” attitude, and is very protective of her family and friends.

When I first started Sanctuary, I didn’t…

Remember Me Always by Renee Collins: Blog Tour and Giveaway! @reneecollins_ @SourcebooksFire

Review:

Remember Me Always wasn’t at all like I expected, in a good and bad way. I thought this was going to be solely a romantically epic story, almost like the soul mate ones. The premise held that promise of heartache and enough swoon to curl your toes while also dreading the chaos that losing someone you love could have brought.Which actually happened and I enjoyed to bits. However, there is…

Review: The Masked City by @GenevieveCogman @AceRocBooks @BerkleyPub

Armed with her wits and skills, Irene will have to travel between dimensions, face off formidable foes, and perform a rescue mission.Reading a book in a cozy chair would be…
