I'm back from my trip to the Apostle Islands. I had an absolute blast exploring the 22 islands with my mom. I decided to share some of my favorite places and things we did over on my blog, check it out if you want to see what we got up to. https://maepolzine.com/blog/travel-diaries-apostle-islands/

Sharing everything I read in the month of July and what I'm planning on reading next. https://maepolzine.com/blog/the-read-cap-july-2026/

I finished both the Compass Points and Fae by the Bay series by Jillian Witt. Instead of doing a review for each book or each series separately, I'm combining them all into one. https://maepolzine.com/blog/my-thoughts-on-the-compass-points-series-by-jillian-witt/

Sharing all the recipes you can make in Pokémon Pokopia. I meant to share this when the game first released, but never got around to it. Better late than never. https://maepolzine.com/blog/pokemon-pokopia-the-ultimate-cooking-guide/

I updated my ranking of the Disney Dreamlight Valley DLC with the recent release of Honeyglow Woods. Check out where I ranked each of the four packs. https://maepolzine.com/blog/ranking-disney-dreamlight-valley-expansions-which-one-is-the-best/

I finally finished Sunrise on the Reaping after a little over a year of reading it. In part due to being distracted by other books or not being in the right mind space for it. So, I figured I would share my thoughts on it now that it's officially read. https://maepolzine.com/blog/my-thoughts-on-sunrise-on-the-reaping-a-hunger-games-novel-by-suzanne-collins/

Sharing my thoughts on The Moonsinger by Robyn J. Pritzker, this book releases on July 14th. Thanks Netgalley and Poisoned Pen Press for allowing me to read this early. https://maepolzine.com/blog/my-thoughts-on-the-moonsingers-by-robyn-j-pritzker-arc/

Sharing everything I've read in June and everything that I've added to my reading list. https://maepolzine.com/blog/the-read-cap-june-2026/

Sharing my thoughts on the third installment of the Princes of Sin series by Kerri Maniscalco, Throne of Nightmares. https://maepolzine.com/blog/my-thoughts-on-throne-of-nightmares-prince-of-sin-book-3-by-kerri-maniscalco/

Just updated my review of the Dark Olympus series by Katee Robert as the final book in this series has been released. Full warning I did not finish reading the last book, it pissed me off so there is a rant about it at the end of my review. There is a spoiler tag around that part. https://maepolzine.com/blog/thoughts-on-the-dark-olympus-series-by-katee-robert/

Updated my rankings for the Dreamlight Valley Realms with the inclusion of Hercules. https://maepolzine.com/blog/disney-dreamlight-valley-realms-ranked-from-worst-to-best/

Sharing my thoughts Cursed Ever After by Andy C. Naranjo, which follows Risa, a girl burdened by a curse of bad luck that is forced to embark on a quest to escort Prince Javi on her seventeenth birthday. Along the way, they confront curses, overcome internal struggles, and deadly foes.... https://maepolzine.com/blog/my-thoughts-on-cursed-ever-after-by-andy-c-naranjo-arc/

How rude! The link somehow got removed when I was sharing my review on Subnautica 2 Early Access yesterday. So sharing it again, hopefully this time it works correctly. https://maepolzine.com/blog/my-initial-thoughts-on-subnautica-2-early-access/

I've been loving Subnautica 2, while I have yet to finish Early Access, I still wanted to share my initial thoughts. I'm sure they will evolve as the game does as it continues to be developed.

Another book down, another Read-Cap of everything I've read and added to my TBR.

Updated my thoughts on the Aspect and Anchor series by Ruby Dixon with the release of Vowed to the Vulture God.

Sharing everything that's been going on in my life for the past three months (aka Spring aka March through May).
