Before I begin: this book is brimming with self harm. It is on nearly every page. If this is something that you struggle with then skip this book and consider heading here instead. I'm not even sure where I acquired this book. Quite possibly, it was for FrighteningGoodReads2018 since the book was published in October, 2018.... Continue Reading →
I'll be honest. I have a hard time recommending romance books to a general audience. If someone asks me for recommendations, I have many. But I have questions first. That's because romance is personal. One person's romantic gesture is another individual's suffocating display of affection. Furthermore, what appeals to a reader at one point in... Continue Reading →
This book cost me four hours of sleep. I could not put it down or rest my eyes until I finished the last page. I have seen the book around and heard the buzz but, honestly, I didn't expect to enjoy it. I certainly didn't think I would become completely obsessed and compelled to finish... Continue Reading →
I can't seem to stop reading cute high school romance books even though they are really not my favorite. I thought the premise of this book sounded fun - a fish out of water story told from the boy's perspective - but when I cracked into it I know I emitted a loud sigh. High School was not...

I will freely admit that my hatred for Jane Eyre is as long as the endless night I was forced to read the entire novel. Of course, perhaps I would have enjoyed it more had I not procrastinated myself into an all-nighter but what is done is done. Since that horrible incident I have had a... Continue Reading →
The Wicked King, the sequel to Holly Black's fascinating dark faerie tale, debuted just after the New Year but because of my self-imposed book buying restrictions I had to wait until the library saved me a copy. Thankfully, my library is the best so I didn't have to wait too long for the second in... Continue Reading →
I didn't want to read Scythe by Neal Shusterman last year but I not only read it, I deeply enjoyed it. You can check out all of my thoughts here. I immediately bought the second book. Then, as was my tendency, I stuck on my TBR shelf. But, now that I have made my 2019 New Year's... Continue Reading →
Happy Halloween! My favorite of all holidays is today! Dressing up (Edna Mode, thank you very much) and festive candy eating is the only thing that will distract me from the end of Frighteningly Good Reads 2018. I have had a wonderful month reading spooky, scary and suspenseful stories and I hope you all have... Continue Reading →
I am going to confess something. I didn't want to read this book. I believe that I purchased it two years ago and started it only to quit three chapters in and shelf the book. If not for a combination of Frighteningly Good Reads and my 2018 Resolutions I probably would never have forced myself... Continue Reading →
This book was absolutely nothing like what I expected. Perhaps because the cover reminded me of The Indian in the Cupboard I erroneously assumed the story was a middle grade title. Or the inclusion of cartoons lead me to believe this would be a more mature Captain Underpants. Either way, I started the book ready to... Continue Reading →
