Awakening #1 I read Fall of Ruin and Wrath looking for something light, fantasy and thrilling. Did not disappoint. I was engaged from the beginning. There are a lot of layers that Armentrout slowly peels back throughout the book. There…
The Selection #2 My head hurts from whipping it back and forth every time America changes her mind, every 3 lines, in The Elite. There wasn’t enough plot to justify the book’s length. America could have been plucking a dandelion:…
Powder Mage Book #3 The Autumn Republic by Brian McClellan is the third and final book in the Powder Mage trilogy. The story follows several characters as they navigate the aftermath of the revolution that took place in the previous…
Powder Mage Book 2 The Crimson Campaign is a tense book. Fast paced, a lot going on simultaneously. Inspector Adamat continues to be the best character! Rolled right into book 3 so I could find out how things actually resolved.…
Powder Mage Book #1 A Promise of Blood by Brian McClellan is a thrilling novel that will kept me on the edge of my seat. Set in a world where magic is real, and the aristocracy uses it to rule…
Ruth Galloway Book 2 The second book is better than the first. The mystery is more complex, there’s a love triangle and a big time complication. I’m still not thrilled with more than a few aspects of Ruth or Harry’s…
Red Rising Saga #3 I really struggled with Morning Star. I wasn’t a massive fan of books 1 and 2, so it took me a year to get around to book 3. I know there’s a lot of love for…
The Selection Book 1 Divergent/Hunger Games meets the bachelor! I know I said I don’t usually read YA, but that was kind of a lie. I don’t usually read -young- YA. This was a great example of a book to…
A Rip Through Time sounds like a fast event, but the book starts slowly. I struggled to pay attention for the first 30-50 pages. I hoped it wouldn’t be a slog through the whole book, and lucky for me, it…
Renard-Buchanan Book 4 Ah, a lovely 2000s romance Not everyone has a cellphone or the Internet and the phones definitely aren’t smart. Those halcyon days. No morally grey characters, the good guys win at the end. Though, reading romance written…

I’ll admit, I went into Fourth Wing with low expectations after seeing it all over Instagram and Goodreads. This book exploded this summer. I’ve read several other viral books and have been disappointed in the overall quality, length, complexity, etc.…
I picked Akata Witch based on an insta recommendation and dove right in without checking the blurb. I knew it was fantasy, I knew Nnedi Okorafor has been well-reviewed, and I knew lots of people liked this book, but I…
Under Heaven #1 I read Under Heaven 13 years ago when it was released. I remembered that I really enjoyed it, but I couldn’t recall the specifics of the plot. Guy Gavriel Kay has been one of my favourite authors…
One of the things I enjoy about the Lucas Davenport series is that each novel may take a few weeks of his life or a month or two, depending on how long the case goes. The intervals between each book…
