This is a fairytale every girl must read, so there is no misconception that not every heroine of a fairytale book is the Disney princess version. There are cynical girls with tongues as sharp as steel who make you love them for their honesty, wit, and sarcasm. I was lucky enough to win an arc […]

So I devoured Kingdom of the Wicked in a single sitting and then picked this up immediately. While I enjoyed it, this one didn’t suck me in as completely as the first one. This is not to say it wasn’t a fabulous read. This review will contain spoilers for Kingdom of the Wicked. Picking up […]

Dear Reader, Two years have passed in quick succession since this author discovered the Bridgerton series. What with a plague running rampant and a show released on the books, one wonders what the greater evil is. While most might argue the widespread death in wake of the plague is definitely the greatest evil to beat, […]

Anyone who knows me knows that I don’t tend to do horror. So despite the rave reviews I’ve heard about Kerri Maniscalco I hadn’t picked up any of her books.

This review will contain spoilers for ‘The Henna Artist’ Alka Joshi has officially become an instant-buy author for me. I adore her writing and I love her characters. I’d like to thank Harper Collins for sending me an ARC of The Secret Keeper of Jaipur! Set twelve years after the events of The Henna Artist, […]
