Since You’ve Been Gone was the first book I’ve read by Morgan Matson and it definitely won’t be my last! In fact, I really need to go devour her other books now because I LOVED Since You’ve Been Gone! It was so relatable and I couldn’t stop thinking about it after I finished! Oh, and did I mention I finished it at like 4:30 a.m? Yes. I couldn’t put it down! I’m usually more of a fantasy gal, so it did surprise […]

The Fault in Our Stars is something I’ve put off reading for forever. The subject matter scared me! Kids and cancer. That is a recipe for heart aching disaster for me and for my heart’s sake, I put it off. However, with the movie coming out and all, I wanted to read it before watching it. I mentally braced myself.

Let me just start off by saying that I LOVED this book to pieces!! Back in the day, fantasy and high fantasy was all I ever read. When I was younger I used to write — short stories, beginnings of stories, etc — and almost always it would be fantasy. It’s the first genre I loved and is still the genre that I love the most. However, I haven’t read much fantasy lately! It’s a shame. Throne of Glass reminded […]

I’m not very into politics. I have a tendency to stay out of strongly political conversations. But when Netgalley emailed me about this one, I was intrigued by the point of view of a girl smack dab in the middle of all of this. I decided to check it out and I’m glad I did! In The Tyrant’s Daughter, Laila along with her six year old brother and mother have fled their home after the murder of her father. In the […]
