Why Did I Read? It sounds so magical and exciting! It sounded just like something I’d love. My Thoughts: Caraval is seriously one of the most hyped books of 2017. It was hyped last year at BEA and the hype only grew as more people read and raved about it. I really meant to get to this way earlier, it was one of my top books from BEA that I wanted!

My Thoughts: I really, really loved this one, you guys! So Devon is your average high school senior — she’s trying to […]

TWENTY-THREE AND A HALF HOURS. I loved every second of it and fell into such a book slump after this book because I not only missed the world and the characters but I missed their voices. Rebecca Soler is amazing. She captured each character perfectly and it definitely enhanced […]
