Why Did I Read? Well, I love retellings and I also love all things fandom so this was basically a match made in heaven! My Thoughts: I loved this book so much! It’s definitely one of my top favorites of the year. I remember feeling like I just wanted to cry because of how much I loved it. One of the biggest reasons is the aspect of fandom.

I am not a huge fan of baseball in real life but really love baseball in books! I think I just like seeing the love that characters, in this instance, Eric, have for the sport. Eric has been struggling a bit, especially with his brother gone […]
Why Did I Read? Vlad the Impaler story with a badass female lead? Historical fiction? I was so in. My Thoughts: I have really complicated feelings about this book. I really liked most parts of it but some parts really dragged and left me feeling underwhelmed. The book starts off with our main character Lada as a young child growing up — we see that from a young age she is already fierce, strong and determined. She has a will […]
