Let’s Pretend || The Fine Art of Pretending by Rachel Harris

Let’s Pretend || The Fine Art of Pretending by Rachel Harris

Why Did I Read? It’s a Rachel Harris book! And the fake relationship is one of my favorite tropes. This was my first BEA read. 🙂 My Thoughts: How does Rachel Harris do it? How?? She captures the teen voice so well! She also has a writing style that just sweeps you up into the story with descriptions that just make you feel like you are in the book and wholly invested in the characters! In The Fine Art of Pretending […]

Why Did I Read? It’s the long awaited third book in one of my all time FAVORITE fantasy series!! I waited for 2.5 hours in line for this ARC at BEA and I didn’t even mind the wait.  My Thoughts (There will be no spoilers for Heir of Fire but there will be spoilers from the first two books!) Heir of Fire is very different from the first two books in the series. It’s quieter and focuses a lot on characterization […]

Firstly, I’ve heard a lot about this one, all great things and also warnings about reading with tissues. Everything I heard was true. I already knew this was going to be a tough, emotional read just given the content. […]

Sometimes I don’t get a chance to review all the books I read, so I thought doing something like review bites could highlight the books I’ve read but haven’t reviewed. Sort of like brownie bites, review bites are a bite sized review! 🙂 Maybe Someday was my first Colleen Hoover book! (I know, I know — I’m working on it!) I picked it up at the store, on a whim, and read it in one sitting! Maybe Someday is especially […]

Perfection. Utter perfection. How was Ruin and Rising so brilliantly perfect?? Did I just use the word perfect three times in three sentences? Sorry not sorry. I have to admit, I started this with a twinge of nervousness. Series enders are tricky and I have been disappointed by trilogy enders before! I didn’t need to worry because I adored this! First of all, the Grisha world with its Russian themes is freaking awesome. The world building is astounding, as I’m […]
