Why Did I Read? I love fairy tale retellings. Every time that’s in a blurb, I’m like I need it! My Thoughts: I really loved the first half of this book! This Snow White retelling was super original and had some really fascinating aspects and twists on the classic Snow White fairytale. That’s my favorite part about retellings — seeing the unique twists that authors come up with and how they fit into this brand new story and still seeing […]

My Thoughts: I love the Heartbreaker series! I was so happy to dive into Kylie and Joe’s story! We have seen the two in the previous books and now we get to learn more about their individual back stories. Kylie is this old soul, who was raised by her grandfather, and is an amazing wood worker! I loved her- she’s independent and sassy and doesn’t take crap from anyone. She’s someone that Joe can’t get out of his head but […]

Review: The Knowing by Sharon Cameron

Why Did I Read? I loved The Forgetting and was ecstatic to learn that there would be a companion novel! My Thoughts: The Knowing takes place hundreds of years after the events of The Forgetting and there have been a lot of things happening since then! Right off the bat, you realize that this new society in New Canaan is something different and there are people who Know and they are different and special and never forget. It sort of spins what we […]
