Let me start off by saying that this series is supremely hard to review. What do I say that will describe the epicness that is this fantasy series? How can I tell you about how this series captured my heart and my emotions and a little bit of my soul? How do I explain how Melina Marchetta’s words are like magic?

The Sound: I thought the narrator Phoebe Strole was fantastic. I feel like all the emotion was transferred so well into Emmy’s voice! I loved listening to this one.

Anyway, Ally and her family are struggling financially due to her father’s […]
This series was my gateway drug to historical romance!! So many of my book friends love historical romance and Lisa Kleypas and it took me forever to get around to reading her. Then I picked up her Wallflowers series and binged all five books in a week. I JUST LOVED. The series is set in the 1800s in England and features a group of four girls who are “wallflowers”. For one reason or another, they are having issues capturing a respectable […]
