I don't have very strong feelings about it one way or the other.. it was just an okay read for me but I did like the tension that PD served up in this one. 

I still very much need to read more of her books because I do enjoy her writing style.

I absolutely adored this atmospheric, enchanting, entirely absorbing little story. 

With subtle yet distinct fantasy elements, a dash of fairytale vibes and a quiet sapphic relationship— I think all readers can find something to connect to & fall completely in love with! 

If you’re a sucker for stories with a fantasy quest, the best animal companions, and taking down a force of evil (aka an abusive husband), you will not want to miss out on this!!!!

This author is quickly becoming a favorite and I cannot wait to read more.

Anyone who has read Summers' previous work know that she is not one to shy away from writing stories focusing on difficult subject matter. I'm The Girl is no exception.

This bold, hard hitting and timely thriller follows sixteen year old Georgia after she discovers the lifeless body of a young teen girl in the woods. She teams up with the victim's older sister to track down the killer before he strikes again.What Georgia finds out might reveal more than she's ready to confront.

A truly powerful story by a masterful storyteller giving a voice to those seldom heard. Summers' writing flows so effortlessly that you're pulled in from the start and are gasping for air until the very last page. I finished this one with tears streaming down my face so be warned that it may do the same for you.

Please be sure to check trigger warnings due to the subject matter in this one. If you are one that appreciates an atmospheric, boundary pushing female narrative, and stories that will stick with you long after you are finished reading be sure not to miss this!!

debating between a 3/3.5

I didn’t love it as much as I thought I would, but I enjoyed it nonetheless. 

I adore fake dating and this one did not disappoint. We also have he falls first, a workplace romance, hate to love, one bed and my personal favorite— slow burn.

This was a gripping, tension filled, thrill of a rollercoaster ride!!!

Sundial jumps back and forth between timelines and mostly takes place in the past, so keep that in mind. 

The way I was actually confused and not entirely sure what was happening for a biiig chunk of this book😂 maybe that’s the genius of the story, to keep you on your toes and then B A M, Ward hits with the unexpected! 

I guess I can say that I quite enjoyed the culty vibes, and eerie isolated location. That always adds an extra layer of “scary” in my opinion. 

I’m interested in reading other reviews to see if anyone else was as confused as I was throughout reading this one lol. 

much like it’s cover, cleopatra and frankenstein is a work of art.✨

more thoughts to come.

It's no surprise that I loved yet another book by TJ Klune.

This second installment in the series dubbed as "Shrek erotica" was nothing short of all kinds of hilarious shenanigans amongst an eclectic group made up of a wizard's apprentice, the knight commander to the King, the sassiest-hornless-gay unicorn to ever exist, a half giant-half human precious little bean, and a perverted yet overly protective papa Dragon named Kevin.

The petty post breakup banter in here is amazing!!! We all know how snarky Gary can be, but add in Kevin & his snippy comments, you'll have a recipe for top tier comedy in a fantasy setting!!

TJK is a master at creating characters that you get wholeheartedly attached to. This makes me a bit nervous to see what is to come because the way A Destiny of Dragons ends?? It has me thinking sh!t is about to get real in the next book!! 

Here's hoping my heart comes out unscathed in the end (but I won't hold my breath, TJ).

With Cryptid Club, Sarah Anderson creates a stunning perspective allowing us to view the creatures we deem legendary, scary or supernatural, through a new lens.

What if aliens obsessed over the absolute cuteness of cows & maybe abducted one just to keep for themselves? What if a sleep paralysis demon was riddled with anxiety and just wanted to make a friend? What if you were told a complete love story existing within a few comic slides about how one ghostie met their soulmate at the morgue?

If you have asked yourself one of more of the previous questions, THIS GRAPHIC NOVEL IS FOR YOU!!!

And if you have never thought of said questions before in your life, THIS GRAPHIC NOVEL IS ALSO FOR YOU!!!

In this sweet, humorous, & quirky little book you'll come across some Taylor swift lyrics, aliens dabbing, a chupacabra who idolizes Dracula, and so much more to fall head over heels in love with. I absolutely adored every bit of Cryptid Club & highly recommend when you are in need of a lighthearted + spoopy good time!

Many thanks to net galley for the arc in exchange for an honest review!
