July 2, 2020June 27, 2020 / Leslie / 6 Comments

I gave this 3 stars but it is GENEROUS! Okay, after writing my review, I'm dropping it to 2.5 stars. I know, I feel like it's such an unpopular opinion!! I really wanted to love this book.

I've had this book on my kindle for years. Honestly, I didn't know if I would ever pick it up! I'm so glad that I did! It was a really interesting story. I really wasn't sure where this book was going to take me, emotionally. It starts off so intense and it kind of stays … Continue reading Grave Mercy by Robin LaFevers

I. AM. SHOCKED. This is probably my least favorite C.C. book to date. I just checked- I'm rating this one the lowest of them all. Honestly, I had the biggest and highest expectations! One of my most anticipated releases because I love Cassandra and the Shadowhunter world. There were so many rave reviews and my … Continue reading Chain of Gold by Cassandra Clare

Daughter of Smoke and Bone by Laini Taylor

June 11, 2020June 3, 2020 / Leslie / 2 Comments

I've had this book for 8 years and haven't read it until now. WHY? My first book by Taylor was Strange the Dreamer, which I loved. It is so beautifully written. I was hoping to get more of that here and I did! It was interesting to me that this book is kind of split. … Continue reading Daughter of Smoke and Bone by Laini Taylor
