Many thanks to Jason Latshaw, who reached out to me on Instagram wondering if I’d be interested in reading and reviewing his book. I said yes and I’m so glad I did. All thoughts, feelings, and ratings here are my own! Jason Latshaw grew up in Pennsylvania and worked for J.P. Morgan after college. But…… Continue reading ARC Review: The Threat Below by J.S.

The Beauty and the Beast Book Tag
Beauty and the Beast has always had a special place in my heart. Belle is my favorite Disney princess, someone who is bookish, nerdy, and odd like me. I feel like she is a kindred spirit to me, so I was happy to find this tag on the blog, This Splendid Shambles. It was originally…… Continue reading The Beauty and the Beast Book Tag
Book List: Criminal Romance
My last book list was romances where the love interest was rich. But what if the love interest was on the other side of the law? Make sure to check the trigger warnings of these! Transcending Darkness by Airicka Phoenix Genre: Romance Average Goodreads Rating: 4.11 Juliette Romero had a debt to pay, a debt…… Continue reading Book List: Criminal Romance
Book List: Billionaire Romance
Taking a break from all the magical and fantastical recommendations to give you a list of romances to read this fall. Why not imagine yourself as the protagonist falling in love with a rich person? It might go against all my feminist beliefs, but sometimes the idea of marrying rich and not having to do…… Continue reading Book List: Billionaire Romance
Book Lists: Royalty
Princesscore. Royalcore. Secret Heir. Secret Royal. Prince Charming. We’ve grown up with stories of princesses in locked towers and princes on white steeds. We’ve played video games where queens send us on quests or the royal princess is kidnapped by the beast. Naturally, we’d want to read books with these kind of archetypes–especially those that…… Continue reading Book Lists: Royalty
Book List: Dark Academia
Fall is the perfect time to dive into dark academia books. These are books with an emphasis in knowledge, literature, and the arts but with much darker tones and can be somewhat pessimistic towards humanity, though I find them inspiring and cozy. The Secret History by Donna Tart Genre: Mystery Average Goodreads Rating: 4.15 At…… Continue reading Book List: Dark Academia

Like I said before, it might be a tad early, but it’s nearly that time of year again. Spooky season is the best season and the perfect time for witchy reads. The Very Secret Society of Irregular Witches by Sangu Mandanna Genre: Fantasy Average Goodreads Rating: 4.38 Mika is a witch but she knows to…… Continue reading Book List: Witches
Book List: Werewolves
Happy pumpkin spice season! Autumn (or close enough) is here and it’s my favorite season. It’s time to read spooky books, cozy books, and books with monsters, of course. What kind of monsters do you think of? Some of the monsters I know howl at the moon. Shiver by Maggie Stiefvater Genre: YA Fantasy Average…… Continue reading Book List: Werewolves
Book Review: Where the Crawdads Sing (Corsair)
For the past couple of years, it seemed like everyone was raving about this book. Last year, I picked it up because it was on sale and I had heard of it, but not knowing what it was about I put it to the side to collect dust. But now the movie is out and…… Continue reading Book Review: Where the Crawdads Sing (Corsair)
Book Review: Extasia by Claire Legrand (Katherine Tegan Books)
Last month, I ordered a one-time book box from the Unplugged Book Box. They are a book box focused on self-care, and in it I recieved beautiful smelling lotion and perfume as well as a copy of Extasia by Claire Legrand (published by Katherine Tegan Books). Due to the packaging, it made the read even…… Continue reading Book Review: Extasia by Claire Legrand (Katherine Tegan Books)
