Bookish Playlist: Friends to Lovers

Another day, another playlist. Though I know some think of friends to lovers as a boring trope, I’ve always thought it was cute. As a kid, I wished I lived next door to a cute boy my age that I could be friends with and eventually fall in love. Friends to lovers reminds me of…… Continue reading Bookish Playlist: Friends to Lovers

Book Lists: The Redemption Arc

My favorite trope of all time is when a character gets a redemption arc. It doesn’t even have to be the villain but it is so much better if it is. Think about how Crowley in Supernatural went from an antagonist to a lovable uncle who is a bit odd. Think of any character who…… Continue reading Book Lists: The Redemption Arc

Game of Thrones Book Tag

I found another book tag to do! Perhaps I’m doing all of this wrong by finding old tags and doing them, even though they’re outdated and I haven’t been tagged, but it’s fun for me so…I’m going to do it anyway! *spoilers ahead for: ACOTAR, Game of Thrones, Shadow and Bone I really wanted to…… Continue reading Game of Thrones Book Tag

Processed with VSCO with kc25 preset

I’ve been continuing on with the Grishaverse books to end June out. Last night, I finished King of Scars by Leigh Bardugo, published by ORION Children’s Books. It’s the first book in the latest duology of the universe. Unfortunately, I don’t have the next book, so finishing out the Grishaverse will have to wait. King…… Continue reading Book Review: King of Scars by Leigh Bardugo (ORION Children’s Books)

Bookish Playlist: Dystopian

It’s time for another book themed playlist! Today I will be focusing on a genre: dystopian. AKA a futuristic society where the government rules with a heavy hand and there is injustice. It’s one of my favorite sub-genres. I’m a Wanted Man-Royal Deluxe -This song has Rowan Damisch energy from Scythe Let Me Live/Let Me…… Continue reading Bookish Playlist: Dystopian

Book Review: Crooked Kingdom by Leigh Bardugo (ORION Children’s Books)

Processed with VSCO with kc25 preset

I stayed up until two am last night to finish the Six of Crows duology by Leigh Bardugo, published by ORION Children’s Books. If you’ve read my Six of Crows review, you know I loved it. Its sequel, Crooked Kingdom, continues the story of the Crows after the impossible heist and the enemies that double…… Continue reading Book Review: Crooked Kingdom by Leigh Bardugo (ORION Children’s Books)

Book Lists: Alpha Male Romance

Calling all romance readers! I have for you another list of book recommendations featuring the alpha male. An alpha male is a man who tries to assert dominance through arrogance and attention-seeking behaviors. Not necessarily the most attractive thing. However, in romance books, the alpha male is usually someone successful who can take on the…… Continue reading Book Lists: Alpha Male Romance

Book Review: Six of Crows by Leigh Bardugo (ORION Children’s Books)

If you’ve read my Shadow and Bone reviews, you’ll know that wasn’t a big fan of that trilogy. Still, I decided to read the next series, a duology from the same universe. I just finished the first book in the duology, Six of Crows by Leigh Bardugo (published by ORION Children’s books), and let me…… Continue reading Book Review: Six of Crows by Leigh Bardugo (ORION Children’s Books)

The Elements Book Cover Tag

I found this book tag on The Book Journal blog and decided I wanted to do it myself. The idea is you find books with covers that represent each of the elements. Typically, I would raid my bookshelves but as my books are somewhat limited while I’m in England (though, to be honest, I’ve bought…… Continue reading The Elements Book Cover Tag

Bookish Playlist: Divergent

It’s time again for another bookish playlist! I’m basing today’s playlist off of the Divergent trilogy by Veronica Roth. However, I’m going to do something a little different today. Instead of just giving a list of songs to represent the whole series, I’ll be dividing songs into which faction they represent. Which faction are you?…… Continue reading Bookish Playlist: Divergent
