I’ve already had such a deep relationship with this book because I spent so much time with it. It took me nearly two weeks to read and part of that was my mental health, but the other part was because the story was deeply rich, complex, filled with twists and turns that pretty much start…

No, this isn’t some salacious post about Sarah J Maas or the ACOTAR series. I’m just over her books and wanted to come on here and talk about why. This post isn’t a drag. This is just a reader who’s grown out of Sarah J Maas and her work. If you’re new to the fantasy…

I had a lot of high hopes for this one because I love Seanan McGuire’s writing and work. Sadly, that wasn’t the case. And although there were bits and pieces I really enjoyed, there were parts of the experience that left me confused and wanting. Here’s More About Across the Green Grass Fields “Welcome to…
