Books, Reading, and everything in between
Recently, my mood has been wanting more science fiction and I'm not mad about it because I've got some lovely sci-fi lined up for myself that I think my mood will most definitely appreciate. I decided to dive into the second book in Becky Chambers's Wayfarer series, and I have to admit that it really [...]
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 [...]
Who are you and how did you slip through the pub day cracks? Because you're an exquisite book with lots of action/adventure, a little love story, and a ton of magic that somehow flew under the radar and needs way more love than it's getting. Here's more about Sing Me Forgotten Isda does not exist. [...]
A Song Below Water is the Fantasy Book Club February pick. It's an urban fantasy about two young Black sisters who have big secrets they have to hide in a world that's unforgiving to folks who aren't "normal." It was an interesting take and I can't wait to talk all about it. Here's More About [...]

This goes double when friends who don't have a bookstagram account are telling you to read the [...]
I wanted to read something different than I normally read, so I picked up The Project by Courtney Summers. I had read Sadie from Courtney Summers a few years ago and remember really liking it, so I wanted to see if this one would be just as good. While it didn't read like a thriller, [...]
I thought this book was such a dreamy story. It made me feel like all my magical dreams were coming true. Star people who live up in the heavens and a young girl who finds out she's got a destiny much bigger than her dreams of college and dating. Also, it's own voices with some [...]
Finally! I finished a book! It was the fourth book of the year and probably the last book I'll read in January, but I'm just happy to finally have enough mind space to finish a book. I think it helped that the book was super light-hearted with a tiny bit of drama. For some reason, [...]
It feels like ages since I've written book reviews for the blog, but this year I decided to make my blog a place where I can store all of them. I'm still using Goodreads, but I much prefer having my own system of collecting my book reviews digitally and I want that to live on [...]
