I don’t know what to say about this book that I didn’t already say about its predecessor, Bone Crier’s Moon. I absolutely loved it. The conflicts were all so wonderfully customised to the characters, the characters were all beautiful and I would die for them with excellent relationship development, and even the romances were really […]

Bone Crier’s Moon By Kathryn Purdie Hits Every Target
Très magnifique! Bone Crier’s Moon is a really good example of why, even if you didn’t enjoy the author’s first book, sometimes giving a chance to their next series can show remarkable improvement. I was a little reluctant to read the book only because I hadn’t enjoyed Burning Glass and I was a little put […]
What We Devour by Linsey Miller
Linsey Miller is a very special author who produces books that can never be described as generic YA fantasy. This book had so much going for it: incredible worldbuilding, unforced yet passionate diversity, a ruthless yet moral lead character, disability rep, a gender-fluid character whose pronouns kept changing with no explanation (which I found really […]
You Must Not Miss by Katrina Leno
I quite enjoyed this book. It was suspenseful, probably even bordering on horror, with a sprinkling of magical realism. I liked the atmospheric writing style. It was suspenseful and evocative, and I found it engaging and entertaining. I like the word choices and how the author kept the audience in suspense for most of the […]
Hocus Pocus and the All-New Sequel by A.W. Jantha
Watching Hocus Pocus every Halloween is one of my favourite family traditions. I have loved this cult classic ever since I first saw it when I was about 8 years old, and I’m pretty sure Binx is the reason I have 3 black cats. It’s not even Halloween season, but I needed a new audiobook, […]
Girls With Rebel Souls (Girls With Sharp Sticks #3) by Suzanne Young
Since this is the third book in a series I cannot talk about this book without spoilers. I am obsessed with this book series. I listened to the whole thing on audio, and I absolutely love it. The first book is so subversive. The second book makes you want to cheer. However this third book… […]
The Midnight Girls by Alicia Jasinska
I am so happy I got to finish 2021 with an amazing read. I was truly impressed with this book and I enjoyed every minute of it. I listened to it on audio and I was enjoying it so much that I went and bought a hard copy before I even finished the book, and […]
Girls With Razor Hearts (Girls With Sharp Sticks #2) by Suzanne Young
I just love this series. I love these girls and their fierce friendships. I love their sense of morality. I love that even though they can disagree and fight with one another, they still love each other above all else. I think they are all so precious and I was an anxious wreck the entire […]
Girls With Sharp Sticks by Suzanne Young
I thought this book was phenomenal. It had everything I ever wanted. Amazingly strong, lovely female friendship and no backstabbing. Sweet yet realistic boy that isn’t required to save anyone because they save themselves An intelligent heroine I also thought this was plotted beautifully and really reminded me of Plato’s allegory of the cave. It […]
A Line in the Dark by Malinda Lo
I quite enjoyed this book, though there are a couple of things that I do have issues with. First I’ll talk about the good things: It’s queer and there is no judgement or hate for the queer characters. Jess’s mother, who is Chinese, even says, “If you’re a lesbian, that’ s not a problem.” Jess […]
