I have been spending less time in the YA community lately, as part of my ‘stepping back’ from both reviewing and the online community in general. Subsequently, I’ve been spending more time in the indie adult book community. Specifically, I’ve been interacting more with readers who devour indie published books. The ravenous readers. As this […]

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 […]
You Have a Match by Emma Lord
The title and cover of this book are a bit misleading, and led me to think this was going to be some kind of romance-centric plot similar to You’ve Got Mail. But I am SO glad I read the blurb, because it’s not just about a summer romance: it’s about a secret sister – a […]

Daughter of the Siren Queen (Daughter of the Pirate King #2) by Tricia Levenseller
I really enjoyed the first book of this duology, Daughter of the Pirate King, and I’m lucky enough that my local library has both of these books available to borrow on audio. I borrowed Siren Queen before I even finished Pirate King, because I knew I wanted to dive (get it? DIVE? lol) right into […]
Daughter of the Pirate King by Tricia Levenseller
I generally don’t enjoy books that dump the reader with an already super-powered, super-confident arrogant and entitled lead character with minimal room to grow. However, Alosa is remarkably different to this brand of heroine, and I couldn’t help but love her. Is she super-powered? Yes. Is she super confident? Yes. Is she arrogant? Sometimes, but […]
