The Prison Healer was a unique young adult fantasy read but I probably won’t finish the trilogy. I’d rate it a 3.6/5 stars. Have you read it? Do you agree or disagree? Here’s my thoughts live while reading: Kiva is a young (17?) year old healer in a prison and is looked down upon byContinue reading “Review #350”

Review #349
I rated this steampunk historical fantasy a 3.5/5 stars. I’m willing to try more of this genre but needed one at a faster pace. Here’s my live comments while reading: Lucy is our main character and she’s on the way to visit her cousin who is newly married into the infamous Blackwell family. Their manorContinue reading “Review #349”
The Sea Witch
I rated this one a 3/5 but Katee Robert is so popular that everyone who is a fan and craves her books gives her a 5/5! (First person present tense, dual POV) Once upon a time, I met a man who stole my heart. In my desperation to reunite with him, I have nowhere toContinue reading “The Sea Witch”

“Mouth to Mouth” received a 3.9/5 stars from me. I’m unsure if it’s considered “suspense” or a different genre. Two college acquaintances randomly meet at an airport at age 43ish and one of them opens up about a major life-altering event from 20 years ago that he hadn’t told anyone else in his entire life.Continue reading “Review #332”
Review #329
I really liked another book by this author but they’re both very YA feeling. Obviously that’s the intended genre, but the topic of the post-divorce issues of her parents aren’t my cup of tea. I gave this YA contemporary called, “Spells and Lost Things” a 3.8/5 stars. Here’s my thoughts while reading: I love howContinue reading “Review #329”
Review #327
I felt like “The Dictionary of Lost Words” was too slow and gave it a 3/5 stars. There’s some comments below from when I was reading but honestly I don’t have much to say. Here’s the blurb: Esme is born into a world of words. Motherless and irrepressibly curious, she spends her childhood in theContinue reading “Review #327”
Review #324
I gave this holiday standalone romance a 3.1/5 stars. Well I kind of hated everything about the first chapter. Social media. To hashtags. To magazine covers. To trending clothes. To expensive gifts. To celebrities. To spoiled brats. To pity parties. And the author is laying it on THICK. Like it doesn’t need to be repeatedContinue reading “Review #324”
Review #321
The cover is breath-taking. But I’m giving this mermaid-esque fantasy novel a 2.9/5 stars. I read the first novel in this series many months ago but I’m immediately overwhelmed by too many names being dropped by page 2. To be reintroduced to all of these all at once is a bit too much too fast:Continue reading “Review #321”
Review #319
Well, “The Shadow in the Glass” started out so well but I’d give it a 3/5 stars because I skimmed pages 200-370 to get the gist of it. First of all, I wouldn’t have marketed it as a Cinderella story. Not at all. I agree with the gothic vibe, but none of the Cinderella-esque feelsContinue reading “Review #319”
Review #311
I’ll give this one a 3.2/5 stars but technically I didn’t finish. 200+ pages is still a good chunk to write a review. Unfortunately at the halfway mark I started skimming ahead. I didn’t find all 3 answers I was looking for, but the ones I did find felt anticlimactic and a little disappointing. IContinue reading “Review #311”
