ARC Review? Well, I finally did it: I cancelled my Kindle Unlimited subscription. I receive not many, but a few requests to do ARCs. Honestly, as I'm becoming more involved in the book world and trying to write some things of my own, I really wanted to try reviewing some ARCs. ★★★★ Crossing Acheron by … Continue reading ARC Review: Crossing Acheron by HG Bride
Book Review | What Lies Beyond the Veil
First, I went into this book expecting nothing and got something?? Honestly, I tend to be critical in my reviews, but man they tore this one up on goodreads lol. The plot is ok: a protective veil guarding the humans and fae shatters, resulting in the fae flocking to find their mates. ★★★ "There was … Continue reading Book Review | What Lies Beyond the Veil
Book Review | Fourth Wing | The Most-Hyped Book of the Year
Pride and Prejudice only has a 4.2. Lord of the Rings has a 4.4. A Court of Thorns and Roses, which is oft-compared to Fourth Wing (a comparison about which I have MANY opinions) has a 4.2. What in the world is up with all this hype for Fourth Wing??
I Found a Zodiac Academy Dupe That I Actually Like
Arguably, my most popular blog post ever is my absolute evisceration of Zodiac Academy. I hated it. A lot.

Book Review | Godkiller
A perfect fantasy book, in the archetypal sense: perfectly plotted, familiar yet creative. It reminded me why I fell in love with reading in the first place. Here's why.
Zodiac Academy | Series Review
I was finally bullied (haha, irony intended) into reading beyond the first Zodiac Academy book. Time to dismantle the disclaimer and gleefully tell you why I dislike the series so much.
Book Review | Bloodmarked
I CANNOT BELIEVE THE CLIFFHANGER THIS BOOK ENDED ON...
Book Review | The Atlas Paradox
Somehow, the sequel lived up to the unimaginable standard of its dark academia predecessor.
Book Review | Babel
Babel is the boldest indictment of the evils of English academia I've read to date. That's what I was waiting for, though, through The Secret History, If We Were Villains, The Atlas Six, and even Legendborn: violence.
