The Swamps by Seraphina Nova Glass
5 Stars I swear I would read this author’s grocery list given the chance, everything she writes is so dang good. I love any book that’s based in Louisiana and coupled with her fantastic writing style I had a blast reading this. It read insanely fast, I flew through in…

The Unwritten Rules of Magic by Harper Ross
4 Stars Wow, I was not expecting this book to be as deep as it was or to hit me in my feels but I really, really enjoyed this. While I definitely didn’t always love the characters, especially Emerson and her mom, I can appreciate why the characters were written…

All the Little Houses by May Cobb
2 Stars Holy moly this was so bad. I have thoroughly enjoyed almost every book I’ve read by this author but this book actually gave me a headache. First of all there were so many characters that I had a hard time keeping track of everyone. And while I expected…

A Box Full of Darkness by Simone St. James
5 Stars Once again Miss Simone St. James manages to scare the pants off me with an amazingly, spooky, drama-filled book that I couldn’t put down. There were so many moments that I was legitimately spooked and freaked out and wished I hadn’t been reading this in the dark. I…

Cross Your Heart and Hope He Dies by Jenny Elder Moke
2 Stars I was so excited for a romcom with a mystery element but this was so bad. I didn’t like Juliette from the beginning but then she got even more pushy and self-centered and talked way too much about her libido. I honestly skimmed through a lot of this.…

The Book of Blood and Roses by Annie Summerlee
3 Stars I think I set my expectations way to high with this book whether it was from the gorgeous cover or the premise but it let me down. I was really into the story at the beginning and was liking the writing but then I found myself growing bored.…

Is This A Cry for Help? by Emily Austin
3 Stars While I didn’t really vibe with the author’s writing style I did appreciate how much I learned from it especially about libraries. I loved the main character so much and honestly wanted to give her a hug. There were parts of the story that I enjoyed more than…

A Killer Kind of Romance by Letizia Lorini
5 Stars I’m not sure how to put into words how much I loved this book. I was hooked from the very beginning and could not put this down. I loved how bookish Scarlett was and all of her adorable quirks that reminded me so much of myself. I loved…

This Is Not A Test by Courtney Summers
2 Stars Sadly I’m starting to think this author was a one-hit wonder for me since I haven’t enjoyed any of her books since Sadie. I understand this is YA but the constant petty bickering in the group was driving me insane and so many parts of this story felt…

Hollow by Celina Myers
3 Stars Just once I would love to read a vampire book that didn’t reference Twilight or The Vampire Diaries. That aside I did like this book at the very beginning but the mediocre writing grew worse the more I read. Also most of the characters acted like high schoolers…
