Review: Avalanche

September 21, 2020June 20, 20212 Comments

A trip like that is exactly what Matt was hoping for—a fun adventure. A daring escape. A once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to go cross country skiing in a thrilling but dangerous pass through the Rocky Mountains. The perfect way for Matt to forget about his disappointing father and maybe let loose a little with his best friend … Continue reading Review: Avalanche

How to Be a Reader

September 18, 20205 Comments

Readers are sometimes born, and other times they're made. I feel like I was a mix of both. I have a vast imagination that would have led me to wanting to discover new worlds that existed only in books, but I was also heavily influenced by my mom and her love of reading. So for … Continue reading How to Be a Reader

Book vs. Movie: Our Chemical Hearts

September 12, 20203 Comments

Welcome to another edition of Book vs. Movie, book nerds! Within a few days, I read Our Chemical Hearts by Krystal Sutherland and then watched the film adaptation on Amazon Prime. The movie being the reason I decided to bump up the book on my TBR list (that's usually a good motivator, especially when the … Continue reading Book vs. Movie: Our Chemical Hearts

7 Authors That I Love

September 11, 2020September 11, 20201 Comment

Favorite authors. That's always a fun topic. We all have them, and for our own reasons. Usually it's because we always like their books, but sometimes it can be because we like them as human beings or their writing style. It could also be that we know them on a personal level too, though that's … Continue reading 7 Authors That I Love

Review: Our Chemical Hearts

September 8, 2020June 20, 2021Leave a comment

Henry Page has never been in love. He fancies himself a hopeless romantic, but the slo-mo, heart palpitating, can't-eat-can't-sleep kind of love that he's been hoping for just hasn't been in the cards for him-at least not yet. Instead, he's been happy to focus on his grades, on getting into a semi-decent college and finally … Continue reading Review: Our Chemical Hearts

Relatable Bookish Memes #1

September 4, 20202 Comments

Here is a fun little series I'd like to start up. We see these bookish/reading memes all the time on Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram, but even so, they're always fun to reshare. So I figured I'd start this as an ongoing series post for my blog (which really helps for when I'm behind on writing … Continue reading Relatable Bookish Memes #1

August Wrap Up

September 1, 2020August 31, 2020Leave a comment

August, to put it simply... was a bust. For the entire 31 days of the month I managed to read one book. ONE. BOOK. I know it's nothing to be ashamed of, it just kind of shocks me that I wasn't able to pull out of my reading slump as quickly as usual. And to … Continue reading August Wrap Up

Just some of my recent bookish purchases 🙃
To quote Hamlet, Act III, Scene III, Line 87… “No.”
Happy #FantasyFriday! What is one of your favorite fantasy books/series?
Took me a while to read this one because I was in a sort-of depression, but I got through it and enjoyed it. Now that I’m feeling a little more like myself, I’m getting reviews back up on the blog and the review for As If On Cue is up now!
I’m already loving Last Chance Books, and I wish I didn’t have work today so I could just keep on reading! 🤓
Who’s one of your auto-read authors? So far, I’ve loved all of Jennifer E. Smith’s books (that I’ve read anyway) 🙃
