Emma is a coder, not a lover. In fact, she feels like math is more reliable than people. Now in her senior year, she's got her eyes set on getting into Stanford University and along with her co-president, George, taking their coding club to win the states this year. So when her sister inadvertently gives … Continue reading Review: The Code for Love and Heartbreak
Happy New Year everyone! How happy are you all that it's 2021? I'm just excited for the start of a new year because, aside from the obvious, I love the feeling of being in a new year. I'm not usually one to make resolutions as I'm never able to keep them, but I do like … Continue reading Lucky 13 Reading Challenge
Congratulations everyone! We finished the fifth year of 2020! While I know everything won't magically get better when the clock hits midnight, it's nice to think that 2021 is a fresh start. New year, new goals (well, reading goals), and honestly, I'm just a fan of odd numbered years. Maybe because my birthday is literally … Continue reading December Wrap Up

I'm one of those people who loves rereading books. After all, it's not like books are meant to be read once, and when you really love a book, why wouldn't you want to revisit it at some point in your life? I like to revisit Harry Potter every now and then because it brings a … Continue reading Books I’d Like to Revisit
A few months before Ruby turns eighteen, her mother leaves, though Ruby doesn't see this as an issue. Her mom often disappears, so it's nothing out of the ordinary. Only this time, her mother doesn't come back and Ruby is on her own. It's not long before she's busted for living alone and is sent … Continue reading Review: Lock & Key
Can you believe it's mid-December already? I feel like this month is going by quicker than most, which is saying something for 2020. Most months lasted at least a year, right? I'm sorta glad for it though, not only because I'm ready for a new year, but because I've had my Christmas shopping done for … Continue reading 21 Books I Want to Read in 2021
A book featuring a (selective) mute character and a deaf character? Sign me up! Neither one of these are represented much in fiction, so it's refreshing to find an author that does it and does it well. Steffi is a selective mute, which doesn't mean that she chooses to be mute. It's more that she's … Continue reading Review: A Quiet Kind of Thunder
I'm usually all for boarding school novels, that's why I picked this one up. Especially since there are students, Jules and new student Jamie, that want to just survive this year of school as well as expose the academy's dirty secrets and traditions. There are hints right away as to what some of the major … Continue reading Review: Tradition
Is it really a surprise that the bookish community has its own language? No, not really. After all, we read a lot, so why wouldn't we have our own bookish terms to go along with our social media (and sometimes in-person) community? A lot of the terms are acronyms, which are usually easy to figure … Continue reading How to Speak Book Nerd
I found this book by accident at work (perks of being a librarian) and it was while I was reading Vincent and Theo, so I had to pick it up! It was one of those books that I knew I'd enjoy, but I underestimated how much I would! I read it in one day - … Continue reading Review: The Van Gogh Deception
I'm guilty of doing this, so I'm not coming down on anyone. For the longest time, actually, I would just refer to Young Adult books as a genre of books. The problem with calling YA a genre is the fact that it's not really a genre. It's an audience target. Much like children's books are … Continue reading We Need to Stop Calling YA a Genre
Lila Reyes had it all planned, until the trifecta of losses happened. First, her grandmother passed away, then her boyfriend broke up with her right before prom, and the last blow... her best friend told Lila she's not staying in Miami and is going abroad. So, of course, Lila has a breakdown of sorts, and … Continue reading Review: A Cuban Girl’s Guide to Tea and Tomorrow
It took a while, but I finally got my reading mojo back! Now I'm in the mood to read all the books, but have little time to read as many as I'm wanting to. I do think I'll be able to get a decent amount in, especially because December means that I read children's Christmas … Continue reading November Wrap Up
Hello and Happy December everyone! Despite all that's going on in the world, I'm actually excited for the Christmas season, probably because it's the spirit of giving that's taking over right now. I'm actually having a hard time limiting myself on what I'm gifting my friends and family because, ya know, I still have bills … Continue reading Reindeer Readathon: TBR Prospects
