Light Enough To Float by Lauren Seal

This was such a sad, and in the end, hopeful novel in verse. I loved this. Evie has just been diagnosed with anorexia, and immediately admitted into an inpatient treatment facility. She desperately wants to leave, to go home. But her doctors refuse until she’s healthier. Everyday is full of calorie loading and therapy sessions,Continue reading “Light Enough To Float by Lauren Seal”

Shatter Me by Tahereh Mafi

So, I wasn’t the biggest fan of this, but I didn’t hate it, and I think I’ll continue with the series. Just remember to keep in mind, there are some things in this book that haven’t aged well, given it was released in 2011. Juliette has been locked away for 264 days. She’s never knownContinue reading “Shatter Me by Tahereh Mafi”

Snowglobe by Soyoung Park, Joungmin Lee Comfort (translator)

This was definitely a fun read, reminiscent of The Hunger Games. While Earth was once colorful and vibrant, the planet has now been reduced to a never ending winter, with temperatures sometimes staying as low as -70 °F. However there is one exception, a city built on a rare geothermal source called Snowglobe. To liveContinue reading “Snowglobe by Soyoung Park, Joungmin Lee Comfort (translator)”

The Wildest Things by Andrea Hannah

Thank you to Netgalley for an advanced reader’s copy in exchange for an honest review. I’ve had my eye on this one for a while, and was so excited when I got approved for an arc! It’s a sapphic dark fantasy retelling of Snow White. While I did enjoy this book, it took me aContinue reading “The Wildest Things by Andrea Hannah”

Heartless Hunter by Kristen Ciccarelli

I kinda loved this, and I will impatiently wait for the sequel. Two years ago, a bloody revolt occurred, and the three witch queens were killed, and anyone suspected of being a witch was stripped naked in the streets to search for the telltale silver casting scars. Rune’s grandmother was one of the witches killedContinue reading “Heartless Hunter by Kristen Ciccarelli”

Say A Little Prayer by Jenna Voris

Thank you to Netgalley for providing an Advanced Reader Copy of this book in exchange for an honest review. This was super cute! I loved that the main character actually felt real for a seventeen year old. She was silly, and immature, and that made this book all the better. Riley used to be theContinue reading “Say A Little Prayer by Jenna Voris”

Make My Wish Come True by Alyson Derrick and Rachael Lippincott

Thank you to Netgalley for giving me an advanced reader’s copy in exchange for an honest review. I’m so glad I was able to read this book early! It was super cute.

When this reputation messesContinue reading “Make My Wish Come True by Alyson Derrick and Rachael Lippincott”

Shadow and Bone by Leigh Bardugo

This was just an okay book. Though, I did enjoy the second half better than the first. The country of Ravka has long been at war, and long been divided by the Shadow Fold, a scar of darkness filled with horrifying monsters. Many people don’t survive the trip through it. Our main character, Alina, mustContinue reading “Shadow and Bone by Leigh Bardugo”

This Fatal Kiss by Alicia Jasinska

Thank you to Netgalley for an advanced reader copy. I really liked this. The only thing that felt a little weird was the unspecified time period, but even that part was enjoyable. Gisela is one of the rusałki—the spirits of girls who died violent deaths in bodies of water—who desperately wants to regain her humanity.Continue reading “This Fatal Kiss by Alicia Jasinska”

Breathe and Count Back From Ten by Natalia Sylvester

This is an amazing book. Five shining stars from me. Verónica is a Peruvian-American teen with hip dysplasia. Swimming started out as a way to ease the pain from her hip, but now the pool is her safe space. Verónica is amazed by the mermaids at Mermaid Cove, her small Florida town’s claim to fame.Continue reading “Breathe and Count Back From Ten by Natalia Sylvester”
