Review: My Sister’s Keeper by Jodi Picoult
Some stories just break your heart so completely. Technically I had a 4 day read time on this book but I put it down for over a month in-between reading. Part short reading slump but also part I was literally just too busy to have a moment to read more than a single page. Hate... Continue Reading →
Review: Home Before Dark by Riley Sager
I was expecting a different kind of spooky scary here. I went into reading this book blind, no synopsis, no reviews, nothing but vibes. Added this book to my tbr & read it off the strength that I've really enjoyed this authors other works, & although I was expecting a completely different kind of spooky... Continue Reading →

Trigger warning for child neglect & abuse, sexual abuse, incest, grooming, insinuation of suicide, self-harm, cannibalism. Let's review. Earthlings by Sayaka Murata Category – Contemporary Fiction - Japanese Length... Continue Reading →
Review: The Glass Girl by Kathleen Glasgow
Categorized as young adult, this is a tough read. Trigger warnings, depression, suicidal ideology, grief, alcohol abuse, self-harm, implied sexual abuse, violence. While I personally believe this book to be appropriate for teens it is a heavy subject & shouldn't be taken lightly.

Review: The 7 1/2 Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle
I finally got around to reading this book after it was recommended by a fellow bibliophile at my day job. We periodically share our recent reads & ratings & this book was mentioned but when I went to add it to my tbr, there it was already. Tehe. Funny how that happens so often, not... Continue Reading →
Review: The Perfect Marriage by Jeneva Rose
I'm not saying this book wasn't good, it was! I was absolutely engrossed in the story, turning page after page I could not put the book down once I got to reading. However, I guessed the plot very early on & I hate when that happens. Regardless, still a read I definitely recommend for the... Continue Reading →
