Review: How to Make Friends with the Dark by Kathleen Glasgow
This book hit entirely too close to home, it is absolutely heartbreaking & touches on very tough subjects. On my tbr since it's 2019 release & while I'd stopped reading YA many years prior I like this author so I decided to read it anyway. While this book is YA it still touches on very...

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: 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. The Glass Girl by Kathleen Glasgow Category – YA Contemporary Length – 465 Pages... Continue Reading →
Review: How to Survive Your Murder by Danielle Valentine

It's a quick read & despite the dark subject not heavy, let's review. How to Survive Your Murder by... Continue Reading →
Review: Everything We Never Said by Sloan Harlow

I could not get past the feeling that I'd somehow already read this book before, anyway let's review. Everything We Never... Continue Reading →

Well, I'm close to a full year late to this review, I finished this series at a time where I was already way behind on reviews, extra busy at the "9-5" & in the beginning stage of a reading slump. It's been a while but let's review. Girls of Paper and Fire: a series by... Continue Reading →
