I was drawn to this novel because of the hit new TV show Killing Eve. I saw a trailer for the show ages ago and immediately knew I wanted to watch it – it looked so cool and featured some very strong female actresses! Now … I still haven’t gotten around to watching it because … life is busy and my…

Review: The Wicked King by Holly Black – The Folk of the Air #2
I have been sooooo excited to read this book, considering how much I adored The Cruel Prince! This book has also been highly anticipated by many Holly Black fans and others in the book community, so the hype was definitely there. I waited quite a while to read this book (even though the anticipation was KILLING me) because I didn’t want…
Review: When Dimple Met Rishi by Sandhya Menon – Dimple and Rishi #1
When I saw this title at my library, I knew I had to get my hands on this book. As an Indian-Canadian, I was really excited to read a book that showed what life is like for a child growing up “Indian” while being raised in a Western country. So here are my thoughts: My Review This book made me…
Review: Children of Daedala by Caighlan Smith – Children of Icarus #2
When I was approved for this title, I had not realized that it was part of a series. I went through a lot of trouble to order the first book Children of Icarus and read it prior to this one. You can find my review of the first book here. While I did not enjoy the first book, I was determined…
Review: The Gentleman’s Guide to Vice and Virtue by Mackenzi Lee

Review: Puddin’ by Julie Murphy – Dumplin’ #2
When I first read Dumplin’, I absolutely adored it. It was by far one of my favourite teen books and its focus on body image and body positivity was absolutely fantastic.

Review: Revolt by Tracy Lawson – The Resistance #4
Finally, we have reached the last installment in this series – and what a journey it has been! This has been one of the few YA dystopian series that I have stuck to but I’m glad I did! Here’s what I thought about this novel: My Review The Pros: What worked for me What I love about this series is…
Review: Zero Day by Ezekiel Boone – The Hatching #3
I have loved this series since I received my first ARC for it. I’ve never been scared of spiders, but The Hatching had me feeling differently. I loved both The Hatching and Skitter, the 2nd book in the series, so I was super excited to know how it would all conclude. Here is my review: My Review The Pros: What worked for me The writing…
Review: Looking Glass by Andrew Mayne – The Naturalist #2
I remember reading The Naturalist, and not enjoying it too much. However, I wanted to see where the story would continue in this second book. Let’s just say I’m glad I gave this series another shot! Here is my review: My Review To say that this book was better than its predecessor would be an understatement. Where The Naturalist was just okay for…
