Wow, has it really been two months since I last posted? Time is flying way faster than it should. Anyway, I’m sorry it has been that long, but I promise that is going to change. Quarantine’s getting to me and I’m always restless now. I want to talk about something a little different today, something […]

On Reading “Jane Eyre”
Wow, it’s been way too long since I last posted. I’m sorry for the wait – now that I’m back in school I’m much busier, but I also have a lot more to talk about. So I want to try to talk a bit about a book I just finished for school that’s left me […]

Why are Negative Reviews Fun?
Sorry I haven’t posted in a month. This semester is easily the hardest and most chaotic yet, giving me very little time to myself. I finally have a minute to sit down and breathe, so I thought I’d discuss something I’ve been mulling over a bit lately. I’ve been thinking a lot about the appeal […]

The Omega’s Rebellion by Sierra Christenson. My rating: 4 of 5 stars. “Vanessa may be weak, but her purity gives me an opportunity to corrupt her. She may be on the Alphas’ side, but that will not last for very long. I will give her a taste of true power and watch it destroy her. […]

Review: Unparalleled by D.S. Smith
Unparalleled by D.S. Smith. My rating: 4 of 5 stars. “He remembered falling. Falling forward into darkness, spinning and tumbling as he fell. No sound, no light, just falling. And the sickness, he remembered the sickness in his stomach. He felt it now. He leaned over and retched but nothing came out. With some effort […]
