Review: Apple and Rain –..

A friend of mine read this one and gushed about it so I took a chance and picked it up. Honestly I wasn’t sure what I expected. I thought the description sounded very interesting and pretty emotionally intense. But honestly I never expected Apple & Rain to hurt my heart the way that it did. And for it to make me as angry it did at a parent. Apple & Rain is the story of 14 year old Apple, a girl that has lived with her grandmother for 11 years, since her mother took off from England to the United […]

Review: A Court of Thorns and ..

In your reading life, you will come across good books, bad books, just okay books, and amazing books. A Court of Thorns and Roses (ACOTAR) isn’t any of those. ACOTAR is in a class of its own. It is in a class that leaves you speechless and in love. It 100% took my words because really how do you describe the perfect book? You don’t. But I will try. A Court of Thorns and Roses is the story of Feyre, a normal girl living in a world that is split between human and Fae thanks to a 500-year-old war. Feyre […]

A Court of Thorns and Roses Ma..

Masquerade Balls are truly magical events. There is something truly inspiring about the ability to let your imagination run wild when it comes to fashion. There is a no-holds bard for fashion and a Masquerade and A Court of Thorns and Roses falls perfectly in line with this. Truly I had a lot of fun dressing the 5 integral characters, Feyre, Tamlin, Lucien, Rhysand and Amarantha, for the A Court of Thorns and Roses Masquerade Ball. Each character brought their own personality and vibe to the table which made picking out clothes and masks for them both easy and difficult […]

Soulprint Blog Tour – Wh..

I think about this on occasion. When there is like 4 feet of snow outside, when I don’t want to go to work, when I don’t want to pay my bills. I mean, what would I want my soul to be in another life? There are tons of possibilities. Tons of answers I could have come up with. But when it comes down to it there is only one this I could think of wanting to be. Cats seriously have the BEST life. They sleep all day. They LOVE to snuggle. They get their hair brushed for them. […]

Review: Crown of Midnight – Sarah J. Maas

Review: Crown of Midnight R..

I have reviewed this book before in the form of a discussion review. This is my own personal review written directly after reading. Do not finish this book at lunchtime and have to go back to work. That is the very first thing I can tell you, the very first thing that comes to mind when I think of Crown of Midnight because of HOLY CRAP! If I have said it once I have said it a thousand times, I’m not a fantasy reader. I’ve tried it and have been successful a handful of times but unsuccessful just as much. […]
