The last travel narrative. We did it, kids. At least we’re going out with a good narrative, but it’s also a sad one, considering it’s a brutal reminder that slavery and colonialism are the roots of all evil, everywhere.

Book Review: Travels through France and Italy by Tobias Smollett
Read moreAnother travel narrative! After this one I have one left, and I plan to literally never read one for the next five years. Mainly because unless the writer has something interesting to say, I lose interest pretty fast. Here we go! ♡

Book Review: IT by Stephen King
Read moreI started reading IT back in October, when I saw all cinematic versions (1990, 2017, 2019). Then I decided to tackle the book, and oh boy, was it a book. There’s so much I want to cover but I’m going to condense it as much as possible, into what I loved and what I didn’t…

Book Review: Sinful Like Us by Krista & Becca Ritchie
Read moreSorry I fell off the face of the earth, but after I finished reading this book, I fell into a reading slump, knowing I’d have to review it. This book really was that disappointing. Three months later, and I’ve finally decided to kick myself into just doing this review, so it shouldn’t be that long.…

Book Review: Blood Echo by L.E. Royal
Read moreI started this book at the beginning of the year, and I literally finished it just last week. Not because it was bad, but because my life is a chaotic mess. Anyway, I’m glad I finally finished and reviewed this book. Note: I received an advanced copy of this novel in exchange for an honest…

Book Review: Dear Martin by Nic Stone
Read moreI read this book the week before BookCon a few months, so I’m excited to finally review it because I loved it so much. After this review I have another YA review that was actually a NetGalley ARC, then I have two more travel narratives from the 18th century (both non-fiction), and then I’m finally…

Book Review: Defy Me by Tahereh Mafi
Read moreFinally a YA review. As usual, I actually finished this book literally a couple of days after it came out back in April—but I was so behind on my reviews, and as I’ve said like three hundred times, I like to review books in the order that I read them (okay I’m pretty sure I’ve…

Book Review: Letters Written During a Short Residence in Sweden, Norway, and Denmark by Mary Wollstonecraft
Read moreWhew, what a title! I cannot wait to review this book, and it’s the last non-YA/NA/adult for a while, so get excited (I’m excited – I personally love classics, but I like to change genres every couple of books or so). As usual, rating is out of five stars. My next review will be of…

Book Review: The Winter’s Tale by William Shakespeare
Read moreYet another Shakespeare play! As I said yesterday , there are two reviews one after the other because I’ve had them ready for a while, but I like to publish reviews in order of when I finish the book. But after this one it’ll be a while before my next review, hopefully not too long.…

Book Review: The Turkish Embassy Letters by Lady Mary Wortley Montagu
Read moreAnd here’s another review! There should be one more today after this one, and then probably a few days (hopefully no more than that) break. This review was actually ready before King Lear, but I like to publish reviews in the order that I finish books, so that’s why I held off. As usual, the…
