Image credit: http://www.gramunion.com/kuweiyulbo.tumblr.com/164283218732 I just recently finished Our Dark Duet by Victoria Schwab, and it was just as good as the first book in the duology, This Savage Song! I though the ending was quite fitting for the two books, even if it was a bit sad. Though there was never going to be a happy ending. InRead More
Review: When She Woke
“She’d crossed into a place where truth, even if it was brutal, was all she had to offer.” -Hillary Jordan, When She Woke In a not-too-distant future, people who commit crimes are coded by color.

Character Playlist: Seth Wearing
Happy music Monday! I’ve been trying to make this a thing, but haven’t been the most consistent. But I’m trying! This week, my playlist is dedicated to Seth Wearing, the main character in Patrick Ness’s More Than This. This might be one of Ness’s most haunting novels, and I will try to do it justice!Read More
A Series of Unfortunate Re-reads: Part 3
The books are starting to get longer as I get further into the series, and they’re taking me a little longer than the beginning! This week, I finished books 7 through 9 (The Vile Village, The Hostile Hospital, and The Carnivorous Carnival). I think I’ll still be able to finish all of the books byRead More
Review: Things I Should Have Known
“It’s like people have a place in their brain for normal, and they have a place in their brain for something obviously wrong, but they can’t deal with something just a little bit different. And that makes them uncomfortable. And when people are uncomfortable, they act like jerks.” -Claire LaZebnik, Things I Should Have KnownRead More
Character Playlist: Violet Baudelaire
In the midst of my re-read of The Series of Unfortunate Events, I though it was fitting to choose one of the Baudelaire orphans to make a playlist for this week. I chose the oldest Baudelaire orphan, Violet, who is actually probably my favorite! When I read the books in middle school, I always admiredRead More
A Series of Unfortunate Re-Reads: Part 2
I am absolutely flying through these books! While this isn’t particularly surprising, as I’m a fast reader and these books aren’t super long, I’ll probably slow down a bit as the books get longer towards the end (like most children’s series). My goal is to hopefully finish my complete re-read of the series by theRead More
Review: We Are Still Tornadoes
“If you can’t forgive someone you’re close to for making a mistake, then why do apologies even exist?” -Michael Kun and Susan Mullen, We Are Still Tornadoes As Cath gets ready to leave for college, she promises to stay in touch with her best friend, Scott, as she starts her new adventure. Meanwhile, Scott isRead More
A Series of Unfortunate Re-reads: Part 1
Imagine this: 9-year-old Amanda, going to the library in 4th grade and picking out books. Stumbling upon the Series of Unfortunate Events and becoming curious–what kind of book openly deters you from reading it? Tells you to avoid its unfortunate misery? Cracking open the book. Following the series until the last book is published, andRead More
Review: True Letters from a Fictional Life
“I’ve always wanted to wake up one day in a world where I liked the right people, and they liked me in return. I worry it’ll never happen.” –Kenneth Logan, True Letters from a Fictional Life James Liddell’s written and actual live are two very different things. To anyone who knows him, James is aRead More
