REVIEW: Forget Me Not by Julie Soto

Okay. I never spoil things in my reviews but I will today because there is no way I can write this without doing so, so here we go: SPOILERS AHEAD I was sooo onboard and excited for the premise. It sounded super cute. A wedding planner who didn’t want to get married with an ex in the industry… what isn’t there to love?For the pros: I related to the female mc in the beginning (forgot her name…

REVIEW: My Throat an Open Grave by Tori Bovalino!

“There’s comfort in routine, familiarity. Especially when the routine doesn’t feel like it’s actively stifling you as a person, swallowing you hole.”This book will forever be a giant broken heart in my hands. I look at it and I experience the pain I felt over the mc all over again. My heart tightens at the thought of it since her thoughts mirrored my own at various stages of my life. The way she…

REVIEW: STARLING HOUSE BY ALIX E. HARROW

*ARC provided in exchange for an honest review* RATING: 3.9/5 stars “… Starling House was no longer just a house. What had begun as stone and mortar had become something more, with ribs for rafters and stone for skin. It has no heart, but it feels; It has no brain, but it dreams.” This was my first book by Alix and it won’t be my last! I am such a SUCKER for any novel that incorporates a house…

ARC Review: The Project by Courtney Summers

“You live inside your accident… and you are so afraid of the next.”-ARC provided by Wednesday Books-If that line doesn’t sum up my own life experience these past few years, I don’t know what will.Wow, just wow. This was a story that I resonated with in so many ways. I can’t even put into words how grateful, but also, sad that statement makes me feel.This follows Lo who lost most of her family in…

BATCH RATINGS: BOOKS I READ IN 2023 THAT FELL UNDER 4 STARS

[Goodreads] 2/5 stars [Goodreads] 2/5 stars The writing in this was far too juvenile and far-fetched for my liking. The main character has to be one of my least favorite mc’s I’ve ever had the displeasure of following. The ‘tension’ in this book just felt lazy and not well thought-out. The only one I actually liked was the love interest but he was soooooo out of the mc’s league, it’s…

SEPTEMBER MEDIA WRAP-UP!

Spider-Man: Across the Universe I finally got to re-watch this with all of my siblings and I am mad all over again. I NEED THE SECOND PART NOW!!!!! Barbie Finally got around to watching this with the siblings and I really liked it. I’m a huge fan of the animated Barbie media so personally, I didn’t like how they butchered Ken’s character. But anyway, still fun to watch! I didn’t watch any :O

ARC REVIEW: The Salt Grows Heavy by Cassandra Khaw

*ARC provided in exchange for an honest review*“And you shall know her by the trail of dead.”It was honestly hard for me to get into this while reading the first 10-20 pages but I’m so glad I stuck through with it because I am now going to stalk Cassandra’s entire collection as it comes out.I will definitely miss the Plague Doctor and The Mermaid. Oh my goodness, this was one of the most unique…
