Hello hello! I’m here with some book recs for our favorite spooky holiday (at least… in America?).

Here are some books that’ll … Continue reading Some Recs for Your Very Own Bookish Halloween!
So, a book slump, a.k.a. the most dreaded thing that can happen to a book lover. Y'all must be tired of me talking about it, but I'm genuinely in a huge book slump! I just cannot for the life of me pick up a book and read it. I'd much rather just waste hours on … Continue reading What Being in a Book Slump Has Done For Me – A Discussion

Marianne's Review: A Line in the Dark is not your typical f/f love story with a happy ending. In fact, itʼs not a love story, and the main character doesnʼt have a romance arc at all. A Line in the Dark is a tale of best friends, and what you find yourself doing for them … Continue reading A Line in the Dark: Blog Tour + Review!
“Every time it feels like itʼll last forever. The sorrow that rakes my skin. The guilt that grips my mind. The cold that pierces my bones and freezes my marrow.

I began to read this book at around 2AM, seeing as I had it as an eARC and didn't want to sleep. Word of advice: if you don't want to sleep, pick up this book!
