Ninth House by Leigh Bardugo: a review

Ninth House by Leigh Bardugo: a review

I’ve been battling with myself whether I felt like writing a review for Ninth House or not. Normally I only write reviews for new books, or ARCs, but I really want to write more about what I actually read. Reviews are fun to do after all! So let’s dive into what I thought of Ninth House. I think Ninth House was one of the most anticipated novels of the year for a lot of us. It is Leigh’s first adult novel, but a lot of us know her best for her Grishaverse books. As a side note, I loved Wonder…

Throwback Thursday: Road trip USA 2002

Throwback Thursday: Road trip USA 2002

For this blog post, we’re going back in time a little far… 17 years to be exact. That’s when my family and I went on a road trip in the South Western USA to conclude our time living in Arizona! We saw a lot of cool things, so I decided to make a post about it! Arizona Obviously since I was seven years old at the time, I don’t remember this road trip as if it was yesterday. I will also 100% recount things in the wrong order, but the most important part is that y’all know where we went,…

Bandit is the gray one in the middle and Bogey is the one being held in a chokehold by mom I believe.…

My Bookish Birthday Wishlists

My Bookish Birthday Wishlists

So…. my birthday is coming up soon! You may already know it’s on Halloween and I’m super stoked. I have decided to put a little wishlist out there, not so that people can buy me stuff, but more so I have a place I can direct people to. But if you do end up buying me stuff, you get to own part of my life. It’s the law. Okay, so it turns out I’m super predictable because all my friends are getting me Barnes & Noble gift cards. I do have some specific books that I want to get, mostly…

Authors I Want To Meet

Authors I Want To Meet

My last blog post was all about the beautiful worlds that authors create, so this one is about the minds behind them! There are a few authors I would love to meet one day… Here’s to hoping they’ll one day visit my area! For some reason authors I love skip over D.C. in favor of other towns, and I never understand because so many people live in this area; the turn out would be amazing! Alas, I know that authors don’t have much say about where they’re going, but here’s to holding out hope anyway! V.E. Schwab – one of…
