Descendant of the Crane by Joan He [review] the hype did NOT lie to me, friends. this was amazing

I think I've found my first favorite read of 2019. Well, that's kind of debatable because I'm unsure of whether I would classify The Gilded Wolves as one of my favorites? (It was really good, but I don't know whether or not it was amazing-amazing-aMazInG). This kind of reminded me of Beneath the Citadel x The Girl King, but …

Things I Noticed in My Reread of Nemesis by Brendan Reichs [blog tour]

I’m lowkey terrible and don’t pay enough attention while reading. Like, there are so many things in books that I don’t realize and I just have to like,, reread the entire page??? Or sometimes I have to go back like, three pages because I’ve been aimlessly moving my eyes and not interpreting ANYTHING AT ALL. …

Beneath the Citadel by Destiny Soria [review] I’m Disappointed But This Was Still Good?? Mixed Feelings?

It's safe to say that I have very mixed feelings about this book. I mean, I'm still not sure of whether I should be rating this three or four stars. Because three stars isn't necessarily a bad rating!! I used to think of it as one, but really... I've decided that three stars are actually …

The Girl King by Mimi Yu [review] ft. HEAVY COLONIALISM (!!) IN EAST-ASIAN INSPIRED FANTASY (!!!)

*stares at the low ratings* *stares at my five-star rating* Well. This was one of my most anticipated reads of the year, and was included in my list of asian-inspired fantasy books. It's about sisters betraying sisters and magic and shapeshifting is involved. Sounds amazing and cool, right? Yeah, except a lot of trusted reviewers …

I'm not sure how I'm going to encapsulate all of my love for Maura Milan into a review, but... I'm going to attempt it?? Everything about this book was amazing, and I'm unbelievably excited for the sequel (which is called Eclipse the Skies doesn't that literally sound epic) Also, this review is coming at you around three/four …

Ace of Shades by Amanda Foody [review] (This was amazing?? One of my favs??)

I think I've said this 500 times on the internet already but: the only bad part of my experience was seeing the left side get smaller and realizing this book would end. This is the same exact reaction I had with The Forbidden Wish, where I realized... wow i'm in love with this book and i …

Girls of Paper and Fire by Natasha Ngan // brilliant, Asian-infused fantasy that literally everyone should read

I actually have so much freaking love for this book that I just can't explain in words??? I just,, love it so much????? If I could somehow turn back time to a time where I was reading this book and retrieve the happiness that this book gave to me, I would. Also back to a …

My So-Called Bollywood Life by Nisha Sharma // GUESS WHO WANTS TO WATCH BOLLYWOOD MOVIES NOW?? (me) [blog tour]

Bollywood movies have officially been added to my to-watch list. THIS BOOK JUST MADE THEM SOUND SO, SO GOOD? And from what I've heard about them being realistically emotional (or something around that wording) I'm really, really excited because I've heard that the way they're presented is completely different from American films. ALSO I JUST …
