Six of Crows (Six of Crows #1) by Leigh Bardugo – Review

I was very excited to re-enter Bardugo’s Grishaverse by reading Six of Crows. As always, I was late the game but after finishing the Shadow and Bone trilogy, I was almost unable to hesitate reading the Six of Crows duology.

Siege and Storm (Shadow and Bone #2) by Leigh Bardugo – Review

While I didn’t enjoy Siege and Storm as much as I enjoyed Shadow and Bone, I loved the new characters and the exciting new information gained about the Grishaverse series’ world throughout the novel.

Shadow and Bone (Shadow and Bone #1) by Leigh Bardugo – Review

Shadow and Bone has been popular for quite some time, but it wasn’t until recently that I bought the trilogy and Six of Crows duology. Now, I am finally reading the Shadow and Bone trilogy, and next, I will read Six of Crows, hopefully. I guess you could say I am gearing up to watch the Netflix series. As always, I am late to the game. But my hesitation to read popular series had no effect on the fact that I loved this novel.

Wake the Bones by Elizabeth Kilcoyne – Review

I find it very difficult to review this novel because I am not quite sure how I feel about it. There were many intriguing aspects that I loved but there were also many things that I didn’t enjoy about Wake the Bones.

Sofi and the Bone Song by Adrienne Tooley – Review

While I had been looking forward to reading this novel, I was ultimately disappointed by the slow pace and could not get interested in the book. I didn’t finish reading Sofi and the Bone Song, but perhaps that’s because of a recent book slump.

She Gets the Girl by Rachael Lippincott and Alyson Derrick – Review

The first book I read by Rachael Lippincott was Five Feet Apart, and I loved it! So, I was very excited when I found out that Lippincott was writing a sapphic novel with their wife. I had high anticipations for She Gets the Girl but was, unfortunately, let down. Whether it’s my general dislike for rom-coms or whether the unrealistic characters threw me off, I was unable to finish reading this novel.

The Last Place On Earth (Cities in Dust #2) by Katy Nicholas – Review

4/5 Stars

// Quick Review //

While not exceeding my love of the first novel in the series, The Last Place on Earth presents a fresh and broad array of challenges that Katy Nicholas’ lovable characters must endure. Nicholas’ latest book is full of suspense, mystery, and high-stakes. After reading As the World Falls Down’s sequel, I cannot wait for the third novel in this unpredictable series.
