I picked up an ARC of Chesire Crossing at the Penguin booth during Emerald City Comic con. They did a lot of promotion for it there, and even gave out free enamel pins so you know that caught my attention. My addiction to enamel pins is a bit distressing. In any case, I was interested … Continue reading ‘CHESHIRE CROSSING’ ARC Review

The Wicked King: ARC Review
I picked up an arc of The Wicked King at San Diego Comic-con. Let's get right into it. The romantic relationship portrayed in this series is not desirable.

Vengeful: Book Review
So I'm a bit late to the party on this, but I read Vengeful by VE Schwab right after release and I have some thoughts on what worked and what did not. I know a lot of people really loved this book and identified a lot with a new character, Marcella. Personally, I found her role … Continue reading Vengeful: Book Review
