Good morning! Let’s talk books! More importantly LGBTQ+ books. So apparently Simon VS the Homosapiens Agenda fans were bombarding the author with information on HER characters and one of them was that Leah is bisexual. Sure she had a thing for Simon, but she was also interested in girls. Which is why she was alwaysContinue reading “Leah on the Offbeat–Becky Albertalli”

The Sandcastle Empire–Kayla Olsen
I needed some young adult in my life after reading Lolita. WHOOOOOAAAA what a horrible way to phrase that. And yet I left it so you could read it and be mortified with me and for me. You’re welcome. Anyway: I love YA novels that have heart. And murder. Lots and lots of murder. AndContinue reading “The Sandcastle Empire–Kayla Olsen”
Worlds of Ink and Shadow–Lena Coakley
I was having a really hard time reading anything for a very long time. (And if you noticed, also writing anything beyond “Good book. Must read. Gronk loves rock.”.) But this book was so fucking fantastic. It’s based off of the Bronte family and intersperses their real life history with an interesting notion of jumpingContinue reading “Worlds of Ink and Shadow–Lena Coakley”
This Savage Song–Victoria Schwab
Uuuuuuurgh. With joy. This book was soooooo fucking good. This was one of my OwlCrate books, and honestly, I’m so glad I got that box every month for awhile because it’s given me some of my favourite books. And this time it gave me a book series. Which was accidental. I didn’t realize (classic) thatContinue reading “This Savage Song–Victoria Schwab”
The ‘Sweep’ Series–Cate Tiernan
I’m going to review these all together because there were so many books in this teen series and if I tried to review all 15 of them individually I might explode. Especially since they were grouped together in compendiums of three, so I think I’ll do the same and review them like that. (Spoilers ahead.)Continue reading “The ‘Sweep’ Series–Cate Tiernan”
Ballroom Blitz
I’ve been pretty busy these last few mon–years. Things have gotten out of control and I’m only JUST starting to patch things together to make them workable. One of those things being writing “reviews”, which at this point they are more or less just blurbs on like “Read it if you feel like it” andContinue reading “Ballroom Blitz”
Miles to Go–Miley Cyrus
This needs some explanation as to why on Earth I would read something like this. For the past two years I’ve been participating in a book challenge called ’26 Books With Bringing Up Burns’. It’s helping me get through my shelves, read books I wouldn’t think to read, and overall expanding my genre selection. Now.Continue reading “Miles to Go–Miley Cyrus”
The House of Hades–Rick Riordan
Wwwweeell, Annabeth and Percy kind of sort of fell into Tartarus. Whoops. This is their battle to get out and close the Doors of Death while the team up top tries to find them and close it from the other side. As naturally, it has to be a team effort. Now, this book was brilliantContinue reading “The House of Hades–Rick Riordan”
The Mark of Athena–Rick Riordan
With Annabeth and Percy reunited, the gang on the Argo II is set to go back to the Roman camp and bring together the Greek and the Romans in peace after millennia’s of rivalry. Unfortunately chaos ensues and they are forced to run. They set out on a quest to follow the Mark of AthenaContinue reading “The Mark of Athena–Rick Riordan”
The Son of Neptune
Heyo, I forgot to post yesterday! Here we are! Percy is back! I love myself some sarcastic and heroic Percy Jackson sass. Percy, like Jason in the first book, wakes up in the wrong place and doesn’t remember who he is. The only thing he remembers is Annabeth. He loves her and has to getContinue reading “The Son of Neptune”
