Happy (almost) New Year! The publishing world feels like they’re kicking off 2022 with a bang, which makes me super hopeful and anxious to see what our Book of the Month picks will be for January! I’ve been lucky enough to read a bunch of my Most Anticipated January releases so far, be sure to…
A Flicker in the Dark
Chloe Davis has spent her whole life trying to fix herself, and now as a 32 year old psychologist she helps others to fix themselves.

December 2021 Book of the Month
The final month of 2021 has started. I’ve said this before, but this year has flown by, especially the second half of the year. December is always such a toss up when it comes to BOTM picks. December is a fairly light publishing month due to the holidays and so we tend to see some…

The Keeper of Night
I’m a huge fan of YA fantasy, but I think I’ve decided I’m not a huge fan of fantasy duologies. I have started to notice, at least in the duologies I have read recently, is a big issue with pacing. Most fantasy stories need time to develop and establish world-building. I find that the first…
The Ex Hex
Do you love a good witchy read with all the Hallmark vibes? If you answered yes than you need to pick up The Ex Hex before Halloween this Sunday! If you follow me than you’ll know I’m not a huge romance reader. I like the occasional romance but I’m more of a Mystery/Detective/Fantasy reader. Life…
