Book Review: Badass Affirmations: Wit and Wisdom
Read this as a COYER effort, got it in a Humble Bundle in 2020. Could not say I enjoyed this or that it had good affirmations. One star.
Book Review: The Secret of Chestnut Hall
This was unfortunately my Falling Asleep Read so I have no recollection of its contents whatsoever, as I tended to read a lot of it while asleep. Two stars?
Book Review: High Steaks Murder
This was cute and cozy! I liked that her uncle was named Toad. It unfortunately wasn’t long enough for the mystery to be satisfying, but it was nice to finish such a short book. I’d continue reading the series. Three stars. No recipes.
Book Review: Other Names for Love
This was heartbreaking and wild and intense and really slow at times and taking place in two different places and times and honestly, a lot going on. Great narration; I read this on audiobook. A lot of the writing feels very surreal or dreamlike, especially in the first half, but the second half feels more […]
Book Review: A Dark and Stormy Tea

Book Review: Sirens & Muses
This book has FANTASTIC vibes. It’s queer, it’s here, it’s set in 2011, it’s about artists at an elite college and it’s mostly about the inner thoughts and lives of those artists. Very light on plot and I wouldn’t necessarily call what any of the characters go through “development”, but I LOVED the vibes. I […]

Book Review: Just Like Home
claustrophobic, atmospheric, fundamentally about the horrors of coming back home after you are an adult. repetition used to absolute maximum effect. some parts of this book made me feel physically sick, but it’s not necessarily gory, just kind of, nausea-inducing. in a positive way? I was very lucky to get this eARC as both an […]
