Book Review: Bittersweet In The Hollow

Can someone please remind me why it’s always the young adult girls have the sole wisdom, experience, and intuition to solve a long forgotten murder that led to a series of murders in the present? Why is it that a bunch of experienced and highly competent officials of the Sherriff Department are at a loss and grasping at straws at something that they are supposed to be good at?

Book Review: A Harvest of Hearts

Unlike the other reviewers who picked this book due to it being inspired by Howl’s Moving Castle, I requested Harvest of Hearts from Netgalley because I fell in love with the cover and the premise was interesting.

At some point, I did ask myself whether I downloaded the correct file because I expected something typical only to be handed with a story centering…

Book Review: My Fair Brady

I did not expect that I would enjoy a book that involves theatre and all its nitty-gritty details but after finishing My Fair Brady, I just had to declare to myself that there is always a first time. To say that I enjoyed this book would be an understatement because I love it; its characters, the story, the dynamics, and the way that the author made the theatre concept (I really thought it’s gonna be a boring subject you know). And to think that this was just a random pick from My Public Library made the book even more precious…
