Book Review: Moon Called

For my 4th or 5th Audiobook, I picked Mooncalled by Patricia Briggs to listen to and oh boy, I am glad I did because first and foremost, the narrator was wonderful. As someone who just started her Audiobook journey, I have a hard time listening to Audiobooks since English is not my native language, thus, accents can be confusing and my understanding through hearing is simply programmed to understand TV shows, English-dubbed animes, movies, and songs.

Book Review: Sparktopia

Where should I begin with this review because I honestly have a lot of confused feelings for this book? Like, as I’m sitting and typing this review, I still couldn’t make up my mind about the dominant feeling I had after reading the book. Should I grade this according to my standards for erotica books? Should I grade it according to my standards for sci-fi stories? Or maybe I’ll just use my criteria for grading fantasy books? So okay, let’s put the confusion aside and familiarize ourselves first with how the story of Sparktopia went. In the fictional world of…
