Orange is the New Black Review

With the release of the show's season five, I felt the urge to read the true tale of Piper.

Everything, Everything Review

If you don't know, this book was recently made into a movie. I usually try to read the book before I watch the movie or tv show, so Everything, Everything was on my list.

The Crown's Game Review

Evelyn Skye visited a bookstore semi-near me (it's still an hour+ drive) a while back and in preparation I had read The Crown's Game.

Windfall Review

Jennifer E. Smith has always been a fun and easy summer read. When I was browsing Barnes & Noble and saw she'd come out with a new book, I just had to buy it.

Fun fact: she actually used to live like two blocks away from me in small-town Illinois.

This Adventure Ends Review

I'd seen This Adventure Ends on netgalley before it came out and it looked so good to me! Except when I requested it, I was declined. Thus, I had to wait for its release and boy was it worth it.

As You Wish Review

I was super intrigued by this book by Chelsea Sedoti when I read the summary and would like to thank netgalley for giving me the opportunity to read and review this book.

As You Wish is set to be released January 2, 2018.

Genuine Fraud Review

One of the best books I've ever read was E. Lockhart's We Were Liars. I managed to get a hold of the ARC for her next book, Genuine Fraud which is supposed to be released September 5, 2017. Now I had high expectations for this next book, which is also a stand-alone.

Annihilation Review

I bought Annihilation by Jeff VanderMeer at a bookstore in Santorini. Read about that amazing store here.

This was one suggested by the staff on one of their little notecards. I'm always up to try what other people enjoyed so I decided to take a chance on it.

This is the UK cover, I think, and the one I have.

Ramona Blue Review

Leading up to the Anderson's Bookshop signing for Julie Murphy, Evelyn Skye, Joelle Charbonneau, and Kimberly McCreight, I had to prepare by reading at least some of these authors' books. My first pick was Julie Murphy's Ramona Blue and here's my spoiler-free review for it!!! Enjoy!

Study Abroad Bookhaul

I left the US with zero books and managed to come back with twenty-two, not including any kindle books purchased. Considering this was over six months, I'd say I really restrained myself.

Bentwhistle the Dragon in a Threat From the Past Review

Full disclaimer: I was reached out to by the author to read and review this series. This is my HONEST review. I've previously said how it annoys me when youtubers, instagrammers, bloggers, etc talk up products that they don't truly care about and I refuse to fall into that. However, I will always go into parts that I did like as I understand every author works incredibly hard in their writing.

FYI there will be a lot of spoilers in this review as everything I have to say about it requires me to reveal certain things.

Zorba the Greek Book and Movie Review

I was recently in Greece for two weeks and was able to visit the islands of Crete, Santorini, and Mykonos. I also went to the mainland for two days and I spent that whole time in Athens. On Santorini, my mom and I visited this great bookstore called Atlantis Books. Click here for my post about that store. Nikos Kazantzakis's Zorba The Greek was one of two books I bought here.
