Book Review – A Contract of Love by Akaku Red – 5 stars
Warning: May contain minor spoilers, but opening comments are spoiler-free. Check out my Reading Ranting page for more. OMG I loved it. Fake dating, corporate shenanigans, murderers and secrets and “get your hands off her” vibes. Think Dynasty in book form. What I liked… Evangeline is a little on the innocent side but not naive […]

Book Review – The Ballad of Never After by Stephanie Garber – 5 stars
Warning: May contain minor spoilers, but opening comments are spoiler-free. Check out my Reading Ranting page for more. No spoilers, but as usual with Jacks, I’m so confused and conflicted in the best ways and every time I think it’s going to be okay… This is a wild ride of emotions that make me fall […]

Book Review – Once Upon a Broken Heart by Stephanie Garber – 5 Stars
Warning: May contain minor spoilers, but opening comments are spoiler-free. Check out my Reading Ranting page for more. Wow. Just… Wow. I couldn’t put it down, and when I finished, I jumped straight to the audiobook of book 2 because I couldn’t wait. If you haven’t read Caraval, I strongly recommend you do because this […]

Warning: May contain minor spoilers, but opening comments are spoiler-free. Check out my Reading Ranting page for more. I’ll preface this review by saying that everything happens for a reason in this book. I’m emphasising this because there were some things early on that felt totally random. No spoilers, but trust the process. It was […]

Writing Ranting – I’m a Real Author Now
I was so nervous sending out my ARCs of Out of Ashes because that’s the final version of the book. That’s what I’m releasing to the public. That’s what people are going to pay for. I wrote about my fears in another post, but since then, I had an ARC reader reach out to me. […]

Things That Terrify Me as a Writer.
It’s not sales or low ratings, that I’m scare of, it’s the personal effect on readers. I’m genuinely scared of something coming across the wrong way, especially something within my own experience. I have a diverse cast (BIPOC and LGBTQ+) in most of my stories right now and will make sure I have them in […]

Fur Babies – Christmas Kitten
Little Miel and Loki (Officially Wanda and Pietro because I started calling them Miel and Loki on social media but had to change the names because those were already in the system) are now both adopted and happy in their new homes. I picked them up around the 2nd week in November as two very […]

Warning: May contain minor spoilers, but opening comments are spoiler-free. Check out my Reading Ranting page for more. OMG what a way to end the story. I was not prepared for any of it. This is book 3 and the final part of this storyline, but not the end of the series. There’s another book […]
