I'm Leah! The woman behind Leah's Books, a blog where I write book reviews and post other bookish content.
This week’s prompt is books I hope to find under my tree. However, this topic is problematic for me for a couple of reasons. First off, I don’t have a Christmas tree since I’m Jewish. Secondly, and the biggest issue is that there isn’t a single person in […]
Siege and Storm by Leigh Bardugo is book #2 in the Shadow and Bone series. It picks up where Shadow and Bone left off, and I was really excited to read it. Leigh Bardugo has quickly become one of my favorite writers, and I could not wait to […]
Since I loved the A Court of Thorns and Roses series so much, and I flew through all the available books in that series, I’ve been going through some severe Sarah J. Maas withdrawal. During a recent trip to my library, I came across Throne of Glass, and […]

Top Ten Tuesday used to be a weekly post hosted by The Broke and the Bookish, but was moved to That Artsy Reader Girl. “It was born of a love of lists, a love of books, and a desire to bring bookish friends together.” This is definitely something […]
On my last trip to the library, I picked up not one, but two books by Leigh Bardugo. I’ve heard so many people raving about how great Six of Crows is, that I figured I had nothing to lose by picking it up. If I had a dollar […]
