Happy Halloween! This week we get a freebie, so I decided to talk about my favorite books featuring witches. It’s tough narrowing them down to just ten, so I’m going to limit myself to more recent reads, or this list will go on forever. Here’s some that I’ve […]
The Hunting Moon Thank you to NetGalley and Macmillan Audio for providing me with an ALC of this audiobook in exchange for an honest review. The highly anticipated sequel to The Luminaries by New York Times bestselling author Susan Dennard. Winnie Wednesday has gotten everything she thought she […]
This week’s prompt is atmospheric books, and this is another buzzy word I see used all the time. The Novelry explains this concept as: “A novel feels atmospheric when the setting and the narrative are deeply involved with one another; when characters and plot are physically embedded in their […]

I’m currently drowning in ARCs, so the vast majority of my fall 2023 TBR is going to be ARCs. However, there are some books I got that I’m dying to start sooner rather than later. Here’s just some of the books I’m hoping to read in fall 2023: […]
