THISTLEFOOT BY GENNAROSE NETHERCOTT
This is one of those books that I really wanted to like. I purchased it knowing that this book would be exciting, I was almost cocky about it. I loved the cover, I loved the premise of the book, and I love Baba Yaga. So, of course I went into this book with high hopes. …

THE GIRLS IN THE STILT HOUSE BY KELLY MUSTIAN
This fell into my ‘must read’ books and so I scooped it up without really thinking. I’ve noticed it compared to Where the Crawdads Sing quite often and the only thing this has in common is it’s in the southern swamps. Otherwise, I’d say I’m quite offended others are comparing the two. I would place this in the ‘don’t…

GOLDEN GIRL BY ELIN HILDERBRAND

A GOOD IDEA BY CRISTINA MORACHO
There are moments when you should know what you were getting yourself into and this was one of them. I should have known this was going to be an overdone 90s teen angst novel.. but I wasn’t ready for how over the top it would be. If that wasn’t enough.. The title, the cover don’t match…

THE CARTOGRAPHERS BY PENG SHEPHERD
I just finished The Cartographers this morning and I feel I should chill out before writing this review, but here I am writing a review with all the fresh, raw emotions spread all over me. To start off, this was a good idea. I adore that it was about a real situation, I love that the author used the real…

INSOMNIA BY SARAH PINBOROUGH
I agree with other reviewers that this book starts out SLOW. You really have to push through the mud to get to the stream (is that a fun saying? Did I just make that up?). I already am not a big fan of books based on sleep, lack of sleep or dreams. I find you instantly get…
