My Reviews

 
Interesting, Dark, Slow

A tale of love and second chances.

Hurricane Girl: A novel by Marcy Dermansky
 
Dramatic, Dark, Adventurous

The main character was written as though she was living with a TBI, which (spoiler alert), it turned out that she was. It was a little hard to like her in the beginning but you came to see her perspective by the end.

 
Insightful, Adventurous, Inspiring

A really interesting take on death, dying, coping and second chances. TW - talk of suicide and death.

Wool by Hugh Howey
 
Dramatic, Adventurous, Gloomy

It was really hard to connect to the characters because they kept getting killed off. It was a little bit of a struggle for me
To get through.

 
Brilliant, Interesting, Informative

Terrible book that further exploited a family that has already had multiple lifetimes of exploitation and abuse.

 
Adventurous, Beautiful, Romantic

A great read, great romance.

 
Beautiful, Optimistic, Fun

One of my favorite books ever. The character of Marcellus was brilliant, gripping and made you fall in love. I loved having an older woman as a central character. Such an incredible read!

 
Romantic, Dark, Adventurous

A little hard to make sense of initially but the world building was good and Bryce made for an interesting main character

Gold Diggers: A Novel by Sanjena Sathian
 
Gloomy, Difficult, Dark

A bit of a depressing, woe-is-me vibe that made it hard to connect with the main character. An interesting look into American Indian culture, however.

It Ends with Us: A Novel by Colleen Hoover
 
Addictive, Dramatic, Romantic

TW- DV and SA. A gripping read that delves deep into the complexity of domestic violence.

 
Beautiful, Unconvincing, Interesting

TW- DV and SA. A great look into life after leaving your abuser and how complex and winding the road is to freedom.

 
Adventurous, Romantic, Addictive

I mean, I tore through these bad boys within a week. What’s not to love??

Crying in H Mart: A Memoir by Michelle Zauner
 
Beautiful, Gloomy, Insightful

Really difficult read. Lots of sad, dark concepts and dysfunctional family dynamics.

 
Fun, Inspiring, Interesting

Great read, the protagonist is an incredibly likable character who highlights the struggles women have faced in the scientific world.

 
Dramatic, Gloomy, Dark

Yikes, a rough, dark read. Dealing with the very real concepts of kidnapping, slavery, racism and genocide…this book is sad from beginning to end with very few happy moments to break up the darkness.

Dark Matter: A Novel by Blake Crouch
 
Interesting, Adventurous, Addictive

Sea of Tranquility: A novel by John St. Emily Mandel
 
Unconvincing, Optimistic, Interesting

An easy, likable read.

 
Adventurous, Interesting, Fun

Great sci-fi book about the power of connection.

 
Brilliant, Informative, Adventurous

Gah this one was painful. You wait for something to happen the entire book and are left disappointed by literally nothing happening

 
Insightful, Interesting, Inspiring

A little slow and boring
