 Wow, I am actually posting regularly. This is my sixth book review in a row (wow) and I'm actually keeping track of all my homework (wow) and I manage to live a little at the same time (wow). I have also used the word wow  four times in the past two sentences. I think my mom gave me Serafina and the Black Cloak because the synopsis was so interesting, and I thought it was too. Unfortunately, the synopsis is rather different to the book's actual plot. Okay, so I was super thrilled to read this at first. It sounded like historical fiction mixed with urban fantasy and a touch of horror, so naturally, going in, I was pretty excited. But midway through the book, my expectations started to decrease. This book tries to be horror. It tries to give me nightmares and have me looking around in the shadows for someone there. But it doesn't succeed. I doubt that I would have been scared of this even when I was seven. I can't understand the idea that this is a bestseller.  I think m...

 Aaaaaand, surprise surprise, here's another book review! I have, as previously informed you, a lot of new books and I need to review them all. This one took a little searching in the bookstore, but I immediately fell in love with the cover. As I explained to my mother on the car ride home, usually the best books make more money, and with that money the author can make stellar covers, and that's how you know a book is good. A Wolf Called Wander delivers on all those things. (It also took me a while to find an image of my edition).                                                                                                                   ...

 I literally have nothing else to do other than write book reviews. Honestly, I should have written this a long time ago, but...you know...procrastination... I read this book after watching the movie, but I was actually pretty little then (can't remember, but I was probably seven or eight) so it didn't resonate with me as much. After a friend told me how great it was, I decided to just go ahead and read it because there was nothing else at the bookstore worth my attention, lol.                                                                         Wonder is a book with a simple message; be kind. We probably hear these two words pretty much all the time, but when something is repeated over and over, it loses its meaning. The story is simple at first glance, but when you begin to become more deeply immerse...

 I figured I might as well get this over with, which is why I'm posting this review the same day as Ember Rising's. The best books are sometimes the hardest to review, especially the ones with heart-stopping twists. It has been a perfectly wonderful ride from the very beginning of The Green Ember, all the way to here. The final book. The fourth, and the last, time I will ever see The End in my mind this way.                                                                                                                     "Now, my dear," Father said. "Tell us a story."                          ...

 Hey, sorry for the inactivity! I might be even less active during the school year, but honestly, who knows. I'll try to post at least once or twice a month, and I have tons of book reviews to write, because I have nothing else notable to post right now. *makes snoring sounds* Here's my review of Ember Rising. I hope it's worth the wait!                                                                       Who knew a bunch of bunnies could make such an impression? I didn't, until I found The Green Ember. This is the third installment in this not-able-to-explain-with-adjectives series.  Of course, following the cliffhanger of the next book (I guessed who was doing that , did you?) the story begins with Heather's POV. Now this is getting a bit repetitive. The past two books have also started with her point ...

As I promised, here is a review of Ember Falls, the second book in the Green Ember series! I do  have more important things to do than write book reviews (such as worry about the characters in Ember's End, which are currently in mortal peril - I'm halfway through the book), but who's judging? No one is!                                            Okay, so where do I begin? This book is a great follow-up to The Green Ember, and I loved it. I don't knooooow how to review it, because it seems very hard to review without spoiling.  Well. I'll have to try. Ember Falls was exhilarating. It was intense. It was thrilling. Okay, maybe not thrilling. That belongs to the third book. But yeah.  Many of the plot twists were unexpected. There was one I saw coming a little early on, maybe because it had been hinted in the first book (a certain betrayal) but it doesn't matter. It ...

Hi! Today I'm reviewing one of my favorite books (and will review the rest in the series)! I actually kind of thank Covid-19 for happening, because if it hadn't then Audible would have never put out a free collection of books for kids, and I never would have seen the cover and go, "I'm listening to this." So, um, thank you, Covid-19. Anyway...                                                                 *royal trumpet screeches* The Green Ember is probably one of my favorite books to date. It has awesome epic fights, awesome epic plot twists, and awesome epic sibling relationships. (Sorry, Frozen.) Heather and Picket are two ordinary rabbits living an ordinary life with their parents, and baby brother Jacks in a place called Nick Hollow which looks straight out of a Tinker Bell movie. But the sweet little plot goes epic and aw...
