Ninth House by Leigh Bardugo
I re-read this one so that I could read the 2nd book and I remembered why I like Leigh Bardugo so much! This is an academic fantasy you could get lost in. Alex (Galaxy) Stern gets an offer to go to Yale after being the sole survivor of a multiple homicide. Once at Yale, Alex… Continue reading Ninth House by Leigh Bardugo

The Rule Book by Sarah Adams
I'm fairly new to Sarah Adams but I loved this cute (smutty) romance. This is the enemies to lovers trope and I really get into that one. The plot of this one is right up my alley and it is a sports romance as well. The plot: Nora Mackenzie’s entire career lies in the hands… Continue reading The Rule Book by Sarah Adams

Gallant by V.E. Schwab
This was a very ghoulish atmospheric, gothic type book. If your looking for that vibe, this book will have you covered. I think this is a bit on the YA side as I feel like the plot and character development aren't as mature as her other books. But I still enjoyed this one for the… Continue reading Gallant by V.E. Schwab

The Lost Bookshop by Evie Woods, Evie Gaughan
This nod to bookshops by Woods and Gaughan was whimsical and charming. I'm always a fan of a book with magical realism, especially one with a bookstore! ‘The thing about books,’ she said ‘is that they help you to imagine a life bigger and better than you could ever dream of.’ On a quiet street… Continue reading The Lost Bookshop by Evie Woods, Evie Gaughan
