Pagan Magic and Religion Collide in The Wolf and the Woodsman by Ava Reid

In her forest-veiled pagan village, Évike is the only woman without power, making her an outcast clearly abandoned by the gods. The villagers blame her corrupted bloodline—her father was a Yehuli man, one of the much-loathed servants of the fanatical king. When soldiers arrive from the Holy Order of Woodsmen to claim a pagan girl…

Mystery and Thriller Mini Reviews

Hello friends! I'm here with three mini reviews today, two of them are for thriller novels and one of them is for a mystery. I had a really great time reading two of these three books, while one of them was an utter disappointment and will certainly end up on my worst books of the…

Four Books, Four Conflicts: Mini Reviews and Musings

Hi all, it’s Sabrina!  I was in a massive reading slump at the beginning of April, but I’m happy to say I’ve since overcome it and finished reading four books.  This post is me chatting a bit about those four books and the conflicts they caused in me - though I suppose “musings” or “contemplations”…

Five Star Predictions: The Results Pt. 2

Hello friends! I'm finally here with the last three two books I read for my five star predictions post, sharing if they've lived up to my expectations, or not. As you can see, I crossed out the number three there, and that is because I'm unsure when I'll get to the final book - The…

Book Recommendations Based on Taylor Swift’s Evermore

While the release of folklore was shocking - after all, Taylor Swift tends to meticulously plan her releases, sharing all kinds of easter eggs with her fans in the process - I think I can speak for the both of us when I say that evermore came as even more of a surprise. I don't…

A Thrilling Haunted House Horror – The Carrow Haunt by Darcy Coates

Hey, it’s Sabrina and today I am here with a book review!  I don’t write reviews very often because I find them difficult but every now and then I read a book and I realise I know exactly what to say.  The Carrow Haunt by Darcy Coates is one such book, and I’m going to…
