I realise this a bit of a change from the bi-monthly reviews I write. However, between tweaking my new website and reading new material, I realised I neglected to write a few reviews in addition to needing to write my bi-monthly update. Thus, we’re going to break from tradition a bit. The following reviews are for two series I’ve read. And as always, spoilers! Malediction Trilogy by Danielle L. Jensen I stumbled across this series thanks to Elise Kova, who was instagramming about ...

What’s on My Shelf: March-April
I’ve been home sick the past couple of days, using this cold to my advantage to just relax, and I realised I haven’t done my “monthly” book review since February. Thus, since I have such an abundance of free time, here’s what I’ve been reading as of late. (Also, before we dive in, if you want to read a more broad overview of all the books I’ve read recently, or if you’re into reading people’s soapboxes, then check out this post where I rant about the lack of romance in teen fiction. Ironic, ...
What’s on my Shelf: January-February
This is going to be brief. It’s been a pretty crazy two months, which makes me wonder what the rest of the year will be like… Thus, this unfortunately means I haven’t done nearly as much reading as I’ve wanted.

In an alternate historical fantasy world, currency is time which through alchemy has ...
What’s on My Shelf: November-December
Well, I've finally finished the last book on my list. That means it must be time for another post! The past two months I've been reading a lot more than just the ones I'll list. I've been diving back into my mythology studies, so I've been focusing on indulging in different collections instead of reading pure novels. However, one anthology I will mention later on just because I'm that excited about it. And remember, SPOILERS AHEAD! Within the Sanctuary of Wings by Marie Brennan As I ...
What’s on my Shelf: In the Labyrinth of Drakes
I have to break from my normal “routine” of things to talk about a book I just finished because it is definitely that good. The book in question is Marie Brennan’s In the Labyrinth of Drakes, book four of her Memoirs of Lady Trent series. As you know from my monthly “What’s on my Shelf” posts, I’ve been steadily trekking through this series. However, after book three, Voyage of the Basilisk, I quickly started and finished book four. Why? Well, before I can tell you the specifics of this ...
