My Heartless Hunter review: a witch and a witch-hunter, an irresistible premise, and a book that plays it safer than its own idea. Rated, spoiler-free.

My review of The Serpent and the Wings of Night: vampire death trials, a polished slow burn, and the one ingredient I wanted more of. Rated, no spoilers.

My From Blood and Ash review: the banter-forward romantasy Kyle handed me after ACOTAR. The chemistry that carries it, the exposition that slows it, and my rating.

A Court of Frost and Starlight is a cozy Christmas special wearing a novella costume. My honest, spoiler-free review — and who should actually read it.

There is no sleep for me until I finish this damn series. My spoiler-free ACOWAR review — plenty emotional, plenty surprising, and worth every chirping bird outside my window.

When the Moon Hatched has one of the best premises in romantasy and prose so pretty it glows. My honest, spoiler-free review of the BookTok favorite — and why the ending left me wanting the missing half.

I’m a huge Blake Crouch fan, and this one still missed for me. My honest, spoiler-free Upgrade review — and where to start with Crouch instead.

Blake Crouch takes a concept to 300% of its potential in Recursion. My spoiler-free review: good twists, real emotional moments, simple prose, and the one thing that knocked a star off.

I read Wayward on an eight-hour flight and it almost made the flight better. My spoiler-free review of Wayward Pines #2 — a great follow-up for anyone who loves slick action thrillers with sci-fi elements.

Blake Crouch at his best — Pines (Wayward Pines #1) is a fast, clever black box mystery with exceptional bad guys. My spoiler-free review of the book that reminds me of LOST and The Bourne Identity.

Blake Crouch nails the fast yet emotional thriller. My spoiler-free review of Dark Matter — the book for anyone who thinks about the path not taken, and a rare 5-star read for me.

For the first half of It Ends with Us, I was sure I just “didn’t get” Colleen Hoover. Then the book turned against my expectations. My honest, spoiler-free review of the phenomenon.

I hadn’t read a really good sci-fi book in a long time — Project Hail Mary broke that dry spell. My spoiler-free review: the mystery box, the ending, and the one thing that kept it from 5 stars.

Old Hollywood glamour, seven marriages, and some genuinely good twists. My spoiler-free review of The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo — including the one thing that almost lost me early.
