Welcome to Over-Booked, where I share my latest and greatest book acquisitions! There is a new blog hosting Stacking the Shelves, so do check out Reading Reality for more information! I have a rather big book haul for September, and most of these books are being released by the end of the year, which means […]
The nitty-gritty: Despite a strong dark academia vibe and some interesting world building elements, An Academy For Liars lacked a cohesive plot and likeable characters. “Lennon was no hero. And she wasn’t even sure she had the spine to call herself a villain.” I had high hopes for An Academy of Liars, but unfortunately it […]
Welcome to Future Fiction, my reimagining of the Waiting on Wednesday meme! There are so many amazing new books coming out, that I can no longer pick just one. My goal with Future Fiction is to share at least three new books each week, a combination of recent cover reveals and books that I’ve recently […]
I did a slightly different version of this tag two years ago, and since this particular version has been floating around social media, I thought I’d jump in! My reviews are linked for the books I’ve read: 5 Books I Love: These are five of my favorite reads from earlier in the year: Diavola by […]
The nitty-gritty: A highly entertaining debut, American Ghoul excels with standout characters and unexpected humor.

The nitty-gritty: Libby Cudmore’s carefully plotted PI story mixes interpersonal drama, music and the emotional pitfalls of addiction. “Junkies will always break your heart.” I have to admit it was the cover of Negative Girl that first caught my attention, and after reading it, I think it perfectly fits this murder mystery that centers around […]
Welcome to Buffy’s Corner, where I take a look at what’s coming up this week on the blog! I’m linking up with The Sunday Post over at Kimberly’s blog, The Caffeinated Reviewer:-D A lot has happened since last Sunday. On Tuesday, we received an order to evacuate, due to a nearby fire (called the Bridge […]
The nitty-gritty: A perfectly paced page-turner that will keep you guessing, The Night Guest is a small gem of a terrifying story. The Night Guest is written by Icelandic author Hildur Knútsdóttir and translated by Mary Robinette Kowal, and even though I don’t read a lot of translated fiction, it’s one of the best I’ve […]
