I first learned of the book In Five Years when it started popping up everywhere in my social feed, both in Bookstagram and my personal Instagram account! So I knew I had to check it out. This is the first book that I read of Rebecca Serle and first in the magical realism genre. I […]
Short stories are usually harder to execute since there’s not a ton of space to build up a character or an enthralling plot. Short stories always feel like they lack enough depth to leave a mark. But once again, Taylor Jenkins Reid took this as a challenge and wrote what is probably one of the […]
The Seven Husbands Of Evelyn Hugo was released several years ago before it became viral in the Bookstagram and BookTok community. The book has a glowing 4.48 star review on Goodreads (at the time of writing this) and everyone on social media has raved about this book a lot. Of course I had to check […]

That book is a masterpiece in my opinion, and I immediately just wanted to read all his other novels after. I read A Man Called Ove next which is probably his most popular work. It has already […]
It’s official, The Midnight Library is my new favourite book! This was an amazing start to my April reading, and quite the redemption from a poor reading month in February and March. I’ve seen this book everywhere since it was released in 2020 and honestly I wish I had read it sooner. This is the […]
I’ll admit that I was one of the thousands of people who binge-watched Bridgerton on Netflix. I heard so much buzz around it in 2020 and knowing that this was a creation of the great Shondaland, I knew that I needed to watch it. There is something addicting about this royal family that just reeled […]
