my most anticipated book releases for the last half of 2020!!

I don't actually keep up with new releases most of the time just because I feel overwhelmed by all the new books being released...and my TBR is already suffering and I don't want it to go over 200 books. However, there a few books that I am REALLY excited to release. Most of these are…

The Mid-Year Book Freak Out Tag (2019 edition)

Normally, this tag, at this time of year, is circulating like wildfire. (I don't think that simile worked). I actually haven’t seen anyone do it this year which is like...wow.

4 Reasons The Devouring Gray became one of my most disappointing reads of 2019! (ft. boring characters and my salty rants)

One of the saddest feelings a bookworm can experience is when a very anticipated release becomes on of your least favourite books. And that's precisely what happened with The Devouring Gray by Christine Lynn Herman. This was pitched as perfect for fans of Stranger Things & The Raven Boys. I LOVE BOTH OF THOSE THINGS…

REVIEW: The Boy Who Steals Houses by CG Drews // aka the book that stole my heart!!

So look. Contemporaries and me? We're not exactly best friends. I like contemporaries! I normally give them 3 or 4 stars but they rarely BLOW me away. It takes SO much for me to give contemporaries 5 stars because I'm hardly ever completely impressed with them (which is why i've read like 2 contemporaries this…

Are The Cruel Prince & The Wicked King Worth The Hype?? (collab with Kerys!)

As you MIGHT know, I am obsessed with The Folk Of The Air series by Holly Black. Jude and Cardan fill me with so much love I cannot even begin to explain how much they entirely own my heart!!! So in celebration of how much I LOVE these characters (as well as the world, the…

Year Of The Asian Reading Challenge // my heart = Asian books, my TBR & signup/update post

Yes, I'm Asian and yes, I love Asian books with my whole heart. When this reading challenge was announced, I knew that I wanted to do it but I was hesitant, because if you've been following me for some time, you'll know that I want 2019 to be stress-free reading-wise. But, peer pressure, exciting reading…
