My To Be Read List

  I am in the middle of the next book of my series right now, so instead of a typical book review I’ll show you my current to be read (TBR) list! Caraval by Stephanie Garbe r I already read Once Upon a Broken Heart and I loved it! Carava l is supposed to give a backstory to the characters of Once Upon a Broken heart so I am disappointed that I wasn’t aware of this and read Once Upon a Broker Heart before reading Caraval. Either way, I’ve heard this book is a great fantasy book and I can’t wait to dive back into the Once Upon a Broken heart world! Better Than the Movies by Lynn Painter One of my friends is currently reading this book and is really enjoying it. I have also heard many good things online. Although it seems to be a fluffy romance with no true thoughtfulness, sometimes that can be very enjoyable. I have read Betting on You by the same author, which I liked a lot! Verity Colleen Hoover My sister read this book and LOVED it. It is a thriller / romance, which is very in...

Classic books: An introduction to popular novels and my opinions

                  Do you ever get tired of the books you read? Maybe you’ve been stuck in the same genre for a while or are looking for something different to try. Whether your go-to genres are sci-fi, fantasy, mystery, or anything else, I think everyone should try classic books! Classic books offer insight into the culture of the time they were written and can provide valuable lessons for people of any age or background. In this post, I’ll share a list of popular books for you to try out and what I think about them. Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury dives into the dangers of censorship through the eyes of a fireman whose job is to burn books. This book is thought-provoking and will show you the value of free speech. It’s especially fun for Dystopian readers because it’s interesting to see the connections between older Dystopian books and more modern ones, as this was written in 1953. My only criticisms of the book are how the ominou...

Absolute Superman

The Absolute DC Universe is supposed to be a much more grim and darker version of the normal DC universe. I decided to read the series, set in this universe, about Superman who is usually seen as a bright, strong "boy scout", that flies around metropolis and saves the city. In the Absolute universe, Superman helps the poor and the groups of people and workers oppressed by the large corrupt organization called Lazarous Corp. The origins of Superman slightly differ from the normal origins. The comic starts by showing a scene, on Krypton, Superman is just a boy named Kal El and Kal's parents are waiting for rain that has already been paid for, because on Krypton rain is artificial. Kal was a part of the laboring class as both his parents were extremely bright but were not allowed to join the high-ranking Science League, or the Klerics, due to his parents speaking out against the use of their world and its natural resources. It is discovered that Krypton will soon die as a pl...

Fate of the Sun King Review

  My review of the book Fate of the Sun King . I’m sure all of you readers have been on the edge of your seat for me to finish the next book in the Artefacts of Ouranos series (my last post). So, yay here it is!! I would also like to note that I missed a book in this series called Rule of the Aurora King , so don’t be confused about that.  First of all, this book was LONGGG (560 pages). In fact, all of the books in this series are pretty long, ranging from 400 to 600 pages, so don’t be surprised about that like I was. However, this book was a great read and worth your time. The author definitely stepped up her writing and the world is starting to make more sense. However, the writing is a bit childish, but thats not always a bad thing. I would classify this book as a fluffy book, it has fairly light themes and doesn’t require very much in depth thought and deliberation to understand the plot.  The book starts off from a perspective that we don’t hear from often, a ...
