Rating: 3.5/5 I enjoyed reading this book! Wendell gave me major Howl vibes—dramatic, charming, and a little chaotic—which is probably why I loved him so much. I also liked how he was portrayed the way faeries were described back then—fickle, unpredictable, and mischievous—which made his character fe

The title immediately caught my attention—after all, it’s about cats, and I love anything related to floofs. I was genuinely excited to start reading, but unfortunately, the story didn’t live up to my expectations. I found myself checking how much longer I had left, just wanting to reach the end. The

A solid 5. So I picked up The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo after a disastrous read. Best decision ever. It only took me two days because I physically couldn’t put it down. Evelyn Hugo is such a fascinating, complex, flawed, and utterly magnetic character, the kind that makes you pause mid-sentence

2.5 stars (being generous because my stubbornness finished it) I should’ve known better than to trust the hype again. Katabasis had the whole book community raving, so naturally I thought, “Wow, this must be amazing!” Five days later, I’m questioning both my life choices and my reading stamina. Alice

It is definitely a hope-core book and while it’s heart-warming and makes you think about your own life, parts have become repetitive. I related to Natsumi in some ways, but aside from that, nothing really struck me or stayed with me after finishing the book. It’s pleasant enough in the moment, but n

Contrary to Strange Pictures, I actually enjoyed Strange Houses more. It was a fun read overall, though I still felt that some sections fell a little flat. For a mystery novel, it leaned too much toward spoon-feeding the reader — the very first theory presented, no matter how far-fetched or ridiculo

Strong premise and started off really well, but later felt a bit dragging and sometimes pretentious. I get that Nora had to live all those alternate lives, but I kept thinking about the “other Norras” whose lives were disrupted whenever she took over — which left me unsettled. Still, there are some g

I quite enjoyed the first book, so I went into this one with high expectations. Unfortunately, it didn’t quite live up to them. Compared to the first, this installment felt flat—some parts came across as cringy and directionless, almost like filler rather than meaningful contributions to the story.

This book has been recommended to me so many times as a fan of mystery novels. With all the hype it’s gained in the group I’m in, I thought it had to be a must-read. And while it was good, I was honestly a bit disappointed. The story leading up to the twist felt anticlimactic—I expected more tension

I honestly didn’t expect to enjoy The Song of Achilles as much as I did, but wow… I was completely captivated by the way it was written. The lines just pull you in so effortlessly. ✨ Sad, yes—but heartbreak has never felt this beautiful. 🖤🧡
