Thank you to Marisol Folks and the HarperCollins Canada Influencer program for NetGalley access to the eARC of One of the Good Ones by Maika & Maritza Moulite. This was the first time I received a widget outside of blog tour commitments, which is quite exciting. That said, this has not influenced my opinion. My…

I just want to say, this was a long time coming! I pre-ordered Cemetery Boys, got way too busy with blog tours, realized I could borrow the audiobook on Libby, and decided I would just wait my turn for that. Libby says I returned the audiobook on Dec 7th so we’ll go with that as…

It’s December, which means I should start reflecting on the last year of reading and do a bit of a year-end wrap-up soon. On the group blog I write for I’ve been scheduled to do my top 10 reads of the year post this coming Saturday, December 12th, so I’ve decided to make my year…
2020 has been a fantastic year for me as a reader because it’s the year I finally signed up for reviewer accounts on NetGalley and Edelweiss and the year I finally got onboard with virtual library services like Libby. This combined with joining the “Book Twitter” community means I’ve had a lot of great recommendations…

I was very fortunate and excited to be granted access to an ARC of Legendborn by Tracy Deonn through the publisher, Margaret K. McElderry Books via NetGalley. I cannot say enough good things about this book! It did release yesterday, September 15th, and if you’ve been following me on Twitter you’ll notice I was replying…
I’ve reviewed a lot of children’s literature through NetGalley in recent months, and though I don’t want to be known as a kid lit presence and thus haven’t been shouting these out from the roof tops, I do feel like they deserve a bit of a spotlight. So why not do a round-up? Please note…

Happy Pride, everyone! I hope you’re all doing well. It’s unfortunate that Rowling has chosen June, Pride, to spew more transphobic hate on Twitter. It’s even more unfortunate that this is a double down on anti-trans statements she made in December, and even just that this sort of hate is what she’s choosing to use…
