Posted on October 3, 2023 By Jenna No Comments on 5 Star Review: The Scarlet Alchemist by Kylie Lee Baker

Zilan dreams of becoming a royal alchemist, of providing for her family by making alchemical gold and gems for the wealthy to eat in order to stay young forever.

Book Review: A Tale of Two Princes by Eric Geron

Posted on January 13, 2023 By Jenna No Comments on Book Review: A Tale of Two Princes by Eric Geron

Will these long-lost twin princes be able to take on high school, coming out, and coronations together—or will this royal reunion quickly become a royal mess? I was granted eARC access to A Tale of Two Princes by Eric Geron courtesy of HarperCollins Canada as part of my participation in the HCC Influencers program. Thank…

The Keeper of Night by Kylie Lee Baker – 5 Star Book Review

Posted on October 11, 2021 By Jenna No Comments on The Keeper of Night by Kylie Lee Baker – 5 Star Book Review

Death is her destiny. I would like to start by thanking HarperCollins Canada and the HCC Frenzy (YA influencers) team for not one, not two, but THREE opportunities to read and enjoy this fantastic book before it hit the shelves. One of my most anticipated fall catalogue titles after the fall preview evening, I requested…

The Witch King – 4 Star Book Review

Posted on June 19, 2021 By Jenna No Comments on The Witch King – 4 Star Book Review

I’ve been excited about this book since I first spotted it in the Inkyard Press catalogue on Edelweiss many months ago, and I was gutted to be denied for an eARC copy. Luckily my wait for a library copy didn’t take too long and I was able to blast through this book not too long…

This Golden Flame – 5 Star Book Review

Posted on February 3, 2021 By Jenna No Comments on This Golden Flame – 5 Star Book Review

First of all, I have a lot of people at HarperCollins to thank for ARC access to this title. I am on the HarperCollins Canada influencer list and attended an online YA preview event in December 2020, which is when I heard about this book. Everything about it excited me! From the title and cover…

On My TBR Shelf [YouTube Companion Post]

Posted on January 11, 2021 By Jenna No Comments on On My TBR Shelf [YouTube Companion Post]

This is a companion post to my YouTube video for Monday January 11, 2021, because I vow to always have a companion post to accompany my videos for those who would prefer to read them, and this week is neither a review, a previously written article, or a tag. Let’s talk about some of the…

One of the Good Ones – 4 Star Book Review

Posted on January 9, 2021 By Jenna No Comments on One of the Good Ones – 4 Star Book Review

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…
