Book Reviews & Hauls

20 posts

This section is dedicated to the reviews of any books I’ve read. The books can be through my own point of purchase, gifted by friends and family, or shared by an author or publisher. All reviews are of my own opinion, and I welcome all readers to both agree and disagree with my sentiments! In addition to reviews, sometimes I just like buying books. Lately, I’ve been purchasing with a theme in mind, like Japanese authors or tortured women celebrate Galentine’s Day. I hope I eventually read them all, but sometimes the fun with books is simply collecting them.
