Tales from the Shadowhunter Academy

Tales from the Shadowhunter Academy

My Thoughts: It’s not secret that I am a huge fan of Cassandra Clare’s Shadowhunter books. I’ve read and loved all the books out so far. I particularly loved learning more about Magnus Bane through The Bane Chronicles. I listened to the audiobook of each story and simply loved them! When I heard we would be hearing more… Read more »

Carry On

Carry On

My Thoughts: I am such a huge fan of Fangirl. I listened to the audiobook and really loved the narration. I especially liked the Simon Snow bits at the beginnings of the chapters.

As You Wish

As You Wish

I typically only review young adult books here. I know As You Wish: Inconceivable Tales from the Making of The Princess Bride was not published as such. However, I would have read the heck outta it as a teen so it totally fits 🙂 My Thoughts: First things first, I am a huge fan of The Princess Bride movie. I vividly remember… Read more »

A Mad, Wicked Folly

A Mad, Wicked Folly

My Thoughts: So, I was the worlds worst blogger earlier this year and I’m still playing catch up. Even so, I cannot believe I didn’t review this one. It’s certainly one of my favorites of the year! I loved the book itself and the audiobook narration is spot on. In A Mad Wicked Folly we meet… Read more »
