Me & Milo the Great (Spoiler-Free)

A million thank you’s to Michelle Schlicher for sending me a copy of her upcoming novel, Me & Milo the Great. Michelle sent me one of her books last year (Come This Way) and I LOVED it (I even bought a copy for my mom!), so I was obviously over the moon to review another one of her books. And 1) Me & Milo the Great did NOT disappoint! I’m really excited to tell you all about it – spoiler-free, of course! Besides the fact that spoiler-free is my modus operandi, M&MTG doesn’t actually come out until September 14th (so close, yet so far!), but fear not! You can pre-order online 😊 And 2) can we talk about this cover, please??? I love everything about it – the colors, the silhouettes, the font 😍 It’s got a minimalist and creative vibe goin’ on and I just can’t even ❤️ …Alright, someone stop me from staring at this cover – read the review – quick! 

Harmonies of War (Spoiler-Free)

Thank you, thank you to Ruby Fitzgerald for sending me her book, Harmonies of War! And! The package I got from Ruby included not just the book, but tons of other themed goodies, too! I’m talkin’ candles, a bookmark, and even a Harmonies of War map! How awesome is that??? (Answer: Incredibly awesome.) Read on for my spoiler-free review! Disclaimer: I shared this review with Ruby before posting.

Instagram Pros and Instagram Woes

This is something I’ve been meaning to write for quite some time. With all the changes Instagram has been implementing recently, I wanted to provide some constructive criticism, but also point out the positive aspects as well, so we don’t get bogged down by the negatives. I’ll also be posting an abridged version to Instagram’s App review section, in the hope that they might take some of this feedback into consideration (fingers crossed 🤞). Alrighty! Let’s dive right in! I’ll start with the woes and finish up with the pros so we can end on a relatively high note 💕 

Summer on East End: Triple Moon (Spoiler-Free)

Have you seen Witches of East End? Ian and I watched it on Netflix last year and loved it. It’s based off of a 2011 novel by Melissa de la Cruz. I haven’t read it, but when I saw Summer on East End: Triple Moon at BookCon, I had to give it a try. It takes place in the same East End universe as the tv series…kinda. …It’s hard to explain. Anyway, that’s neither here nor there. Read on for my spoiler-free thoughts on Triple Moon. 

The Coldest Girl in Coldtown (Spoiler-Free)

I read The Coldest Girl in Coldtown by Holly Black (which I bought at BookCon) last month and loved it! This was my second Holly Black read and I’m finding that she is incredibly consistent, while also fantastically unique in her writing, plot, characters, setting, everything! Read on for my spoiler-free thoughts of TCGIC.
