Wilder Girls was one of the standout books for 2019 for me, surpassing any and all expectations. It was the perfect combination of Horror, Suspense, and Romance. Thus I am absolutely THRILLED to see a new book by Rory Power coming out! Ever since Margot was born, it’s been just her and her mother. No […]
REVIEW: Call Down The Hawk
My Thoughts: As I stated in my Waiting For Wednesday post for Call Down The Hawk, I am a latecomer to The Raven Cycle, but goodness did I fall hard for these all. Especially Adam and Ronan and their slow-burn romance. I think I whooped out loud when they finally kissed. This was definitely one […]
Seventy-Seven Saturday: Call Down The Hawk
Ronan pressed the heel of his hand against his eye, checking for nightwash, but it wasn’t bad yet. “I’m not that big of an asshole.” Page 77 Snippet – Call Down The Hawk. So I have already read past this point in the book and this scene! OMG! This scene was peak Lynch and Parrish! […]
Seventy-Seven Saturday: Slay
I don’t know what she wants me to say to this, so I let her keep talking. I think that’s partially why we’ve been friends for so long – she fills the spaces I would otherwise leave silent. Page 77 Snippet – Slay by Brittney Morris I’m not even sure why but this snippet made […]
REVIEW: Undead Girl Gang
My Thoughts: I had heard mixed reviews of this book but decided to give it a go, because if you have known me for even a second; lesbian witches is something I’m in for ALWAYS. I didn’t expect to cry as often as I did in this book. In the long run, this book was […]
October OwlCrate Unboxing
I’m so excited to bring you today’s post! As many of you might know I have been receiving OwlCrate since April, and I really love it. I have talked a bit about the books that have come with it. So far everyone book I have read has been a great read. Last month I tried […]
REVIEW: Pumpkinheads
My Thoughts: Okay, I feel like I’m a minority in this as I didn’t enjoy this as much as I thought I was going to. I really wanted to but it just, in the end, was a real let down for me. The story starts out cute and while the ending is also cute there […]
REVIEW: Cannonball
My Thoughts: This is such a hard review to write because on one hand I really enjoyed many aspects of this story. One the other I absolutely HATED the main character. She treats her friends as rubbish, she’s elitist and entitled. Even when she has succeeded she’s bitter and grumpy. I just wanted to shake […]
REVIEW: Her Royal Highness
My Thoughts: I have to say when I first started this book I wasn’t sure I was going to like it. I found millie at times a rather annoying narrator. I personally really found the setup scenes boring just take me to Scotland already! Besides the ex and one of the friends the other friends […]
REVIEW: Sadie
My Thoughts: First off I listened to the audiobook for this and while this isn’t something I often mention when I have done so, this case is different.* The audiobook takes this book to the next level with a full cast of talented voice actors everything is 1000% better. Sadie alternates between chapters of a […]
Seventy- Seven Saturday: American Royals
His words were both a question and a promise. All Nina could do was nod. She shrugged out of his jacket and handed it to him before heading back inside. Page 77 Snippet — American Royals by Katharine McGee So I had heard a few things about this book and was interested in it, vaguely. […]
Waiting For Wednesday: The Gravity Of Us
I’m honestly a bit surprised that I haven’t already posted about this. I have been hearing about it everywhere for ages. I was so positive that I had already posted but think I got confused with Something like Gravity. As a successful social media journalist with half a million followers, seventeen-year-old Cal is used to […]
REVIEW: Wayward Son
My Thoughts: This is a hard book to review because while I like it a lot, I’m not sure many readers of Carry On will. Don’t get me wrong it is a very good book, but also a very different type of book from Carry On. Which I think is appropriate. Simon, Penelope, Agatha, and […]
REVIEW: Frankly in Love
My Thoughts: First off, I absolutely adore the fact that the title is a pun on Frank Li’s name like that’s just perfect. Secondly, fake dating is my all-time favourite ever romance trope. So, of course, I was totally in for this diverse cute romance. YOU GUYS I WAS PLAYED! I got more than a […]
Waiting For Wednesday: Who Put This Song On?
This is a book I only recently stumbled upon and sounds like something I’m really interested in. I am learning I really like books that talk about identity and how to navigate and discover yours while living in a society that wants us to all be the same. Trapped in sunny, stifling, small-town suburbia, seventeen-year-old […]
Blog Tour: I Am Change
They told her that her body belonged to men and her mind didn’t matter. They were wrong. “What if I don’t want to marry?” Lillian held her breath. She had never said the words out loud. “Not want to marry?” Her aunt frowned. “What else would you do?” Set in a Ugandan village, Lilian has learned to […]

Loner Sam flies under the radar at school and walks on eggshells at home to manage her mom’s obsessive-compulsive disorder, wondering how she can ever leave to pursue her dream of studying aerospace engineering.

REVIEW: Hot Dog Girl
Elouise (Lou) Parker is determined to have the absolute best, most impossibly epic summer of her life. There are just a few things standing in her way: * She’s landed a job at Magic Castle Playland . . . as a giant dancing hot dog.* Her crush, the dreamy Diving Pirate Nick, already has a […]
Waiting For Wednesday: The Babysitters Coven
The Babysitters Coven is being touted as Babysitters Club meets Buffy The Vampire Slayer! Just YES! GIVE! IT! TO! ME! Surprising probably absolutely no one I loved The Babysitters Club as a kid reading the books well past when I was too old of them. Seventeen-year-old Esme Pearl has a babysitters club. She knows it’s […]
