The Last Soul Among Wolves by Melissa CarusoI'm making good progress on my ARCs for the remainder of the year and am hoping to stay a month ahead of schedule since I have less time to read now. The Last Soul Among Wolves is my last August ARC and one I'm really looking forward to.... Continue Reading →
The Executioners Three by Susan DennardIn an effort to stay ahead of my looming TBR, I'm picking up another August release because somehow July is more than halfway over already. The Executioners Three is the first in a new YA series following an aspiring teenage sleuth investigating a series of murders and supernatural events happening... Continue Reading →
The Everlasting by Alix E. HarrowI basically shrieked when I got approved for this! And I was so excited that I went ahead and started reading this after finishing up my previous read. I'm going to a local event in a few weeks where Alix Harrow will be speaking, so I'm still holding out hope... Continue Reading →
The Library at Mount Char by Scott HawkinsIsn't this just the weirdest book I've ever read? I've had it on my TBR for years and decided to make time for it and I just... can't quite put my feelings into words yet. Perhaps once I've finished I'll be able to write a proper review and...

Arcana Academy by Elise KovaThis has a competitive school setting and a cool tarot based magic system. I was a little skeptical at first because certain elements were kind of generic or 'seen it before', but I'm actually having a lot of fun with it! I'll probably finish Arcana Academy today, but I have NO... Continue Reading →
The Grimoire Grammar School Parent Teacher Association by Caitlin RozakisI got a little distracted a few weeks ago and ended up reading something else when I had planned to start Grimoire Grammar School. Now I'm finally coming back to this and thus far it's cute but somehow oddly stressful. Like, the main character Vivian's concerns... Continue Reading →
The Enchanted Greenhouse by Sarah Beth DurstThis is delightful and maintains that same nice cozy vibe from The Spellshop, but with more talking plants! I'll be finished this book early in the week (maybe today!) and will hopefully have a review up in the next couple weeks. The Knight and the Moth by Rachel GilligIt... Continue Reading →
Sharps by K.J. ParkerI initially heard about this book from a reviewer on Booktube (The Library of Allenxandria) and thought it sounded cool. This is a standalone that follows a group of fencers as they do a tour through a neighboring kingdom in the name of diplomacy. I'm not far into it, but it's political... Continue Reading →
The Irresistible Urge to Fall For Your Enemy by Brigitte KnightleyI'm still working my way through some July ARCs (yay for productivity!) and this is next up on my reading list. I think this sounds really fun and the few pages I've read are off to a good start! This is the first of the... Continue Reading →
The Medusa Protocol by Rob HartSince June is rapidly approaching, it's high time I pick up The Medusa Protocol! This is the sequel to Assassins Anonymous which was one of my top reads of 2024 and it follows Astrid, another of the Assassins Anonymous members who gets captured and must find a way to escape...
