How to Hang a Witch by Adriana Mather *Stephanie’s Review*
[book-info] There is no way I wasn’t going to like How to Hang a Witch by Adriana Mather. A book about Salem Massachusetts; a book about the Salem Witch trials but set in today’s world; a book written by a descendant of a very prominent person of the Witch Trials? Yes to all of the…

Between Shades of Gray by Ruta Sepetys *Stephanie’s Review*
[book-info] I wanted to read Between Shades of Gray by Ruta Sepetys when I saw Alexa talking about how much she enjoyed it quite awhile back. I have never read a book by Sepetys before and I figured Between Shades of Gray was as good a place to start as any! I am not going…

Perfect by Cecelia Ahern *Stephanie’s Review*
[book-info] I had been wonderfully surprised by Flawed so I was anxious to get Perfect by Cecelia Ahern.

Beautiful Creatures by Kami Garcia & Margaret Stohl *Stephanie’s Review*
[book-info] I originally read Beautiful Creatures by Kami Garcia and Margaret Stohl several years ago and loved it. Then the movie killed all enthusiasm for me.

[book-info] After a sad read I wanted something to get my blood pumping and I was hoping Three Truths and a Lie by Brent Hartinger would fill that need. Unfortunately I was disappointed. I still gave it three stars but it didn’t blow me out of the water like I had been hoping. The plot…

Goodbye Days by Jeff Zentner *Stephanie’s Review*
[book-info] I adored Zentner’s debut The Serpent King. It was easily one of my top picks of 2016. It packed a wallop of emotions and frankly I wasn’t expecting it. It was like a sleeper book; sent to me in my OwlCrate subscription and patiently waiting to attack. It only made sense to pick up…

The Crown’s Game by Evelyn Skye *Stephanie’s Review*
[book-info] I buddy read The Crown’s Game by Evelyn Skye with Alexa. I had seen a few prominent people in the bookish community talking about just how awesome this book was.

Lady Renegades by Rachel Hawkins *Stephanie’s Review*
[book-info] After Miss Mayhem I didn’t know if I wanted to continue the Rebel Belle series but Lady Renegades by Rachel Hawkins wrapped up a series for me so I decided to push through. I’m so glad I did! Spoilers AHOY matey! Both for the series AND LADY RENEGADES!! I can’t give you my feelings…
