Reviews

Hello! Decided to create this page for better ease of access to all of the ARC / book reviews I post on this blog. I may still have a thing or two (or many) to figure out about blogging, but I wanted to make finding specific reviews easier than scrolling back through the homepage. All titles will be in alphabetical order by release year, and I will include author, publisher, and publication date. Happy reading!

Note – some of these reviews may overlap with my “Favorite Book of the Month” posts if the book was my favorite in the month I read it

An asterisk (*) indicates the title contains some kind of queer representation
