April Wrap Up & Haul

May 14, 2018

April was a crazy month and I haven’t been reading or blogging at all but I still wanted to post a quick wrap up and hopefully this sparks some blogging motivation. I started a new full-time job and went part-time in my old one so to say my time management is a bit out of … More April Wrap Up & Haul

Two teens must learn the “art of killing” in this Printz Honor–winning book, the first in a chilling new series from Neal Shusterman, author of the New York Times bestselling Unwind dystology.

Chaos Walking – Trilogy Review

March 7, 2018

As series reviews go there’s always going to be slight spoilers in the second and third reviews, just like reading their synopsis will give away who’s still alive and what not, so if you want to go in completely blind do not read 🙂  The Knife of Never Letting Go I changed my rating so … More Chaos Walking – Trilogy Review

Mini Reviews: Sci Fi

February 19, 2018

So many books to review… so little time XD More mini reviews to come but for now here are my recent sci-fi books that I didn’t hate and I didn’t loooove so they’ve made it into a joint review post. I don’t think I have any debut sci fi releases on my radar for this … More Mini Reviews: Sci Fi

Strange Weather by Joe Hill

December 15, 2017

A collection of four chilling novels, ingeniously wrought gems of terror from the brilliantly imaginative, #1 New York Timesbestselling author of The Fireman, Joe Hill. This book overall was really awesome and I enjoyed it more than I thought I would. Short stories can be really hit or miss but I shouldn’t have had doubt that Joe … More Strange Weather by Joe Hill

Perfect Remains by Helen Fields

December 14, 2017

On a remote Highland mountain, the body of Elaine Buxton is burning. All that will be left to identify the respected lawyer are her teeth and a fragment of clothing.

Sleeping Beauties by Stephen & Owen King

December 8, 2017

In a future so real and near it might be now, something happens when women go to sleep; they become shrouded in a cocoon-like gauze. If they are awakened, if the gauze wrapping their bodies is disturbed or violated, the women become feral and spectacularly violent; and while they sleep they go to another place. … More Sleeping Beauties by Stephen & Owen King

My names Casey and I’m a book lover, all through my life books have helped me no matter the situation, I read all genres but lately I’m a big fantasy and sci-fi reader. I listen to a lot of audio books and tend to love auto-biographies. I started this blog in 2016 (do not go back to those posts I really warn you the cringe is to real) and a lot has changed since then but my love for reading and spreading that love hasn’t. This blog is book based but I’m going to start incorporating more life updates. I can’t wait to dive into all the stories with everyone ❤️
