I knew this book will end on a cliffhanger but it ended so abruptly I was shocked! 

I really enjoyed reading this spicy dark Red Riding Hood retelling, it was exciting and captivating. I loved meeting Ruby and the three big bad wolves, they were adorable.

I am so intrigued to see where the story will goes from here, I definitely would love to get to know the characters more in depth in the future. I highly recommend this book if you’re looking for an exciting dark and very spicy fairytale retelling of Red Riding Hood.

My Mystical Path is a powerful and inspiring book about a journey of spiritual growth, healing from emotional abuse, grief and surviving cancer twice. It tells a beautiful story of self improvement, love and faith. 

Written beautifully and in an engaging way I very much enjoyed and appreciated this book, I loved reading Donna’s spiritual journey and I know this read can help so many people. The book talks about how important self love is, you need to love yourself first so you can love others. 

I loved this book and I highly recommend reading it to everyone, it is definitely a very important must read!

Extraordinary, raw and tender. This was the most beautiful, inspiring and emotional read I’ve read in a long time, if ever. This memoir was full of love, strength, fight and sadness. It’s truly difficult to review this book because their life together was truly beautiful and special. This memoir was written beautifully with full of love. I couldn’t put it down, it left me in tears but also with a smile on my face.

I have no words, but one thing is certain. Everyone needs to read this book!

Sanctuary of the Shadow was such a fantastic and exciting read! It was unique and a true roller coaster of emotions especially towards the end. I’m so glad to know that this is a first book in a new series, I cannot wait for book two.

I absolutely loved Harrow and Raith’s relationship they dynamic was incredible. Raith was the absolute best character! 
The storyline of the book was so captivating and truly unique I really enjoyed my time reading it. Of course the spicy scenes were phenomenal as well! 

Highly recommend this amazing romantasy read!

Listen for the Lie was a mysterious and humorous thriller novel about a woman named Lucy who is accused of murdering her best friend. But the twist is she doesn’t remember anything from that night.

This was such an entertaining book, the podcast element of the book was so fun especially on audiobook it gave me the best experience, the music before the episodes and the narrators was brilliant. I loved the main character, Lucy she had such a great personality and she is so strong!

I highly recommend this read to anyone who wants something fun and thrilling.

A Change of Reign: Realm of the Unimages was a fascinating story about a young unicorn, Princess Sallina and her new friend Szymon, another unicorn transformed into human to fulfill their mission and save their homeland and their entire civilization from a meteor. This was a tale of courage, friendship and acceptance.

I really enjoyed this adventurous and magical journey, the characters were so easily likable the storyline was intriguing and fun. I cannot wait for the next books in this series!

I highly recommend reading this book to anyone!

Lydia and Adam are soulmates! I love how they understand and accept each other, even the darkness that lies within them. They can be who they are with each other and I think it’s truly beautiful and even though this story isn’t a romance novel it definitely is the most perfect love story I’ve ever read! 

There is just something so special and unique about this story that I cannot explain. I wholeheartedly loved this twisted and dark story and I wish I could read it for the first time again. I feel like these two characters became everything to me and this book is definitely my new all time favorite book ever!

I highly recommend this book to everyone, it is a true masterpiece!
