Assistant to the Villain by Hannah Nicole Maehrer
Assistant to the Villain is another book that took a backseat on my TBR for far too long. It got pushed back again and again on my reading list in favor of upcoming releases. Clearing my November schedule of deadlines gave me the time to finally get to it. I’m very glad that I did.…

Emily Wilde’s Encyclopaedia of Faeries by Heather Fawcett
One of the reasons that I created No-Deadline-November for myself is because I wanted to catch up on my TBR pile. I get to read a lot of brand-new books before their release. It’s a lot of fun, but recently it’s meant that books that have been out longer have taken a backseat. It was…

How to Dream by Thich Nhat Hanh
I’ve made no secret of feeling burnt out lately. In fact, this review is coming a couple weeks after I’ve finished the book. This month, I needed a book that wasn’t going to feel too heavy, and I wanted to know I would like it. That made it an easy choice. I had an unread…

The topic wasn’t as highlighted in this week’s reading, but both books still included a strong female lead. Truthfully, I didn’t plan to follow any theme this week, but there ended…

Reading Recap: November Continues
I bring you another week’s worth of reading recap as November continues! After feeling some motivation after last week’s reading, this week I got to two titles that were big on feminism. They featured powerful female characters and powerful messages. Or perhaps I should say “warnings.” Both were extremely satisfying. 1. The Lost Apothecary –…

Reading Recap: November’s Start
November’s start is now behind us. I got two books read from cover to cover, even though I was reading more slowly this week than I usually do. I went a bit heavy on the doom scrolling. This week I’m intend to redouble my efforts to avoid that, so the next list might be longer.…
