While back in Newfoundland I've spent a lot of time study and expanded my (very limited) knowledge of cafes in St. John's. I normally just spend my time at Jumping Bean, seeing as there is a tragic shortage of non-chain cafes here. But I think I might have just discovered a new winner. Georgetown Cafe… Continue reading Cafe Collection #2
Review: Nevernight by Jay Kristoff
Nevernight! My first Jay Kristoff novel! And what a way to dive in. Like I said in my review of Illuminae, Kristoff is definitely one of my new favourite authors. He is not afraid at all to kill off characters, to write some dark fiction, and I LOVE it. It's such a tempo change from… Continue reading Review: Nevernight by Jay Kristoff
Review: Illuminae by Jay Kristoff & Amy Kaufman
So as it turns out, to continue my excitement after exiting my reading block, I fell into a Jay Kristoff marathon. Starting with Nevernight, I peeked over to my TBR shelf and saw - you guessed it - Illuminae! I've always been interested in how authors collaborate on books. Like, does one author take certain… Continue reading Review: Illuminae by Jay Kristoff & Amy Kaufman
Review: A Court of Frost and Starlight by Sarah J Maas
Excuse me while I crawl out from under the rock that I have been hiding under for the past few months. Classic me, I didn't plan my time well enough and ended up getting swamped by my finals and summer courses. It's been a wild time, but I'd say that it's been time well spent.… Continue reading Review: A Court of Frost and Starlight by Sarah J Maas
Cafe Collection #1
Happy summer!! I cannot tell you how relieved I am to finally be done winter term! It felt both extremely long and super short at the same time. I'm still in school (doing a summer course, yay!) but having a light workload is really a relief haha. And having less to do means I can… Continue reading Cafe Collection #1
Review: Every Note Played by Lisa Genova
Happy Easter and Happy Passover to everyone who celebrates these holidays! I hope that everyone had a lovely weekend (or, if you're like me, a long weekend!). I spent most of it relaxing with my mom, reading and studying. What was I reading, you might ask? Well, Every Note Played by Lisa Genova, which incidentally… Continue reading Review: Every Note Played by Lisa Genova

Today is the release day of The Room on Rue Amelie by Kristin Harmel! This is one of two ARCs that I received from Simon & Schuster Canada this spring in exchange for an honest review, and I can't wait to tell you guys what I thought about this one. I'll try to keep my… Continue reading Review: The Room on Rue Amelie by Kristin Harmel!
Review: Forgotten Rebel by Erin McDermott
Hello! Happy St. Patrick's Day! Although I don't celebrate this day much other than wearing green (which weirdly I wore yesterday rather than today), its still a big thing in my home province of Newfoundland. Also, you know who is rocking a green outfit? Fanny on the cover of Forgotten Rebel! Thats right! Erin McDermott… Continue reading Review: Forgotten Rebel by Erin McDermott
Re-review: Unravel Me by Tahereh Mafi
You know, I feel like I should re-read books more often - it's funny to go back and read my old reviews on Goodreads. Maybe I'll make this an actual series - this summer would give me a great opportunity to do so! Would people be interested in that? Anyways, here's my re-review of Unravel… Continue reading Re-review: Unravel Me by Tahereh Mafi
Bookmarks are growing on me…
Good morning all! What a week! My spring break/reading week has officially begun and I'm so excited to see my family. I'm planning on doing so much this week, with studying, reading and hanging out with friends and family all on my schedule. But first, I thought that I would do my very first product… Continue reading Bookmarks are growing on me…
Re-Review: Shatter Me by Tahereh Mafi
I'm sure some of you can agree with me with I saw re-reading books is such a trip! Especially books that you've medium reviewed on goodreads, and you go back and see what you wrote and cringe (a lot). That was my experience with the Shatter Me series. Don't get me wrong, I did ultimately… Continue reading Re-Review: Shatter Me by Tahereh Mafi
Review: Chalice by Robin McKinley
This month I've found myself going through a ton of re-reads. I finally recharged my Kobo that I used frequently about 5 or 6 years ago and I discovered that I actually have a lot of books on there. One such book being Chalice by Robin McKinley. Now when I first read this (say 6… Continue reading Review: Chalice by Robin McKinley
