Review: The Shadows Between Us

The Shadows Between UsThe Shadows Between Us by Tricia Levenseller
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Every time someone asked me if I have a literary crush, I always answer no. But now, I think I found one… his name is Kallias Maheras. He is the Shadow King. I was surprised by this novel and had no choice but to love it. I love the plot, the characters, and the suspense. I was sad when I finished the book because I wanted more. I wish it was not a stand-alone. This would have been a fantastic series. I particularly love the way Tricia Levenseller gave her female characters so much freedom and power. It was so refreshing. This book has all the right elements to be a bestseller: deception, poison, murders, envy, and love.

I recommend this book to older youth as the sexual content might be a bit much for young teenagers. As an adult, you will love this book.

🙋🏼‍♀️ Thank you, RainCoast Books for sending me an ARC of this fantabulous novel. 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗦𝗵𝗮𝗱𝗼𝘄𝘀 𝗕𝗲𝘁𝘄𝗲𝗲𝗻 𝗨𝘀 by Tricia Levenseller will be available at your favourite bookstore on February 25, 2020.

Review: Fight For Her by Liz Plum

Fight For Her  by  Liz Plum My rating:  3 of 5 stars 📚 Hello Book Friends! FIGHT FOR HER by Liz Plum is a coming-of-age YA Romance. It is an easy-going story about a love triangle between a popular girl, a star athlete, and a bad boy. The story was interesting and had some potential. It was just a bit too juvenile for my taste and sometimes too dramatic. It is nonetheless an enjoyable love story if you put your teenager's thinking cap on. The author delivered a good story with a lovely ending. #bookstadog #poodles #poodlestagram #poodlesofinstagram #furbabies #dogsofinstagram #bookstagram #dogsandbooks #bookishlife #bookishlove #bookstagrammer #books #booklover #bookish #bookaholic #reading #readersofinstagram #instaread #ilovebooks #bookishcanadians #canadianbookstagram #bookreviewer #bookcommunity #bibliophile #fightforher #lizplum #bookreview View all my reviews

Review: Waves by Ingrid Chabbert

Waves  by  Ingrid Chabbert My rating:  5 of 5 stars WAVES, written by Ingrid Chabbert and beautifully illustrated by Carole Maurel, is a deeply personal and poetic graphic novel that explores the profound journey of a young couple trying to conceive. Drawing from the author's own experience, the story delves into the emotional depths of heartbreak, resilience, and the power of hope. The use of metaphors in Waves is exceptional, creating a mesmerizing reading experience. Chabbert skillfully weaves together the themes of writing, coping, and healing, forming a profound connection between the protagonist's pain and her quest for renewal. The dreamlike illustrations by Carole Maurel add an ethereal touch to the narrative, particularly in the visual depiction of the boat and waves of paper. While the subject matter is emotionally intense, WAVES is an extraordinary work that invites readers to embrace vulnerability and contemplate the complexities of life. I highly recommend this gra
