Salt & Broom by Sharon Lynn Fisher
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

SALT & BROOM by Sharon Lynn Fisher is a magical retelling of Jane Eyre that captivated me from the start. With witches, fairies, and herbal healing, this imaginative twist on the classic 1847 tale is a must-read for any fan. Jane Aire, a witch from Lowood School, is hired by the enigmatic Edward Rochester to unravel the mysteries of Thornfield Hall. The story seamlessly blends Regency romance and fantasy, breathing fresh life into familiar characters. Fisher's creative portrayal of Jane's background and the banter between Jane and Rochester add depth and charm. The book's breezy writing, steady pacing, and air of mystery kept me eagerly turning pages. SALT & BROOM is a modern classic that left me thoroughly satisfied and uplifted—an enchanting and recommended read.

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
