  • The Words That Built the Story: A Study of Jay Kristoff’s Writing Style

    The Words that Built the Story is a feature in which I dissect and discuss an author’s writing style. Today’s study is on Jay Kristoff. Out of all the authors I’ve covered so far on this feature, I’d say Jay Kristoff’s writing style is the most polarizing. Even among fans, there are times we love

  • The Best Books of 2019

    Despite reading less books than years past, I would qualify 2019 as my best reading year. It was certainly better than 2018, when I only managed to read about 70 books.

    Everybody knows that the annual Goodreads Choice Awards is nothing more than a popularity contest. But that doesn’t stop us from arguing over it every year. It’s human nature, baby! So I thought it would be fun to react to this year’s winners and share which books I think should’ve won instead. In the spirit

  • Halloween Book Tag

    In case I haven’t been obvious, Halloween is my favorite holiday. I wish spooky season lasted longer than a month. In fact, I’m considering doing a second spookathon in December inspired by The Nightmare Before Christmas (in the sense that I will be mixing the two holidays together). In the spirit of Halloween, I thought
