A short story collection, all original pieces inspired by the Brontë line, “Reader, I married him,” from Jane Eyre.
Some were very enjoyable, others were very odd. Overall a solid collection.

Y‘all- it‘s happened…. I‘ve fallen into the SJM rabbit hole and it‘s all I can think about.

The beginning was a bit slow but WOW the end will get ya hooked. 3.5⭐️

**my brother got me a kindle so I‘ve been blowing through some books without reviewing, apologies up top for the inundation of reviews by me and terrible pics**

Such a good read. A witchy take on Romeo and Juliet (ish). It was so good, the main characters were intriguing and I overall would recommend this book to anyone 4⭐️

I enjoyed the writing again but the first one was better. Waiting for book three. Just barely a pick, giving it a break due to my love of Legendborn.

⭐️⭐️⭐️1/2

Whenever you think your love life sucks, just remember that I fell in love with a boy whose name I didn‘t know.
Let‘s be clear: I didn‘t mean to fall in love. It just sort of happened, the way falling usually does.

Stone Blind: A Novel | Natalie Haynes

Can‘t believe I forgot to add this to my list! I‘ve always been a huge fan of Greek mythology, and have thoroughly enjoyed the retelling of many stories from a female perspective. This book is written by Natalie Haynes; English writer, broadcaster, classicist, and comedian - she is frakking brilliant and cannot write books fast enough to sate my appetite! Even more, listen to her podcast, Natalie Haynes Stands Up For the Classics.

GondorGirl This is probably my favorite mythology retelling. Natalie Haynes is a gift. 🥰 9h

“I am the maker of my own destiny.”

This book whisked me away to a beautiful, magical world full of mythology and lore. The descriptions were vivid and entrancing. The character connections were tender and wholesome. Overall, the story left me happy and hopeful. Thanks for sharing it with me, Kate!! 4.25/5

BookLove4Ever I loved this story! It had beautiful imagery. 8h
