This one is hard to review because I tried reading it and it just wasn't very good. I dnf'd it. There was no connection with the characters, nothing was making me want to read any more of it. But, I started thinking about it and realized it might be better as an audiobook. The audiobook was so much better. The performance helped it come alive. The narrators really gave the characters more personality, making it easier to connect with them. ⬇️

The 3rd book wrapped up the storyline, except it wasn't clear on a few things. Overall, those details aren't very important, but it would have been nice not to speculate on how certain things happened and worked out. It was loosely open to more books, it's implied that they would have more adventures, but it wasn't a cliffhanger.

I enjoyed seeing the beginning of Sabrina. The comics are fun, not serious at all. It was interesting since the only thing I really had to compare it to was the show with Melissa Joan Hart. I really want to rewatch that show now.

Book 2 definitely felt like a complete story. However, it did end on a cliffhanger, and so many questions haven't been answered yet. It was better than the first book, but it did seem a bit unbelievable. It's a fun, interesting story, but don't expect it to be much more than that.

For a middle grade graphic novel, I actually enjoyed it. However, there were a few things that didn't quite flow correctly. It was fast paced, so some parts were skimmed over rather quickly. It ended on a cliffhanger, so now I have to read the second book to find out what happens. We really didn't get any answers to any questions throughout the book.

While I really did enjoy the book, I found that my mind started to wander while reading it. I liked the idea behind the story, but felt like there was nothing special about it. It was fun, though. I don't regret reading it. However, I don't know how long I will remember much about the story.

This one went quickly. I think I liked it more than I did the first one. Also, like the first one, this one ends on a cliffhanger.

The story itself was important, one I hadn't heard before now. I liked the idea behind it, but since it was basically transcribed from an interview, it didn't have as smooth of a flow that a book usually has.

I was not prepared for how emotional this book was. I figured a middle grade story wouldn't have such intense topics, but I was wrong. It was a great story, one that I will probably read again.

This first book was mostly setting up the rest of the series. It actually ended on a bit of a cliffhanger because it stopped suddenly right as the story was starting to pick up and really get into some action. I found it enjoyable, even though not much happened.

I really enjoyed this book. It was really cute. The ending did seem rushed, though. I really felt like it should have been much longer, or even that the story could have had a sequel instead of the epilogue. But, it was a good story still.

This was definitely a modern spin on the classic Nancy Drew stories. It was interesting, but it felt completely different from the originals. I enjoyed the art work.

This loose retelling of Anne of Green Gables managed to hold the same lively spirit as the original even though it is completely different. The magic element was really present in the story, it wasn't glanced over. Even though this is supposed to be for middle graders, there was something about the way that it was written that makes me think it might be a bit difficult for that age. There were also parts that were rushed and not explained well.

Belladonna was a little darker than I was expecting, but I did choose it for that reason. Most of the books I have been reading lately are lighthearted, I needed a change. I got what I wanted, and I was pleasantly surprised. The book is a bit on the slower side at the beginning, but the whole concept really drew me in. I really can't wait for the next book to come out.

I loved this book. I actually wanted more about these characters, I didn't feel like their story really had come to an end. It was a cute story, one that actually made me tear up a little at times.

I didn't realize this was part of a duology until I got to the end of the book. Now I am going to have to wait for the second part.

I loved the book. It was different from what I expect from YA Fantasy. There was a lot of focus on the relationship between the sisters. I really like seeing that. The moments with Raze and Seelie were so cute.

I was drawn into the story from the very first moment. It had a sort of magical feel to it.

This is a cute YA about a teen on a cooking show. I did find that they didn't talk a lot about the actual cooking, instead focusing on the relationships. Even though the book was a normal length, it didn't feel like they explored everything they could have. It was rushed on a lot of things that could have been developed better with just a few more pages. Overall, it was fun and adorable, I read it quickly.

I first read this book when I was younger, but at the time, I didn't really care for it. I never even finished the rest of the series. So, I decided to try them again. I enjoyed it much more this time around. I still wouldn't say it's one of my favorite books, but I did like it, and I actually want to continue the series this time.

There was a lot of good advice throughout the book, but it didn't quite count as a devotional. I still enjoyed it and found it to be motivating and inspiring. Journaling along with it would probably make it better. It felt real, like these 2 women really cared about the reader and wanted the best for them.

Chemistry 101 is a Christian Young Adult Romance. I thought it was absolutely adorable. There was a lot of character growth throughout the story, and we were introduced to characters who will hopefully have their own book at some point.
The book remained lighthearted even though there were some tough situations that would usually make a story very depressing. This one skimmed the surface of each issue while still dealing with them.
*ARC review

I struggled to get into this one, I thought it was rather boring during the first half. It started to pick up toward the end of the book, though. As a story to explain how they became the wicked stepsisters, it was fairly decent.

I decided to listen to this book to give this author another try after I didn't like a different book I had read. So, I went into this with low expectations. But, it surprised me. The story drew me in from the beginning. It was predictable, but let's face it, most romance books are. This one was cute, yet I didn't find it overly sweet. There was a good balance to it.

Listening to this was like having a discussion with a friend. She was raw and vulnerable throughout, sharing personal stories and what she has learned from them. It was really relatable and inspiring.

I loved how this book was all about Addie's journey, her character development, rather than a love story. The romance was just hinted at, hardly there at all. I actually wish the book had been longer. When I got to the end, it felt like it was just beginning.

I didn't know how much I needed a story like this until I read it. This was adorable. It was a lighter read than I was expecting. And I loved the artistry, it was so good.

This is a powerful story. I'm surprised something like this was written during that time. It gives such a raw, honest view that usually is only seen in hindsight. I really admire the author for this piece of work.

This is one of the better books of the series. There were some humorous moments, plus the typical mystery. I also liked seeing more of the relationships develop.

This was so cute. I listened to the audiobook in one sitting. It had some sad moments, but ultimately stayed lighthearted. I don't know how I didn't know about this book until just now.

I started this one during the holidays, but I never found the time to finish it. I finally started it up again a day or two ago, and I just flew through it. It is on the shorter side, but still enjoyable. It felt a lot like a Hallmark movie.

I have heard so much about this book that I honestly thought it wouldn't live up to the hype. I was wrong. I listened to the audiobook in one sitting, the way it was written kept me drawn in. It definitely makes you think about your own life and the choices you've made...what you are and aren't grateful for. It was really good.

I wanted to like this. It was well researched and gave a perspective I haven't seen before... but it was boring. I almost didn't finish it. The ending was when it finally started picking up and catching my interest. I think the book was trying to do too much and so it came across as a History book rather than a fictionalized account.

I don't know why I picked up this book since I couldn't stand the first one. However, I was pleasantly surprised... this one was so much better than the first. I actually stayed up late to finish it. There were still a few things that I didn't care for, bur overall, it was a good read.

I thought this was a cute, fun little story. I think I would have liked a bit more background, the story did go really fast. But, it was enough that I plan to continue with the series.

This was a fun collection of comics. I probably enjoyed it more than I should have. It was highly relatable.

Decided to read the tagged for World Introvert Day. I just started it, but I already feel called out and understood at the same time.

I think I didn't care for this book because of the audio narrator. I found them to be a little lifeless, I think that's why I was bored with it. The story itself was interesting, but my mind would start to wander as I was listening to it, so I missed some details. Overall, it might be a good book, but the audiobook didn't do it justice.

A Quilt for Christmas is a sweet story. I loved that it used so many different characters to tell the story, it all fit together beautifully. There were a lot of tender moments throughout and it really was one of the better novellas I have read recently.

The clock just struck midnight, it is officially the New Year.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

I wish everyone a blessed year full of happiness and love.

I think I need to set a higher goal for next year...

I struggled to get into the book, but once I got through the beginning, the story sucked me in. I think I prefer this one to the first one. They both had different feels to them, but there was just something about this one that I prefer. Of course, the ending got to me. They always take my favorite characters from me...

I enjoyed the book, but I wasn't ever surprised by it. I kept feeling like there was a big twist coming, and I was waiting for it, it just never came. I was able to guess what was going to happen from the very beginning of the story. I still enjoyed reading it and plan to read the next book. The writing was really good.

This is a 2in1, both are novellas. I really enjoyed the first one. I actually would have liked it to be a little longer because I was enjoying it so much. The second one wasn't as good. It didn't quite feel like Christmas. These books could have been set at any other time and there wouldn't have been much difference. Overall, it was an okay book.

I enjoyed the other books of the series, but since this one is focused more on secondary characters it wasn't as much fun as the usual. I did like parts of it, but there was no mystery to it. It just was another story. It did have a Christmas feel to it though, so that was nice.

The book went by faster than I was expecting. It was really easy to get into, especially since I just read the book right before it. It didn't feel like much time had passed between the two books even though I know it did. I really enjoyed the story and where it went.

This short novella was so cute. I loved seeing the family dynamics. There wasn't much to the story, but it did have a lot of family moments.

I listened to the other books in the series first, so I knew what this book was about. Naturally, it was predictable, but I still enjoyed it

My last tablet case was so big and clunky that I would have trouble holding it while I was reading, so my sister gave me this one for Christmas. It's already so much easier on my hands. Not to mention it's Harry Potter themed, how could I not love it?

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!

I hope everyone has a wonderful day full of family, friends, and reading.

Such a touching story. I remember watching the movie years ago, but I never got around to reading the book until just now. I loved the story, it was really cute.

This was basically a Hallmark movie. It was heartwarming and super sweet, I loved the importance of family in it. The story was obviously predictable, but I still enjoyed how it all wrapped up.
