A Court of Thorns and Roses is a fairytale retelling that draws from the popular tale Beauty and the Beast. I was immediately drawn to the parallels Sarah J. Maas creates here, giving the plot her own spin and building on the characters whilst staying true to its essence. Overall, it is a good book for teens looking for a typical fantasy novel filled with young adult cliches. However, personally, I would recommend thinking twice before picking it up.

This one is a quirky children’s book dealing with friendship, love and saving the world, one person at a time!

The book draws from the movie Lego Batman but even if you haven’t watched the movie you can definitely read the book without missing out on anything. I promise.

After having to struggle with this one for a while, I’ve realized that History Is All You Left Me is a fairly good book but just not for me.

The first couple of pages were excellent. It was somewhere in the middle where the plot started going downhill and by the end the whole experience was irreversibly damaged.

Sherlock and Poirot fans, this is the mystery for you!
