Review: Everything is Beautiful by Mira T. Lee

I'm not going to lie, but it's been a long while since I read this book. This review will likely be a "mini" review, but I'm going to do my best but it was sooooo good! The story follows Miranda and Lucia, Chinese-American sisters who are very different from one another. It is a story …

Summerland by Hannu Rajaniemi

Summerland had such an interesting premise and it was pulled off fairly well. In Summerland, the afterlife has been discovered and colonized by the British, much to the chagrin of the Russians. Set in late 1930s England, this sci-fi novel is also a spy noir thriller, and I really enjoyed the mash-up. The spies followed are …

Mini-Review: As Told by Things edited by E. D. E. Bell

Review: The Elizas by Sara Shepard

Review: The Flight Attendant by Chris Bohjahlian

This thriller by an author I adore was definitely engaging and intriguing. It follows Cassandra Bowden, a flight attendant with some personal problems and an addiction. She drinks too much and sleeps around, but lives her life on her terms. One morning, about to board a flight to Dubai, she wakes up in a hotel …
