BOOK REVIEW: WOVEN IN MOONLIGHT BY ISABEL IBANEZ 4.5 out of 5 stars. "Despite the danger, my protest had burst from my lips, from my heart. Because words empowered by justice can never be silenced."  This was one of my most anticipated books of 2020. From the minute I read the description for this novel, I was obsessed. Bolivian politics, magic, a decoy Condesa - all right up my alley.   Ximena is Condesa Catalina's decoy and her loyalty and love for her people made me love her from page 1. The characters in this novel are incredibly well written and developed throughout. Getting to find out everyone's motivations behind their actions really takes the reader to a whole new level whilst trying to decide whose side you are on.  Ximena's journey through the novel is inspired, overwhelming and definitely shows a moral struggle in a way that the reader is left struggling too, rather than assuming straight away who is the good and who is the evil

BOOK REVIEW: YES NO MAYBE SO BY BECKY ALBERTALLI AND AISHA SAEED

Yes No Maybe So? DEFINITELY A YES FROM ME!  4.5 out of 5 stars.  This was a really entertaining, really heart touching, fast paced book.  Jamie and Maya were best friends when they were little kids, and now that they’re 17 they find themselves again and reconnect. They’re paired together to canvass for their local election and things go on from there.  Jamie and Maya, along with Sara and Sophie and every other character in this book feel as real as it gets. They’re anxious, they’re flawed, they’re worried, they’re happy, they’re hopeful; all at the same time. We get an insight into both Maya’s and Jamie’s brain and it’s refreshing to see that these characters are inherently flawed in the most realistic, sympathetic way possible.  Becky and Aisha do a great job at exploring religion, politics, friendship, family, school, coming of age in such a way that makes you feel that maybe all the things in your head are in everyone’s else heads too.  The story flows pr

March Reading Wrap Up!

Hi everyone, I hope you are all doing well during these uncertain times and keeping safe! I personally have found that keeping my head stuck in a book at all times is helping keeping me sane and from spiralling.  So I thought today I would put up a post about all the books I read during the month of March with links to all the reviews I left for each of them, in case someone out there is in need of inspiration on what to read!  1) Havenfall by Sara Holland  4 out of 5 stars! Havenfall was really a enjoyable read for me and the scenery in the novel was just incredible. All throughout reading it I kept picturing Banff, Canada as the location for Havenfall and it just swept me off my feet.  Full review here:  https://www.goodreads.com/review/show/3143338515?book_show_action=false&from_review_page=1 2) The Raven and The Dove by Kaitlyn Davis  5 out of 5 stars! I was lucky enough to have been given an ARC of this book to read and review and it's since
