Book Review: Up from the Downtrodden/Katya Mills


Rating: 3 out of 5.

Review: It is rather a unique set of poems. Some were easy to understand, others not so much. It could have been refined a little more. The poems are not for everyone, but I have quite a few favorites. Favorites: Journey into the light, Trans.am, Incar.nation, You cannot care too much, Tbh #7 and Lip.stick just to name a few.

Wanted: Vampire’s Assistant (Moonhaven Cove, 1)/Dusty Rose


Rating: 3 out of 5.

Review: It wins points for being cute and cozy! But it feels like it was missing something. I expected more conflict, more chaos. Things just instantly happened and worked out and it seemed too easy. Between the main characters everything seemed to be so sweet and effortlessly done. There needed to be something more. It just fell a little short for me.

Book Review: The Sea Witch: A Little Mermaid Retelling (For the Love of the Villain, 1)/Rebecca F. Kenney


Rating: 5 out of 5.

Review: The perfect retelling of A Little Mermaid I didn’t know I needed. There was a perfect amount of spice between the characters, and nothing felt rushed. The story flowed beautifully. A fresh perspective focusing on the villain and their ‘ever after’. The Sea Witch is worth the read and will have you falling in love. After all, why shouldn’t the villain get to find love? P.S. not everybody is who they seem to be, and you come to realize who the real villain is.

Book Review: No Longer Human by Junji Ito


Rating: 5 out of 5.

Review: Out of all the books written by Ito, No Longer Human sends you into a complete spiral of wtf’s?! This one was the most mind-altering of stories. It awakes a nightmare only to leave you in trauma. If you take this reading journey prepare your mind for the most horrific roller coaster ride you’ve ever been on.

Book Review: 143 Visuals to Inspire you to Take Action by Scott Terrance

Rating: * * *

Book Review:

Some of the visuals were hard to follow because they had a lot of info, or it was too jumbled. Those I just bypassed. Other visuals were very colorful and informative. I don’t think it inspired me, but I did take some notes from it. I feel it should have been better executed as it feels like they were all tossed in a random collection. Maybe adding themes would have helped refine it.
