[Artwork ^ the property of David Fickling Books (Penguin Imprint) and Knopf Books] I really don’t know how informative of a review this is going to be as I sit here like a hyper fangirl, unable to type because all I can think is ‘YAAAAS.’ [Trigger Warning: Sexual Assault/Rape Scene,…

Harry Potter Book Night & The Week Ahead

Eden Chip
I know yesterday was three mini-reviews, but last night I started another reader copy and now that I’ve finished, I’m going to write this while it’s still fresh. I thought this was a very good sci-fi/dystopia read. I loved the use of chips and how there was always a blurred…
