I am currently attending Harvard and pursuing a degree in Humanities. My passion is books and writing. Books taught me things about myself, the world, and society in ways I never thought possible.

Thanks to every bookish bestie in the book world, it has allowed me to spread my joy of reading to people worldwide!

Now, I don’t want to give any spoilers away, so I won’t be giving any specific details (you’ll have to get your copy to find out more), BUT I will provide you with an overview!

In Every Generation by Kendare Blake is a new book I just got from Disney Books. It’s the first book I received from Disney Books, AND it’s an early advanced reader copy! How awesome is that? Needless to say, I dove into this book headfirst and did not put it down until I finished. I cannot tell you how much I enjoyed this YA fantasy read too!

The Wrath of Horus by Catherine-Schaff Stump is today’s featured read! I’m so excited to share more about this book and chat with you all about it! First, I have to say, look at this cover!
