Book Review for Gallant by V.E. Schwab
Hello! I took a little bit of a hiatus due to the holidays and other stuff, but now I am back. This post is going to be about the book Gallant by V.E. Schwab. After i had read what the book was about, I was really interested in it and once I picked it up I couldn’t put it down.
This is a fantasy/horror/paranormal novel. It’s about a girl named Olivia Prior, who had lived most of her life at Merilance School for girls, and the only thing she has from any of her family is a journal that was her mother’s. She gets a letter from a place called Gallant telling her to come home. Now there are a couple of issues with the letter, 1. Gallant is the place that her mother wrote in her journal to never go to and 2. No one at Gallant sent that letter. She goes to Gallant and discovers there is a secret about the place, mainly involving the wall in the garden. There is another Gallant, but a shadow version, with a Master of the House and he will do anything to get out.
This was definitely a book I could not put down. I know the saying goes “don’t judge a book by it cover”, but with this book I really loved how the cover art was done, and then read the back and was like “this sounds really good I’m going to read it.” I’m really glad I did. I will say some parts were a bit slow, but once I got into it, I wanted to know what happened next.
Book Review for Delirium Trilogy by Lauren Oliver
The Delirium Trilogy is written by Lauren Oliver and it’s a book series about what could happen if love was considered a disease. These books are dystopian fiction and are definitely an interesting read.
The story is about a girl named Lena, who lives in a world where love is considered a disease. On her 18th birthday she is schedule to get a surgery that will cure her. She is ready for that, and ready for the life that has been chosen for her. But, when she meets a boy names Alex, she starts to realize that she might not want that life anymore.
I’ll start off by saying that this book is written really well, I love the relationships between some of the characters, and there were definitely surprises that I was not expecting. Now I’ll be honest here, I am a little 50/50 with these books. While I did really enjoy it, but the author did something different with a part of the book. Now that part kind of left me unsatisfied with/it left me with a feeling of wanting more. But, I think because of that part, it has also giving me something to think about, and also brings these books back to mind every now and again. After reading these books I can really see why she did it, because it goes along with what the books are about or the underlining message of the books. I really do recommend them, because they will leave you thinking.

Book Review for Red Winter Trilogy by Annette Marie
The Red Winter trilogy is written by Annette Marie. if you like Inuyasha or Kamisama Kiss this is definitely a book for you. This is a story involves Japanese Mythology with slow burn romance mixed in.
The story is about a girl named Emi, and she was chosen to be a vessel for a goddess, but when she saves a kitsune name Shiro who ends up in her debt her world turns upside down. Her and Shiro go on an adventure for to search for answers.
I honestly love these books. I love the way this author wrote this book. There is so much character development that goes on, and the relationship between the characters is amazing as well. I will say these books really did make me cry in some areas, I definitely had to put it down a couple of times just to collect myself. Also, the art in these book is beautifully done throughout. It really gives a nice visual to the books. There is definitely more I could say about these books, but if I say too much more, I’ll probably end up spoiling things on accident and I definitely don’t want to do that for people who are interested in reading these books.
Things That I wish were in the Harry Potter Movies That Happened in the Books *Spoilers*
Hello today’s post is going to be a little different today after my past couple of book review posts. I thought it would be a fun idea to talk about some of the things that happened in the Harry Potter books that didn’t happen in the movies and I wish they did. I recently reread the Harry Potter series, now it had been a while since I last read them, and I honestly forgot some of the things that happened in the books. So, these will be a series of posts basically talking about each book.
I am going to start with the first Harry Potter book Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone or as it is also known as Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone. One thing I will start off with right off the bat is Peeves. I wish I could of gotten to see him in the Harry Potter movies he is such a trickster is the Harry Potter series as he is almost always causing some kind of prank on the students and bugging Filch. I wish we got the hear the Sorting Hat sing his song, he makes one up each year for the Sorting Ceremony. I think it would of been interesting to see the beginning of the book where we are introduced to the Dursleys, and Vernon Dursley is going through his day and the weird encounters caused by the Wizarding community celebrating that He-who-shall-not-be-named is gone. Another scene I wish I could of seen is that part where Fred and George are bouncing snowballs off of Professor Quirrel’s turban. Little did they know they were actually hitting Voldemort with those snowballs.
I hope you enjoyed this little post and let me know if there are any scenes that you wished you could of seen. And again I will be doing a post like this for each book so keep on the lookout for those.
Book Review for As Old as Time (A Disney Twisted Tale) by Liz Braswell
As Old as Time is a twist on the Disney story Beauty and the Beast. Beauty and the Beast is one of my favorite Disney movies, so I definitely had to give this a try. The question this book is answer is “What if Belle’s mother cursed the Beast?”
In the beginning of the book it’s starts out with the story we already know, and a bit of a backstory with Belle’s parents. When Belle touches the rose that was given to the Beast by the enchantress, we start to see a shift in the story as they learn more about the mystery around Belle’s mother.
I really enjoyed this book it had a lot of twists that I wasn’t expecting, and it was also an interesting take on the story. The book is a bit darker than the original tale, which I really like, and it kept my interest. Beauty and the Beast as I said before is one of my favorite Disney movies so it really wasn’t that hard. I have read a couple other twisted tales (which I will probably review in the future), but I haven’t read all of them, so I am excited to continue them and see what happens in the other stories
