I have two shades of blue shelf. Okay one is light teal. And so is the floor but it works. #blue #readingresolutions

The dark shelf has fantasy over flow, fairy tale retellings (most of which is fantasy) and horror. Pardon the mess above as I work on redoing my shelves.

Light shelf is Harry Potter, galleys, coloring and cook books.

Oh poor Charlotte, girl gets saddled with the shittiest time ever to take over.

I'm super curious to see how thing work out for Charlotte + Jack + Jack's brother. I love me a good love triangle with brothers...when it's done well!

There's lots of alternative history-steampunk-scifi vibes with almost a Peter Pan twist. Really neat concept that just needs more world building. Sadly, that part was pretty weak and it took away from the book.

EchoLogical I actually liked this one but for some reason never finished the series. 7y
Linear This was hard for me to get into but my curiosity about Graves been making me plow through the next two books. I'm actually just starting on the last book in this Trilogy and I'm still wanting to know what's going to happen to that boy 7y

I legit haven't even read the summary. I just thought it was a cool cover.

TobeyTheScavengerMonk Hahaha my first thought before reading was “Now that is a bad-ass cover!” 7y

Mehso-so

I didn't LOVE that, but I didn't hate it either. I enjoy alternate-history plots, and this one — resistance in a world where the British won the revolutionary war — promised a lot of adventure. It delivered, but was greatly dampened by the ridiculous romance subplot. Yes, there is a love triangle and yes, it seems to come out of nowhere 🙄. However, there's a possibility the author will totally dismantle it in the next books. Here's hoping! ★★★☆☆.
