Staff Reviews
Book Review: The Bride Test
With a driven plot, diverse characters and realistic perspectives, what more do you need? I loved this book.
Book Review: A Small Collection Of Happinesses
Told in a series of vignettes, touches of magical realism give a sense of wonder and meaning to the smallest things.
Book Review: The Catch
The character development, acceptance and understanding in this book kept me eagerly turning every page. I can’t wait for more.
Book Review: How It Works Out
Intimate & sophisticated at times and just straight up weird in others, it gives the vibe of being written in blood and glitter gel pen.
