Did We Read the Same Book?

Send me a message! This week I'm talking about Game On , by Navessa Alan, the third book in the Into Darkness series. This one had a little bit of everything, blackmail, underground gambling, fake dating, family secrets, tattoos, and enough drama to keep me entertained. We also need to discuss that plot twist, the family drama, and the ending... because I definitely have thoughts. Plus, I may...

Send me a message! I spent most of House of Sky and Breath wondering why this book was so long... and then Sarah J. Maas hit me with THAT ending. This week I'm discussing the characters, the pacing, the twists, and the crossover that have me immediately reaching for the next book. Did we read the same book?

Send me a message! This week I finally forced myself to read House of Earth and Blood by Sarah J. Maas…after attempting it FOUR separate times. Did I understand everything? No.  Did I spend most of the book confused? Absolutely.  Did I end up emotionally devastated anyway? Unfortunately, yes. We’re talking murder, demons, magical drugs, broody fallen angels, friendship trauma, portals to hell, and...

Send me a message! In this episode we visit a similar storyline but with new characters and point of view. This week I read Her Soul for Revenge by Harley Laroux.  This one was not very original, but it offered a lot of action and spice. Maybe too much spice for my taste...but I finished it anyway!

Send me a message! Ghosts. Dating apps. A serial killer. This week I’m reviewing Ask for Andrea by Noelle Ihli , a fast-paced thriller told from the POV of three murdered girls trying to get justice from beyond the grave.  Messy thoughts, honest reactions, and my final verdict—was it actually good?

Send me a message! This week on Did We Read the Same Book? , I dive into Her Soul to Take by Harley Laroux… completely blind. No synopsis. No prep. Just vibes. What I thought was a dark romance quickly turned into demons, sacrifices, creepy cult energy, and a VERY bold main character making questionable life choices. We’ve got:  – A ghost-hunting YouTuber who accidentally summons a demon   – A mor...

Send me a message! This week we’re diving into Little Secrets by Jennifer Hillier and… I have QUESTIONS! We start with every parent’s worst nightmare- a child disappearing in seconds and somehow it only gets MORE chaotic from there. Cheating husbands, stalking, secret apps, emotional breakdowns, and yes… a hitman??? I went in blind, built about 15 different theories, trusted absolutely no one, and...

Send me a message! This week I reread Project Hail Mary by Andy Weir and I forgot just how much science is in this book… and how much I absolutely do NOT understand it. But somehow that doesn’t matter because the story is so good. The real highlight of this book though? Rocky the alien “spider rock” who ends up becoming Grace’s best friend. Their friendship honestly carried the whole story for me....

Send me a message! I picked up Beyond the Wand by Tom Felton expecting fun Harry Potter behind the scenes stories and ended up getting something much more personal. This book was incredibly funny, nostalgic, and surprising heartfelt and emotional.  I also talk about my brief interaction with Tom Felton vandalizing my book after seeing him in Broadway during his reprisal role in The Cursed Child!

Send me a message! This is disturbing, thought provoking, and left me with more questions than answers, especially the ending. In this episode I talk about Tender Is the Flesh by Augustina Bazterrica.

Send me a message! This week I’m diving into Forged in Blood by Sadie Kincaid, a paranormal reverse-harem full of vampires, magical bonding, emotional chaos, and a main character whose feelings literally control the weather. I talk about what hooked me, what felt rushed, the scenes that made me pause, and why I’m still curious enough to keep going with the series. Did we read the same book?

Send me a message!  The tropes were troping, the twists weren’t exactly shocking, and yet… I still ate it up. In this episode I’m unpacking Empire of Flames  by Marion Blackwood, what I liked, what I questioned, and why predictable fantasy can still be fun. 

Send me a message! You guys told me to read Credence by Penelope Douglas, so I pushed through and finished it...even when I wasn’t enjoying it. This isn’t a recap. It’s me processing why the characters lost me, why the relationships didn’t work for me, and why the ending didn’t land the way I hoped it would. If you loved this book, I’m genuinely curious to hear your thoughts.  Did we read the same...

Send me a message! You all recommended Under Your Scars by Ariel N. Anderson and now I need to talk about it. This isn’t a recap, it’s an emotional processing session for a book that hurt more than I expected and stuck with me long after I finished it, I can't even look at pancakes now without crying!

Send me a message! The Passengers by John Marrs has too many characters and twists to neatly explain, but what really stuck with me was how crazy it felt, especially knowing self-driving cars already exist. We’re talking about trapped passengers, internet voting on who deserves to live, nonstop twists, and why this book stressed me out more than I expected. So...Did we read the same book?

Send me a message! This week I’m talking about The Tenant by Frieda McFadden. A quick, twisty thriller that was fun, easy to read, and… not her best. We’re getting into predictable twists, an unnecessary ending, and why this one still works as a light in-between book. So...Did we read the same book? Let me know in the comments!

Send me a message! This week I’m talking about Alchemised by SenLinYu, a dark fantasy about memory loss, war, and loving someone when everything is falling apart. We’re talking about Helena, Kaine, the messed-up present, the tragic past, and the ending that honestly wrecked me. It’s heavy, emotional, and one of the most memorable books I’ve read in a long time. So… did we read the same book?

Send me a message! This week I'm talking about Haunting Adeline by H.D Carlton, the dark romance that had me side-eyeing myself while turning every page. We're talking about obsession, stalking, morally gray chaos, and why I was still completely invested. It's messy, intense, and not for everyone, which made it even more interesting! Let me know in the comments....did we read the sa...

Send me a message! In this episode, I’m recapping Brimstone by Callie Hart, the sequel to Quicksilver , where Saeris is suddenly a half-vampire, half-fae queen with too much power and even more enemies. We’re talking fae politics, magical chaos, Fisher’s name change (still not over it), and one very questionable resurrection. It’s dramatic, messy, and a lot, so let’s talk about it. So… did we read...

Send me a message! This week I’m recapping Quicksilver , a romantasy featuring a young woman with unmatched abilities, a desert with no night, a mysterious pool of metal, and a broody man who literally rises from the floor to change everything. It’s full of familiar tropes, fast attraction, and plenty of spice, and while it’s not the most original story out there, it was definitely entertaining wh...
