Every now and then, a book will make you feel something you hadn't expected, a feeling that takes you by surprise but one that you welcome openly and happily. When I finished Night of the Dragon by Julie Kagawa, I felt an overwhelming feeling of what I can only describe as somber joy.

Grammarly Review from a Writer’s perspective
I want to preface this first by saying this is an unpaid and unsponsered look into the Grammarly program. This is purely out of curiosity and in my own exploration of the program I hope to help those just as curious as I am. Any programs or sites that can help self-published authors succeed. This … Continue reading Grammarly Review from a Writer’s perspective
Book Review: Magnus Chase and the Gods of Asgard – The Hammer of Thor
Oh my goodness there are quite a few disclaimers for this book. First and foremost the ending does have spoilers for The Heroes of Olympus series. I believe now that Riordan intended for his audience to read the books in order so I won’t be finishing the series until I read the previous series unfortunately. … Continue reading Book Review: Magnus Chase and the Gods of Asgard – The Hammer of Thor
Book Review: Magnus Chase and the Gods of Asgard – The Sword of Summer by Rick Riordan
Ever since I finished the Percy Jackson series, I felt more inspired to continue my own writing. The infusion of Greek mythology and modern day life (modern for the time I suppose) was a fun twist.

Author Musings #1: The Hero Villain Dynamic
Hello everyone! I though I would expand on the part of my reviews where I talk about what writer’s can learn from the book.

Book Review: Percy Jackson and the Olympians – The Battle of The Labyrinth
Continuing the Percy Jackson series, The Battle of The Labyrinth feels a lot more action packed than the previous novels. There’s also a surprising amount of character development, however not all of it is for the best unfortunately. I will say however if you do read the book to ignore the reviews on the back … Continue reading Book Review: Percy Jackson and the Olympians – The Battle of The Labyrinth

Hello everyone! Not to cause any alarm, but I'm a bit burnt out after the past two weeks.

Book Review: Percy Jackson and the Olympians – The Titan’s Curse
Continuing my journey through the Percy Jackson series, Percy Jackson and the Olympians – The Titan’s Curse proves to be an exciting and fun story.

Book Review: Percy Jackson and The Olympians – The Sea of Monsters
The Percy Jackson series continues to surprise me with how much I’ve been enjoying it.

While there is some more world building and … Continue reading Book Review: Percy Jackson and The Olympians – The Sea of Monsters
