My Next Breath is a gripping, emotional account of an unimaginably traumatic experience. I found myself genuinely moved by the author’s road to recovery — his story is inspiring and, at times, raw and harrowing. The inclusion of photos in the physical book and real 911 call excerpts in the audiobook (read by the author Read more

Whew! What an amazing book. Broken Country is a powerful, emotional, and gripping read that blends genres beautifully—it’s part love story, part murder mystery, and part courtroom drama. Told in a dual timeline, the story unravels slowly, with each chapter peeling back another layer of truth. The pacing is definitely a slow burn, but I Read more

The Tenant by Freida McFadden

I’m giving this one 3.5 stars mostly because of the ending. I love a good twist, but only when it still feels grounded in reality.

Lore Olympus Vol 1 & 2 by Rachel Smythe

I honestly didn’t expect to love Lore Olympus as much as I did—it’s the rom-com I didn’t know I needed. This fresh, modern take on Greek mythology is both captivating and gorgeously illustrated. The artwork is stunning, with vibrant, moody colors that bring so much emotion and depth to every panel. Each image feels intentional, Read more
