  • Spindle Fire by Lexa Hillyer | Book Review

      I have given this book for free for an honest review.   A kingdom burns. A princess sleeps. This is no fairy tale. It all started with the burning of the spindles. No. It all started with a curse… Half sisters Isabelle and Aurora are polar opposites: Isabelle is the king’s headstrong illegitimate daughter,…

  • Princesses, Turtles and Birds | Watcha Reading Wednesday

    Spindle Fire by Lexa Hillyer I have given this book for free for a honest review. I am currently making my way through the novel, but even though it is marketed as a YA it feels a lot as a Middle Grade. I don’t love but I don’t hate it so far. Stay tune for…

  • Spooky Halloween | Watcha Reading Wednesday

    The Dreadful Tale of Prosper Redding by Alexandra Bracken I am currently reading this spooky middle grade story of a 12-year-old Prosper Redding who’s life pretty much sucks because his ancestors made a deal with a fiend and then pissed the fiend off. Even though it is a MG, it doesn’t read like one. It…
