Up And Coming: Norse Mythology by Neil Gaiman

Well now. I can't help but feel like Mr. Gaiman is capitalizing on the success of Marvel's Avengers, but at the same time... this is NEIL GAIMAN, PEOPLE. Norse Mythology is going to be so accurate and detailed that I can't wait. 
Interestingly enough, I've never actually read a Gaiman book, but his reputation (and work on Doctor Who) precedes him. I'm a fan without ever having cracked a novel. His rep is THAT incredible. I bought American Gods and plan to read it this month so I can stop sounding so silly raving about a book that's not even out yet, by an author I've never read. I know it's cliche to pick American Gods as your first Gaiman, but it just looks so good!
I swear, there's no paid advertising in this post...

    My personal favourite Neil Gaiman is The Graveyard Book.
    I look forward to this one.

It's gonna be everything - Mia Lansford

  It’s Gonna Be Everything – Mia Lansford Released November 24, 2020 2.5/5 I was contacted by Mia Lansford and asked to review her book – how exciting!! I was very pumped and reading the blurb it was right up my happy, can read it in a couple of hours, aisle. The premise is basically that Amber is trying to heal from an abusive relationship and Noah is trying to keep his autistic son’s teacher in his life when Amber is suddenly let go due to budget cuts. They’ve been in the same circle since college and Amber will hang out with Tyler after school a few times a week to make the transition to not having her as a teacher easier. In exchange, Noah has to help Amber regain her confidence in herself and get some tips on how to flirt with men. It’s a cute premise, and I was here for it.                 Overall, I enjoyed the story. Mia Lansford writes characters that are full of personality and wildly relatab...

One With You by Sylvia Day

One With You by Sylvia Day 4/5 This post contains mild spoilers. I have finally completed Sylvia Day’s Crossfire series, which ended with One With You . It took years. I think when I first got my hands on them it was right in the middle of the Fifty Shades of Grey phenomenon and only the first two or three books were out. So, this is quite literally years in the making. One With You has been out for quite a while but I hadn’t picked it up off of my book shelf. It was a mix of having other stuff to read and having no interest in continuing Gideon and Eva’s story. Anyways. I finally decided to commit to finishing the series but it had been so long since I’d read the other ones that I had to go read a synopsis of the novels and then it all just came rushing back. I remembered the books in detail. As far as conclusions go, it was pretty satisfying. Eva and Gideon had made massive strides with their mental health and really bloomed as a couple. I still find it absurd that al...

The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes by Suzanne Collins

*This post contains very mild spoilers for The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes * The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes Suzanne Collins 5/5 I am not at all surprised by how much I enjoyed Suzanne Collins’ novel The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes . Collins has a very particular flare for imagination and writing that drags you in and makes you forget that you’re reading. The story is immersive, and ties in enough elements of the original series to make you feel like you’ve returned to Panem without feeling like she ripped off her own story for the money that additions to popular series can bring to an author. As anyone who has done any research knows, this book centers on the 10th annual Hunger Games and the main character is none other than the reviled President Coriolanus Snow, from the original series. In The Ballad though, Snow is an 18 year old student who has been roped into being a mentor for the girl tribute from District 12 while he is completing his final year at the Aca...
